Rickey A. Mossow Jr. (689 KP) rated Aladdin (2019) in Movies
Aug 12, 2019
Good yet unnecessary adaptation of the classic animated film.
The movie did a good job of capturing the essence of the original animated film. Cast and set were able to recreate much of the fun and adventure of the original, a feat Disney is often able to do. Where the film suffers is in its foray into modern social movements seemingly for no reason, and the absence of two key voices, Gilbert Gottfried and the incomparable Robin Williams. Will Smith and Alan Tudyk are sufficient but don't come close to the former iconic role players. Overall, the film was good, yet in the grand scheme of things seemed unnecessary.
