I recently re-read this book the yesterday when I was sick and felt like dying. I loved the history within it, and the characters. There were some elements I abhorred, but they made sense because of the storyline, so I sucked it up and dealt with it.

A new world to start a new series
This series started creates an amazing new world. The characters are very well developed. The fantasy elements are well done and believable. The right blend of action and drama is used to catch the readers attention.

The best book in the series. Ties everything together and doesn't have nearly as many recycled plot elements as the others in the series. Loved every minute of it.

Better than expected
A classic reborn
Will Smith does a great job as genie and made the character his own.
The new elements add comedy and extra romance to the tale.
A cute and sweet remake for a new generation

"It’s Ted Neeley and Carl Anderson, 1973 if I’m not mistaken. It’s basically, he’s out in the desert, singing and dancing. It’s almost a little acid trippy, and yet, within these very campy elements and this big musical production, there’s obviously an impactful story and some great performances."
