I can see why people like this movie, but I just couldn't enjoy it. I got the humour and the message, but it made me extremely cringy and uncomfortable the entire time, especially knowing the cause of Robin Williams's death.

Apart from this, it was an interesting aspect, taking into consideration how suicide affects other people, and how sometimes a lie can help people heal, because they can relate to somebody's pain. Is it worth though, creating this fake impression of a person nobody really knew, just to be able to deliver a message. And how selfless or selfish the intentions really were?

First entry in Angus Donald's new 'Fire Born' Viking series, in which the main character is what we would term as a Berserker (although never named as such).

This is set in an even earlier time period than his 'Holcroft Blood' series (set during the time of Charles II) or even his even-earlier set 'Outlaw' series (about Robin Hood), but - unfortunately - I found it to be inferior to both.

That's not to say that it's bad; just that it didn't resonate (with the twists not really hitting home) as much with me as this earlier series did.

I think this is one of the strongest Disney movies. I think the plot is great and the characters are great. Abu is obviously my favorite. It's hard to watch this film, though, because of Robin Williams, but it also makes me appreciate his work so much more. I think he is the best genie and the animations they did along with him pushes him that much further.

The soundtrack to this film is phenomenal and it makes me want to see the Broadway production just to hear the arrangements live. This definitely isn't my favorite Disney movie, but it's a good one,
