While I am fully prepared to admit that I hated this slightly less than I expected to, I also officially give up on Guy Ritchie. Disney's original Aladdin is not one of my favourite Disney flicks, but I do like it. And although I'm sure there are people out there who will appreciate this live action do-over more than me, I do find it difficult to believe anyone would think this one is the better of the two versions. …

If you enjoy reading my Spoiler-Free reviews, please follow my blog :) What a wonderful surprise! I didn’t watch any trailers or clips, I completely stayed away from any sort of marketing, but I couldn’t hide from the negative feedback that social media was presenting. People online were skeptical of how good Will Smith‘s Genie would be, of how Mena Massoud (Aladdin) and Naomi Scott (Jasmine) were not the best …

Saw this one last night and I must say I wasn't sure what to expect but I was extremely impressed by what I saw the movie made me laugh and smile theres plenty of action for Young boys and alot of music costumes and romance for young girls the only problem I see is there are shots of swinging breasts due to the wardrobe back then also the action may be a bit much for the youngest of kids but it's pure edge of the …

Why do people hate this movie???? If you do a live action THIS was as cloae to perfection as you could get. True to every aspect of the caryoon and honoring the memory of Robin Williams without Will 's Genie trampling on the iconic cartoon portrayal. Visually stunning. Music was spot on.

Attempting to suffer through the live action Aladdin & it's even worse than I imagined The absolute impossibility of replacing Robin William's performance aside, it's still a bad film Wooden acting, weak script, EXTREMELY BAD SINGING, failure to capture the magic of action sequences... Just... Bad
How this was made: an AI model (deepseek-v4-flash) read 34 of the 216 public posts we collected about this film and wrote the summary, likes and dislikes, citing the posts behind each point ([n] opens the post).

60 of 226 · most liked firstPeople be saying “you can’t put the genie back in the lamp/bottle/bag” when the literal most popular film about genies, Aladdin, ends with Jafar turning into a genie and getting shoved the fuck back into his new lamp. Carry that energy into 2026. Make AI so unpopular that govts are forced to act.
neutral · AI labelView post →In the film ‘Aladdin,’ the villain Jafar wants absolute power and so he wishes to be a genie and this mistake traps him in a lamp forever. What a fucking dumbass.

That said, I hope Fat Satan never finds out how much oil is under Genovia.
neutral · AI labelView post →Aladdin was never my favorite Disney movie as a kid but my kids were watching the live action remake last night and I'm sitting in a waiting room where the cartoon version is on right now and it's really absurd how much better the animated version is

neutral · AI labelView post →I haven’t rewatched either film since, but I remember thinking that Aladdin was worse than Lion King, in that the changes and additions made it actively miserable to get through, while at least in Lion King you could close your eyes and pretend you’re just experiencing Original Lion King But Worse

neutral · AI labelView post →When I was 9 I got to become the proud owner of my very own Return of Jafar VHS. I had only seen Aladdin once and, after about 3847234 viewings of RoJ I insisted it was the superior film. Here is Robin Williams sound-alike Dan Castellaneta making NO effort to not sound like Homer Simpson.

neutral · AI labelView post →I don't think Aladdin 3 is a good film overall, but the concept of King Midas' hand as a relic is extremely cool. Its existence, and how it was hidden away magically levitating in a temple on a traveling island, imply the most fascinating backstory. Also, this Genie quote is the funniest ever.
negative · AI labelView post →just got word from the next disney live action remake, turns out Aladdin maintains a hustle grindset to become extremely wealthy and makes Jasmine fall for him by employing pick-up artistry, so that the film shall resonate with modern audiences more
neutral · AI labelView post →okay I watched Aladdin for the first time since childhood (CAV laserdisc on a PVM 2950Q too!) and wow what a deeply problematic extremely beautiful film
neutral · AI labelView post →Robin Williams voiced Batty Koda in Ferngully specifically because of its themes centered around protecting nature. Jeffrey Katzenberg actively tried to sabotage the film because he didn't want Williams in Ferngully AND Aladdin. It was never meant to be a huge film it was more about the message.
neutral · AI labelView post →I haven't watched Aladdin in decades yet my dream last night had the entire A Whole New World sequence, but only Jasmine. But also a scene where Aladdin was also a girl. I think I want an all lesbian Aladdin movie now.

positive · AI labelView post →After watching the Disney's "Aladdin" animated trilogy once again, I realised how underrated of a character Iago is, especially on the 2nd film after all his redemption arc. Hence, I decided to give him a special treatment 'cuz deep inside he actually bebby. #fatfurs
neutral · AI labelView post →Disney was undeniably on one in the early 90s and the pairing of mostly traditional animation with a few CGI flourishes really works, but also, Aladdin is Orientalism: The Movie
negative · AI labelView post →Aladdin has always been my favorite Disney film and I loved The Cave of Wonders playset when I was a kid! It’s a simple toy but like the great playsets it’s a big face with a reverse interior, traps, treasures and simple but engaging play features. I’m ecstatic to have it again!
positive · AI labelView post →It's why he refused to do the second Aladdin film, then only agreed to do the third in return for absolute insane cash. I don't think people realise that Williams, in Aladdin, was the turning point in Disney realizing a "celebrity" voice over was absolute BANK in their movies.

neutral · AI labelView post →I’d argue that the parrot in Aladdin was a worse offender. Bringing in pop culture references and Hollywood actors for lead roles was one thing, but actively ensuring every animated film for years had a wise cracking sarcasm machine with a funny voice is something else.

It will never cease to befuddle me that Disney hasn’t put two and two together that they both own the Muppets IP and want to cash in on nostalgia for all their old movies like Aladdin with live action remakes no one seems to want. Just start churning out Muppet remakes! Or shit gimme a Muppet Star Wars and I’ll start counterfeiting money to go see them. The Muppets improve basically everything they are involved with

I generally watch a lot of horror movies, documentaries or 90s action b-movies, but there are times when I want something a little bit lighter; I want to feel the bittersweet warmth of nostalgia, the carefree attitudes of the characters and the silly, wholesome plot lines. As an early millennial I of course watched DuckTales, TaleSpin and Chip 'n' Dale, Darkwing Duck, Aladdin and so on... on Saturday and Sunday mornings…
