Summary: One of my wishes coming true!
Review: I have been waiting for this movie to come out on DVD from the first day I bought a DVD player! This is by far the best Disney movie ever. It has the perfect blend of fun, adventure, romance and comedy! The songs are beautiful and the characters imaginative. Though Lion King and Beauty and the Beast both come in a close second, I don't think Disney has ever before or will ever again make a movie that is this good. Even the recent Finding Nemo didn't hold a candle to it in my eyes. You'll laugh, you'll cry and then you'll probably laugh again! Iago and the Genie are two of the greatest characters ever in any Disney movie. I love it because the characters aren't so one dimensional. Jasmine is more then just a pretty princess waiting for a man to come rescue her. She's strong willed and fiery. And Aladdin, well...he's more charismatic and well rounded then any Prince Charming ever was. This is a must for all fairy tale fans. It's a must for all Disney fans. This is a must for all who love happily ever after stories.

Summary: It's Like Humour & Romance Mixed In 1!!
Review: "Aladdin" has been an all-time favourite too millions of people around the world! The film was released into theaters in 1992 and came to video in 1993! This movie is a really great and colorful movie to add too any Disney collector's collection! Like "The Little Mermaid" and "Beauty and the Beast", "Aladdin" is a musical which includes humour and romance as well (Most Disney Classics are like that too!) The story takes place in the poor town of Agrabah, where "street rat" Aladdin (Scott Weinger) and his Monkey Abu live. They are poor and must steal food to survive on the streets. Aladdin falls in love with the Sultan's daughter Jasmine (Linda Larkin) and the two eventually become friends. By royal orders, It is time for Jasmine to get married (and it must be too a prince ONLY!) She does not want to rush and wants to wait for her true love too come.Jafar (Jonathan Freeman) is the Sultan's "trustworthy" Vizier who wants to rule the world and gain the power of being a Sultan However, he needs the "magic lamp" too do this, so he gets Aladdin to get the lamp for him in the "Cave of Wonders". Aladdin finds the lamp and meets the famous and humourus "Genie of the Lamp" (Robin Williams) The Genie changes Aladdin to a prince so he can gain the love of Princess Jasmine. Jasmine and Aladdin fall in love together, but when Jafar's sidekick parrott Iago (Gilbert Gottfried) gets ahold of the lamp and Jafar rules Agrabah, it is going to take Aladdin's courage and bravery (With the help of the Genie) to defeat Jafar and save Agrabah! Back in 1992, The film became the highest-grossing animated film earning over $200 million internationally (!) The film also won Academy Awards for Best Song ("A Whole New World") and Best Original Score. That's how popular the film became! In fact, the film and characters were so popular that it came out with 2 sequels: "Return of Jafar" in 1994 and "The King Of Theives" in 1996. There was also a TV series named "Aladdin" which aired from 1993-1995. Who can forget the famous quote "Jafar! Jafar! He's Our Man, If He Can't Do It.....GREAT! This film is definetly a film that will entertain the entire family! Hopefully, it will be re-released onto video soon so the people who never had the chance to get a copy of the film are able to get one! 90 Minutes.

Summary: An Ancient Tale Retold as Only as Disney Could
Review: This was a movie that could easily be called a typical Disnay animated movie. Most of the time "typical" is not a discripter used when writing a rave review about a film, but when in this case it works well. A typically Disney film is always enjoyable and this is no exception. This is a light hearted romance that revolves around the story of Aladdin and his magic lamp. As an adult I still enjoy watching this film with my young son. Both my son and I laughed hysterically at the Genie who stole the show, but I wouldn't have expected anything less from a Robin Williams preformance. I would most certainly recommend this film to anyone.

Summary: It's a hit!
Review: One of Disney's better "late release" animation films, proving once again that the studio can still produce the magic. I'm basing this review from the VHS tape version (since the DVD is not released yet), however, I believe Disney Studios will probably continue to follow the path they've set with other DVD releases -- that is, look for a straight VHS to DVD transfer. You'll get the film, but little else. Naturally, the DVD will outlast a VHS tape and the quality of both the picture and sound should be higher. On the movie, it's a great rendition of the tales of 1,001 Arabian Nights (with Disney's own plot and characterizations) which will entertain members of the entire family. Robin Williams does an exceptionally fine job as the voice of the Genie -- giving him comic personality and wit. The story line is a good one and is followed by two 'add-on' sequels ('Return of Jafar' and 'King of Thieves'), both worth purchasing when they become available (Williams is missing from 'Return', but back for 'Thieves'). The film's music is top rate and in line with many of their earlier successful animations (The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast). All in all, a worthwhile purchase for your home library. Children and adults will enjoy this one for decades to come. ~P~

Summary: Another great Disney classic
Review: "Aladdin" is about Aladdin, a street dweller who has dreams that one day he will find peace and not have to live the life he's living being a thief. He finds Jasmine and falls in love at once, but there's one problem. Jasmine is a princess and only a prince can marry her. Jasmine is plagued by the law that says she has to marry a prince and she wants to see the world. She's tired of being stuck inside the castle all the time. Aladdin has to find a way to get to Jasmine, but all he has is his mischievous monkey friend Abu and, oh yeah, the Genie. There's also a mean sorcerer, Jafar, who might give Aladdin even a greater challenge. "Aladdin" is a great movie in every way. It tells a great story of how being yourself is sometimes the best thing to do. The Genie gives the movie a lot of playful humor. All the characters are interesting and the movie has some great effects and graphics. Also, the songs are perfect for the movie, especially "A Whole New World." The movie ranges from humorous such as with the Genie's antics, to exciting such as the carpet ride through a place that is self-destructing. If you like Disney movies or if you know somebody in your family that does, I recommend getting "Aladdin."

Summary: Hyperactive Robin at one of his best!!!
Review: Homer Simpson's voice is used in following sequals..(Dan Castanella)--he just doesnt have the crazyness as Robin has--
Robin is hyperactively flamboyant as the Genie!!! And his multipe impressions---!!! And Jafar's wacky puns in the final battle
(dont toy with me, things are unraveling fast now boy,
get the point, perhaps you like to ssssseeeee how ssssnake
like i can be, im just getting warmed up) And Gilbert Gotfried as a compliment to Robin Williams--Iago
just has hilarious one-liners!!! Michael Crawford should have replaced Peabo on a
"Whole New World"

Summary: Absolutely Stunning!
Review: (Sorry if it seems boring at first, but don't worry, I get to the point.)
I remember the first time I saw this movie. It was sitting on our video shelf upstairs, and, despite having this movie for years, I had never watched it. My sister was babysitting me(she had moved out of the house) and it was a special time for both of us. We wanted to watch a movie, and she brought "Aladdin" downstairs. I informed her that I had never seen this movie, before, and that I wasn't sure that I would like it. My sister told me that this was a good movie, so I agreed. Boy, am I glad that I did! From the first scene(with the merchant displaying his products), I knew I would enjoy "Aladdin". To this day it is one of my favorite movies of all time(and I'm a teenager!). Why do I like it so much? Three reasons:
1) The plot. Even as a kid, I loved the romance, laughed at the jokes(excluding some of the many references by Genie, of course), and experienced the emotions of the scenes as the crew intended.
2) The voices. The characters just seem so real! From The Sultan- a joyful, peppy, and funny little fellow- to Jafar- who doesn't seem as real as the others, but, I admit, the way he is presented in this movie is kind of hard to work with. I absolutely LOVE the voices! They are so good at portraying the characters!
3) The soundtrack. I am completely in love with the soundtrack(I have the original CD and the Spanish version of it. Can you tell I'm obsessed?). Kudos to Lea Salonga and Brad Kane. "A Whole New World" is by far the best Disney vocal song EVER when it comes to romance(in my humble opinion).
If you have never seen this movie before, please do. You're really missing out.

Summary: Sounds like a winner!!
Review: Well, I first heard a mention of this new DVD on Entertainment Tonight. They mentioned that Clay Aiken was recording a song for the new DVD. On May 5, 2004 at 7:30 CT, this DVD was ranked at #1845. 5 hours later it is ranked #760. Many people will be waiting for this to come out. It sounds like it has lots of enhancments that will be enjoyable. I can't wait to get it. I know many fans of Clay Aiken will buy it if he records the long lost song from the vault-"Proud of Your Boy". I own many of the Disney animated classics (mostly on VHS) and would love to get them on DVD.

Summary: My favorite Disney movie!
Review: My wife and I were talking the other day while looking through our Disney DVD's for our 2 year old son. Both of us wondered why Aladdin wasn't part of the collection. Neither of us realized that it actually hadn't been released yet!! Whats THAT all about!? I saw this movie in the theater with 2 friends when it was first released. There were a number of people in the audience including a lot of young children. The vast majority of laughs came from the adults including the 3 of us. This is a GREAT movie. Robin Williams is perfect. Kids will enjoy this movie, but it will be the adults that will appreciate the humor and probably end up liking it more than the kids. I can't believe that over the last 14 years since its theatrical release it hasn't been released on DVD. It will be a long wait till October. I have this movie on VHS, Laserdisk and the CD soundtrack. My DVD collection is lonely without it. I can't wait till October!
