Description: Soar away on a magic carpet ride of nonstop thrills and fun in the most spectacular adventure of all time! Now meticulously restored and enhanced -- experience the wonders of ALADDIN like never before, from the Academy Award(R)-winning music (Best Original Song, Best Original Score, 1992) to the unforgettable moments of sidesplitting comedy and soaring adventure. In the heart of an enchanted city, a commoner named Aladdin and his mischievous monkey, Abu, battle to save the free-spirited Princess Jasmine. Aladdin's whole life changes with one rub of a magic lamp as a fun-loving, shape-shifting Genie appears and grants him three wishes, setting him on an incredible journey of discovery. Through his adventures, Aladdin proves that he is a prince where it truly matters most -- on the inside!
Amazon.com essential video: Disney's 1992 animated feature is a triumph of wit and skill. The high-tech artwork and graphics look great, the characters are strong, the familiar story is nicely augmented with an interesting villain (Jafar, voiced by Jonathan Freeman), and there's an incredible hook atop the whole thing: Robin Williams's frantically hilarious vocal performance as Aladdin's genie. Even if one isn't particularly moved by the love story between the title character (Scott Weinger) and his girlfriend Jasmine (Linda Larkin), you can easily get lost in Williams's improvisational energy and the equally entertaining performances of Freeman and Gilbert Gottfried (as Jafar's parrot). --Tom Keogh
The usual disney fare Aladdin is the usual Disney fare. Not a bad movie for sure, but not one I could watch over and over again.
Rewatching a Classic I had forgotten how nice it was to watch a movie with a youngster. In watching this DVD over the week-end with my grandson and watching his pleasure I remembered watching the VHS Tape with his mother years ago. Movies like this will never go out of style.
New Classic Disney Era The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Lion King, and Beauty and the Beast were all part of the Disney revival. Right before Pixar and the huge advances in computer animation these Disney movies have a look, character, and beauty that is hard to beat.
Aladdin follows the classic fairy tale for the most part and like the other 3 movies mentioned above the music and score are also incredible. Voice talent was well matched and the humor from Robin Williams and Gilbery Gottfried gave a spark to the movie.
LOVED IT!!! Love it. It was just the thing to make me feel like a kid again and my sisters love it. It was in perfect condition. Thank you.
Great Well priced, arrived very quickly, works fine. Although it's a used copy the condition is superb. Highly recommended.
