Reseñas (11)
I haven't seen the original Aladdin yet (shame one me, I know), but after watching the live-action (but still largely animated) remake, I need to make time for it soon. The beginning of the film felt a bit dry and rushed, but eventually it all kicked into high gear and only stopped during the closing credits. The film abounds with an incredible amount of colours that make your eyes cross, it offers plenty of action scenes and there are romantic and funny moments as well. The blue of the genie may have looked a bit weird in places, but in the end it didn't distract me that much. The plot flowed nicely and one did not get bored at all, which is the main thing. Among the best scenes are the first meeting of Aladdin and the Genie and then the arrival of Prince Ali in the city.

Aladino, interpretado en su obra maestra animada, pierde de muchas maneras, pero aun así, verla es en general una experiencia agradable, especialmente gracias a las magníficas imágenes llenas de color y costosas con un concepto ligeramente inconsistente, influenciado por todo. Los elementos árabes se combinan con las influencias del Bollywood de la India (incluido el número de baile al final) o con la estética de los carnavales brasileños y, lamentablemente, también hay breakdance y beatboxing. Desde el punto de vista de la trama, no es una copia, porque se han agregado varios pasajes y dos canciones nuevas y en algunas escenas se ha invertido su orden y se ha cambiado su contenido (a veces para mejorar, a veces para empeorar). Will Smith se las arregla para ser juguetón, divertido y conmovedor en el papel del Genio. Por el contrario, Mena Massoud y Naomi Scott en los roles de Aladdín y la Princesa Jasmín son más difíciles de ganar la simpatía del público y Marwan Kenzari es francamente trágico en el papel negativo del consejero del sultán, Jafar, con su expresión acartonada y falta de carisma.

Disney put it together like Bata's trainers, but it has nothing to do with full-blooded movies, the kind that appeal to me. This is nothing but CGI cartoon, tiresome, stupid, standing in a shop window next to a McDonald's burger and chicken strips from KFC. A factory product on demand that is far from proper craftsmanship. Its success is certainly a signal that Mickey will continue to delight us with this kind of digital mess, but I won't be there anymore. Artistic statements as well as mid-budget auteur ambitious films go to shit, they don't pay in theaters, Disney will buy us all. Honour the rare exceptions that make big money without having to compromise on their auteur vision (Villeneuve, Nolan, Fincher and others).

The thief Aladdin would like to seduce the princess, but ends up in the hands of the villain Jafar, who wants to use him to bring him a magic lamp. But Aladdin discovers a Genie living in the lamp who grants him three wishes, and he decides to pursue the princess with his help. But Jafar doesn't give up... Guy Ritchie directs a brisk and visually arresting family fairy tale that brilliantly combines humour, suspense and romance and features a very likeable cast. The problem is that it's too similar to the animated original and doesn't bring much new to the story. How much of a problem that is is for everyone to figure out. But the craftsmanship is more than good.

Who had the terrifying idea to turn Aladdin into a musical? It’s like watching a three-hour long Bollywood opus and enjoying how everyone is dancing and everything around is incredibly colorful. The only good thing about the movie is Will Smith, even though some people might protest that a genie shouldn’t be black. However, Will Smith is the only reason for which this film is even worth watching. All the rest (apart from the opening show jumping scene) is too horrible for words.

The anticipated failure turned out to be a commercial hit, praised by audiences and critics alike, and apparently no one expected that. Guy Ritchie has the direction firmly in hand and serves up the fairy tale of my childhood with an excellent Will Smith as the Genie (quite possibly the best performance of his career), a beautiful Princess Jasmine with a voice like Adele, and a very likeable Aladdin. It's beautifully colourful, suspenseful, fun and most importantly for the whole family. The dance numbers and songs are reminiscent of the best of Bollywood. Disney is making me happy this year. 80%!

I was the one who objected the most loudly that Aladdin didn't need a live-action adaptation because it could already suffice as the epitome of the adventure genre in the animated version. And yet Guy Ritchie's direction turns the chase scenes in the marketplace or on the carpet into an impressively exciting spectacle, the bond between the main protagonist and the perfect Jasmine (Naomi Scott is the most amazing princess, and I want to see her everywhere now, thank you very much) is perfectly believable by fairytale standards, and the added subplots with Jafar's motivations or the breathtaking song "Speechless" make Prince Ali not only a great summer blockbuster but also the best live-action Disney movie, for me surpassing even the unmatchable Beauty and the Beast.

Those modern western values involving strong women are quite weird in an Arabian fairy-tale, but here we are. Ritchie’s visually captivating version of the classic Disney movie moves along nicely, and the only weak point is the songs, which are more numerous than even in the animated original. Smith is great, Aladdin is quite a nice guy and Jasmine is a fox. P.S. Was the controversy because Will played the slave or or because the slave was blue?

The mere mention of a live-action version of Aladdin has long terrified me. It is not an inspired story, but a retelling of the classic Disney story, which is a completely useless endeavor. And yet all it needed was a little more and we would have gotten an equally interesting new fairy tale adventure, like in Alice or Maleficent. But wouldn’t you know it, even with such poor prospects, Guy Ritchie managed to make a crazy colorful film that rushes by very quickly and almost amusingly toward its prescribed happy ending. It is not something I would recommend to anyone, but it’s also not the expected disaster.

If the main character and the main villain weren't such bland and uninteresting misfits, this could have been a reasonably enjoyable musical, because unlike Tim Burton's Dumbo, which I turned off after fifteen minutes, I didn't have such a problem with Aladdin. It's good to see that everything about the cast isn't digital, but that the filmmakers went to some trouble with sets and set design in general; Will Smith is very good as the genie (even in his much-criticized blue form), and the story was quite interestingly developed. And a great job by Alan Menken, who made his own excellent music for the animated Aladdin even better. However, if it weren't for the credits, I wouldn't have thought for a second that Guy Ritchie directed this.

A well-deserved modern take on one of the most iconic adventure stories. Quality direction and relatively decent blockbuster visuals. But it lacked a certain amount of originality, and the film easily gets lost in the pile of other, similarly directed film adaptations.
