Aladdin the movie 1992 review

Aladdin the movie 1992 is raw intense energy from start to finish! It was memorable for its character struggles! In this review, I'll include some spoilers.   

Cinematography: 

I loved the many different camera angles in various scenes. I loved how the camera focused on showing the vast landscapes of Aladdin the movie 1992.  

Animation: 

I loved the breathtaking animation in the movie, especially during scenes showing the cave of wonders!  

Dialogue: 

The dialogue in Aladdin the movie 1992 feels natural especially when it builds tension.  

Characters: 

I loved how each of the characters complemented each other. When one character couldn't accomplish a certain task due to his/her flaws, another character helped with his/her strengths. None of them felt overpowered. They were three-dimensional and relatable. I loved how the characters communicated their feelings through body language. Even characters with non-speaking roles were memorable through body language!        

Aladdin - I loved Aladdin for being a noble thief. He was a complex character. He often stole because it's all he knows how to do. Metaphorically, he tried to steal Jasmine through deception.   

Jasmine - I loved how Jasmine showed her strength even if she was mostly quiet. I loved how Jasmine rebelled against the social structure she lived under. She did what needed to be done even if she wasn't always aggressive and violent.       

Jafar - Jafar is a disturbing villain because of his demeanor and mystique. We don't know much about his backstory. He wasn't as loud as other villains. I was scared of his depiction in the last scene. 

Genie - I loved how the Genie was unpredictable. He shapeshifted in different forms you didn't expect. He was different from typical genies because of his desires.  

Soundtrack: 

All of the songs made a huge impact on the story. The opening song did a great job of setting the mood, time, and place of the story. I loved how the songs portrayed the characters very well. Some songs had beautiful melodies but others such as "friend like me" were catchy. The melody and tone of voice were chaotic as it was changing at odd moments. This expressed the Genie's chaotic personality.       

Theme: 

The Aladdin animated movie 1992 touched on some very deep and emotional subjects such as forced marriages! Unfortunately, forced marriages are a part of some middle eastern cultures. The movie does a great job of exploring this issue not just from the woman's point of view but also from the parent's. Some parents want what's best for their children. I loved the message of being able to choose who you want to marry. Marriage should not be done out of obligation or survival. 

I also love the importance of being yourself rather than focusing on social status.   

Story: 

Each scene in the Aladdin animated movie 1992 had you on the edge of your seat! I was surprised at how subtly violent Aladdin the movie 1992 was for a children's movie. There were some deeply emotional moments like when Aladdin sees starving children looking for food.

While it seems as if Aladdin the movie 1992 is a stereotypical love story, it's far from it. It's somewhat complex. Jafar intends to steal jewelry from the cave of wonders and overthrow the sultan for power. Aladdin also seeks power but for the purpose of winning Jasmine's hand in marriage. Aladdin's other goal is to survive. I love how Aladdin makes the characters' end goals ambiguous even if it's not apparent on the surface. Did Aladdin really love Jasmine or was he just using her to escape poverty? If he lied before, why wouldn't he lie again? 

I loved how Aladdin outsmarted Jafar at the end of the movie. He used Jafar's own ego against him. I feel there's too much emphasis on physically empowering villains to gain victories in cinema and not enough on outsmarting them. 

The Aladdin animated movie 1992 had clever humor. I laughed at several points of the film.     

In summary, Aladdin the movie 1992 is a must-watch film. I felt highly recommend buying Aladdin the movie 1992 on DVD!
