Great movie


While scrolling on the youtubes I found this. I remember it airing on TV in the early 2000s and didn't appreciate it then. They were trying to cater to the Disney Aladdin popularity and I didn't care for the changes (IE Sherazade instead of Jasmine....Jasmine being a different character, Jafar being a prince (a hot prince but still....). It was ok. Getting to watch it now, I have a major appreciation for it. Aladdin is crazy sexy and Sherazade is probably one of the best written 'strong female' characters in movie history.

I'm not a huge fan of the separate plotlines each character takes but when the two are together, there's a really good connection and fun moments. I keep watching the last half hour or 45 minutes of the movie myself. From the time Sherezan meets Aladdin's family to the end. It's just so epic.

My only complaint is it kind of has 2 endings or reuniting between the two and the first one is better so the 2nd just seems monotonous even if it IS the framing and conclusion of the movie. But either way; it's beautifully well done. great music, costumes, plot points and actors.
