Aladdin (1992)
10/10
One of the best movies ever made

I love it. Everything's just perfect - not in terms of that synthetic, overworked, exhausting techno-perfection, but the way a genuine, slightly flawed but totally well-intended, sincere work of art should be.

This was made shortly before computers took over the final outcomes of animation cinema, so it has the delicacy of "hand made" artifacts, which makes it even more precious.

I have no idea why Disney+ is showing this with a disclaimer put before, talking about stereotypes whatnot. I see nothing problematic here. Maybe the abundance of Indian fakirs was somewhat distracting or misleading for a story set in Arabia but who cares.

This movie is about pure love. The kind of love you can find only once in a lifetime. As the couple sings "A Whole New World", you get to experience how that feeling or romance breaks down all your past boundaries and opens you up to a whole new, inner world.

I salute every single person who has worked on this. It's just marvelous. A fairy tale, a story too good to be true, top class entertainment with noble things to say.
