The results are fun and fast moving, but far from sublime.

It juggles a '90s impudence with the old Disney swank and heart.

Floridly beautiful, shamelessly derivative and infused with an irreverent, sophisticated comic flair thanks to Robin Williams' vocal calisthenics...

The fundamentals here go beyond first-rate: animation both gorgeous and thoughtful, several wonderful songs and a wealth of funny minor figures on the sidelines, practicing foolproof Disney tricks.

So funny and scrappy you don't need to drag a kid along.

A magic carpet ride, a flight aboard a supersonic little Persian steered by all the wishes that ever were.

It's awfully close to being a great story, but it keeps having to settle for pretty darn good.

Grants all three wishes and some more besides with a brilliant turn from Williams' genie and some beautiful animation.

Visually, it's a treat, a perfect marriage of hi-tech graphics and the traditional Disney virtue of strong characterisation and colour.

Filme irreverente e com bons trabalhos vocais de Williams e Gottfried, embora pouco ambicioso dos pontos de vista narrativo e t�cnico.

Evoking wonder and magic, Disney's animated version of the famous fable benefits from the melodic score, Robin Williams' voice as Genie, and a colorful gallery of supporting characters.

Aladdin is a good animated film that will please anyone of all ages. This is a fun, comedy filled adventure that will appeal to kids as much as adults. The voice talents are great here, but Robin Williams as the Genie steals the show. He made the film much better than it is, and his performance alone made this film
