Aladdin

Aladdin

Magical Disney film set in India. 1992. Directors: Juhn Musker, Ron Clements.

The evil Jafar tries to enter the Cave of Wonders to get an oil lamp containing a genie that can make him very powerful. But he and his egoistic parrot Iago learns that only one person can enter the cave.

In Agrabah, the bored princess Jasmine wants to escape her boring life in the palace. She wants to enter the streets of the city, outside the gigantic walls that surround her and the others in the palace.

Disgusised, she climbs over the walls and walks to the marketplace. Not realizing that you have to pay for things, she gives a poor boy an apple. She would have lost her hand if not the urchin Aladdin and his monkey Abu comes and rescues her.

Jafar then sees that Aladdin is the person who can enter the Cave of Wonders, and takes him there. Aladdin gets the lamp, but Jafar then betrays Aladdin and he's then trapped in the cave.

With the help of the funny genie, Aladdin gets out of there. He wants to marry Jasmine, thinking that she'll like him even more if he's a prince. But Jafar is still looking for the lamp, and what'll happen when he realizes that Aladdin has it?

A good Disney film. One of the best, but still not as good as "Beauty and the Beast" and "Pocahontas". The location is exotic and the film if very magical. A good movie.
