| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Aladdin |
|---|
Aladdin is a street rat who has to keep stealing bread to live. He has always wanted a live in the Sultan's palace. Meanwhile, the sultan's daughter, Jasmine longs for a life on the outside. She leaves, and meets Aladdin who quickly falls in love with her. She is then found, and Aladdin is captured. He is then freed, and finds a lamp, and out comes a genie who turns him into a prince. This is a brilliant animated musical with Robin Williams stealing the show, and the music is wonderful, and imaginative.
