Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Ahmed-ASG yeeeaaap , just another disastrous sequel , seems it's not just a Hollywood thing after all.don't get me wrong, the movie by itself is very entertaining, Disney's magic definitely shows in this movie no doubt, but ,,, and it's a big but (no pun intended) it's not the animation quality you expect from Disney, it didn't take long to see that, it actually happens in the first seconds of the movie.Finally, I would love to say those "Arabs" does not look like any Arab I met in my life and I'm Arabian, sooooo,,, where did you get that from Disney?

Finfrosk86 Aladdin is my favorite Disney-movie. It took a whole lot of years from the first time I watched that one and till now, when I watched the sequel. And I'm kinda glad. Had I seen this when I was little, I might have been disappointed. Why? Well, let me tell ya!The Return of Jafar is not even comparable to Aladdin. Aladdin (1992) is one of Disneys greatest movies. The Return of Jafar is a cheap looking typical made-for-TV animation feature. The animation is cheap. I mean, it doesn't even seem to follow Disneys own 12 principles of animation. It's shoddy, jittery and sloppy. A lot of the time the drawings are down right bad. It's very clear that the budget for this was just a fraction of the budget for Aladdin (1992).Genies voice has been replaced with Home.. uhm, Dan Castellaneta. He did a good job, though. Besides, I actually prefer the Norwegian dub, for Aladdin, so I'm not very familiar with Williams Genie anyway.The movie is not all bad, though. It's short, which is good. It's nice to see these characters again, cheap as they may look. The story is, well, there hardly is a story at all, really. It even has some plot holes. (not that I care) But the movie is, you know, made for kids, and gets the job done I guess. It's just very generic, and nothing like the excellent quality that is Aladdin (1992).Just have to add: I feel so mean when I slam the animation so hard, because someone still spent hour upon hour drawing this stuff. Animation is beyond time consuming. I know, because I've done it myself. OK. Anyway, you'll find plenty other, better animations feature films than this. That's my last word!

Rachel Chin When I first saw the sequel, I really noticed a lot of changes. I watched the original again then the sequel so I could connect and remember the way the characters were. First, I really thought that Jasmine would interrogate more about where Aladdin got that flower jewel thingy since Aladdin said that he stole it. If you were the princess who didn't know where he stole it from or where he gave the rest of the treasures, you sure would ask him about it. Also, I was surprised to see that they became a bit or more (actually) romantic. Like in the first movie, Jasmine was a bit of a hard- to-get princess and in this sequel, she became like.. too romantic? Also, they became less serious. There really are a lot of changes in the characters. Also, the parrot was very loyal to Jafar in the first movie and I couldn't believe that he just turned away like that to Jafar. Also, I was confused about the Genie thing. Haha because Aladdin's Genie or Robin Williams or in here, Dan Castellanetta was very kind and he never hurt Aladdin when he was his master. Can a genie hurt their master? I mean, when they are currently their master? Because Jafar tried to hit that man. Also, I was confused why Genie still has that thing on his wrist. In the original movie, it was broken or destroyed during the last part, right?Anyways, Dan Castellanetta did a good job with being the voice of Genie here. At first, I really thought it was Robin Williams. The voice was kinda similar to his that I didn't know about it until I read the names of the casts haha Same with Liz Callaway (singing voice of Jasmine). I didn't notice it at first too but I already knew that it was not Lea who was going to be the singing voice. I like Liz but I like Lea more. However, Liz still did a good job here and so with Brad Kane and the other voice actors. The thing I miss the most about the original are the songs, which aren't really much in this sequel. I just love "A Whole New World" and "Friend Like Me" that at first, I couldn't accept the new songs haha I really miss the original one and I was expecting for a good sequel with not much changes and with a more reasonable and great plot. Well, as the saying goes, "Nothing beats the original." We really can't expect that the sequel would be as good as its predecessor. WAAAHHH I JUST MISS THE SONGS THE SONG THE SOOONGGGGGSS OK, overall, the movie is still good and the story is good. I like how the voice actors and singers who were changed made it look like there were not much changes.

Gavin Cresswell (gavin-thelordofthefu-48-460297) Having grown up with the original film, I heard that Disney decided to make two DTV sequels including this and the King of Thieves. Well, at first, when I watched it a few times, I seemed to have been disappointed in the first few minutes, but I don't think it's a terrible movie. The reason why is because some of the characters weren't as likable as they were in original despite the Genie being the best character throughout the movie. The animation has some nice backgrounds, but the character animation kind of bothered me and the dialog is absolutely horrendous.The songs are a mixed bag. "There's Nothing In A World Quite Like A World" has a decent melody and "You're Only Second Rate" was OK, but Iago's singing irritated me to death (not to mention the character itself was so annoying to being with) and the beginning songs were forgettable. The only good things that saved the movie for me was it's decent voice work especially Jonathan Freeman and the climax which is one of the best I've seen in a Disney DTV so far.Overall, Return of Jafar may have missed the heart & charm of the original film, but for me, I don't think it was that bad. Kids may like it, but for others, stick to the original classic.
