Critics Consensus

A highly entertaining entry in Disney's renaissance era," Aladdin is beautifully drawn, with near-classic songs and a cast of scene-stealing characters.

Despite all of Aladdin’s other achievements, it may be most significant for providing Williams what he has until now been deprived: the perfect film role, one that can accommodate his machine-gun delivery.

Rated: 3.5/4

L.A. Weekly

Though at times his endless gabbing makes you want to stuff him back into the lamp, Williams is perfectly cast here.

As if they had their own magic lamp and resident Genie, but with limitless wishes, the folks from Disney seem to never run out of miracles.

Montreal Gazette

Aladdin has all the elements: action, intrigue, romance, music and comedy. Not just light, cute, well-mannered comedy, either. We're talking side-splitting, roll-in-the-aisles, spit-up-your-popcorn comedy.

Rated: 4/5

Scott Rosenberg

San Francisco Examiner

Williams has loaned his voice to the Genie in the ancient tale. But even more distinctively, he has loaned his quicksilver spirit to the character -- and it in turn gives everything else in the film a giddy lift.

Rated: 3/4

Aladdin is a family film in the best sense -- art for the eyes and ears with appeal for the widest of audiences.

**Aladdin – 4 Stars** Man, *Aladdin* still hits like magic. This voice cast? *Chef’s kiss.* Robin Williams as the Genie is a full-blown, fireworks-in-the-sky performance—unmatched energy, warmth, and heart. I couldn’t stop thinking how much I miss him in media; he *was* the magic. Gilbert Gottfried nails the chaotic sidekick energy as Iago, and Frank Welker doing Abu and the Cave of Wonders? Legendary vocal work. Jafar? What a slimeball—and I say that with respect. He’s one of those villains you *love* to hate, oozing menace with every line. The animation? Still jaw-dropping. The colors, the movement, the sweeping shots of Agrabah—it’s all cinematic gold. Jasmine isn’t just a princess; she’s a powerhouse. Aladdin and Jasmine’s chemistry sizzles with charm, and the bond between Genie and Aladdin is the kind of friendship that tugs the heart. And oh, the *songs*! Alan Menken delivered earworms that perfectly fit the story and setting. “Friend Like Me,” “Prince Ali,” “A Whole New World”... just pure musical joy. Drama, laughs, romance, adventure—it’s the full package. This isn’t just nostalgia—it’s a classic that still dazzles. I’m all in for the sequel. Let’s see where the magic carpet flies next.

A decent adaptation of the Thief of Baghdad. Great songs throughout with hand-drawn animation that was the top of it's time.
