5 out of 5 stars Great Film   April 4, 2008
  0 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is a fantastic sequel to first film, although of course you can't really copmare this to the legendary first. br /br /The film begins with the thief Abis Mal and his henchmen trying to steal some treasures, but Aladdin, Abu and Carpet prevent them from doing so. We then see Iago escaping from the lamp, and refusing to release Jafar, and drops him down a well. Abis Mal discovers the lamp and agrees to help Jafar in finding Aladdin, if he grants him three wishes. Eventually Jafar is defeated once and for all and of course Genie is back in this show stopping film. There are some great musical numbers, 'I Can't Forget About Love' sung by Jasmine, 'Second Best' sung by Jafar, and 'Now I'm Home', sung by Genie. br /All in all a brilliant film, I would strongly recommend, perhaps not suitable for 6 years or younger as it is a lot scarier than the first film. But worth a watch!


3 out of 5 stars "You'd Be Surprised What You Can Live Through"   November 7, 2007
Aladdin's (Scott Weinger) life is going well. Living in the palace suits him, and he has turned his skills as a thief into a Robin Hood act.br /br /Unfortunately, things are about to get messy. Jafar (Jonathan Freeman) and Iago (Gilbert Gottfried) have managed to get out of the Cave of Wonders. Jafar has one thing on his mind, revenge, and he wants to get back to Agrabah as quickly as possible. His luck improves when his lamp falls into the hands of Abis Mal, the thief (Jason Alexander).br /br /Iago wants to get back into the palace himself. When he accidentally gets on Aladdin's good side, things seem to be going well. But then Jafar shows up. Whose side is Iago really on? And is there a way to fight an all powerful genie?br /br /This was the beginning of Disney's direct to video sequels. I must admit, I enjoyed it the first few times I saw it, but it doesn't hold up. The animation is far inferior to the original. A couple of the songs are catchy, but they aren't in the same league as the songs from the original at all. The story is decent, although I hate what it did to the ending of the original. That ending was just perfect, so bring Jafar back so easily didn't make me happy. I'm also not a fan of Aladdin lying again so easily. Dan Castellaneta steps into the role of the Blue Genie, and he does a good job in Robin Williams' absence. The story is decent, but it is darker and potentially scarier to young kids.br /br /This isn't a bad film, but it pales in comparison to the original.


3 out of 5 stars A PASSABLE SEQUEL   October 18, 2007
Our story opens with Aladdin stopping a group of thieves lead by Abis Mal as they made to their hideout with their newly stolen loot. Aladdin and Abu return it to the people of Agrabah but Aladdin keeps a crystal rose for Jasmine. Yes, big things were in store for Aladdin with his new palace life. He and Jasmine weren't married yet, but they should be soon.br /br /What nobody expected was right at that moment in the desert, Iago the parrot was digging himself and Jafar the genie up from the sand. Iago decided to ditch Jafar and go off on his own. Be his own man. He get's caught by Aladdin, but he soon feels for him when Iago explains his predicament. Aladdin also keeps Iago hidden from Jasmine and Sultan. Right at that moment, another old friend pops in: Genie! He's back from his trip around the world. He sings about it and shows Aladdin and Jasmine the places he went to. Iago doesn't stay secret for long and Jasmine is quite angry at Aladdin, but Iago straightened it all out and they liked him. Unfortunately that night, Abis Mal found Jafar's lamp and released him. Jafar desparately wanted revenge on Aladdin so he captured Genie, Abu, Sultan and Jasmine and framed Aladdin for the murder of the Sultan. He was about to be beheaded when Iago freed Genie who freed Aladdin. All Abis Mal had to do was wish Jafar free then everybody would be in big trouble! Of course, Abis Mal had wishes of $$$ first. Genie said the only way to stop Jafar would be to destroy his lamp. Being a genie, Jafar couldn't kill anybody but you'd be surprised what you can live through! Iago acted bravely, the lamp was destroyed and so was Jafar! He exploded in a cloud of smoke and was gone forever.br /br /The Sultan told Aladdin he would one day be Sultan, but Aladdin turned him down because he didn't want a life of just sitting around in a palace when there was so much to do out in the world. Iago tried to talk him out of it but Aladdin was serious. Well, our story has a happy ending, leaving Abis Mal hanging in a tree without his third wish.br /br /A worthy sequel to Aladdin. Sadly, Robin Williams does not return to do Genie. I'm sure he had his reasons, though. Instead they got Dan "Homer Simpson" Castellaneta to do Genie. Gilbert Gottfried returns as Iago. This movie spawned the TV series. There was a third Aladdin released two years later where Robin Williams returned as the Genie! Anyway, I recommend The Return of Jafar! I'm sure you'll like it.
