Disney Aladdin Live Action and Remastered Animated Film Now Available on DVD Blu Ray

September 9, 2019 By Candy

I think Disney has changed my mind. The animated film from 1992 Aladdin has always been a favorite of mine. I might have to remove it from my list and add Disney Aladdin live-action film to it now. I cannot say enough about the newly released film and cannot wait for you to experience it as well because guess what?! Disney Aladdin live-action and remastered animated film are now available on DVD Blu Ray.

Mena Massoud is Aladdin and Naomi Scott is Jasmine in Disney’s live-action ALADDIN, directed by Guy Ritchie.

THE MAKING OF DISNEY ALADDIN

When going from animated to live-action the stakes are already high enough. Director Guy Ritchie did an amazing job with the live-action film. Here’s some interesting trivia about the filming of Aladdin. It was filmed in the Kingdom of Jordan and in England. You can see some fantastic bloopers and background information on the making of Aladdin in the Blu-Ray now available. Make sure to pick it up! 

WHAT I LIKED

The music was a big hit for myself and still is with Ezra. He loves singing and I can hear him singing along with the film when he watches it. So very cute! Original songs by Howard Ashman, Tim Rice and Alan Menken, plus some updates of new lyrics for A Whole New World by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul were brilliant for the film. 

Aladdin (Mena Massoud) and Jasmine (Naomi Scott) flee from palace guards on the streets of Agrabah in ALADDIN, a live-action adaptation of Disney’s animated classic.

Mena and Naomi had excellent on-screen chemistry. I think they did an amazing job with casting. How can I not mention Will Smith as genie. When trailers and teasers were being shown, there was a lot of hard feelings towards seeing Smith in the role once played by the late Robin Williams. “No one can do genie-like Robin Williams” you’d hear people say. No one can replace the voice of the animated genie, but Smith made the character his own in the live-action film. I’ll fight you on this too. Will was an excellent genie. 

MY ISSUES

The only issue I would say if- I had to have any issues with the film was Jafar. Played by Marwin Kenzari, one could say he was too young and too handsome. If we consider that he’d marry Princess Jasmine, then you’d be ok with a young and hot Jafar. No one said the live-action film needed to follow the animated film to a tee right? So he didn’t have to be an old Grand Vizer. 

OKAY FOR KIDS?

Remember the dark magic that Jafar works to make things go his way? Well, you can expect it in the live-action film as well. If your children are afraid of dark scenes with magic, then I would wait until the children are at least 7. Ezra really enjoyed the film. I will say this, the colors and music really make it eye-catching and keep your attention. 

FINAL THOUGHTS

Aladdin is a beautiful film. If you missed the animated film, grab it and the newly released live-action film as well. You will fall in love with the music, the characters, and the visuals. 

Craft Time:

Shining Shimmering Bookmark 

Lately, I have had the urge to bedazzle something. After watching Aladdin I knew fun and easy crafty would be making a bookmark. Who says bookmarks are only for kids? This one also has a written reminder perfect for adults. 

Here’s what you need:

  • Large Popsicle Stick
  • Sequins and Stones
  • Modpodge
  • Paintbrush
  • Pen or marker to add your words of encouragement

I placed on one side of the stick to make my own design. Sometimes you just have to let your creativity guide you. 

If you make your own bookmark, please share it on social and make sure to tag me! 

Cheers,

Candy
