Soar away on a magic carpet ride of nonstop enchantment in the most spectacular animated adventure of all time! Embraced by critics and audiences of all ages, Disney's ALADDIN became the #1 film of the year, winning 2 Academy Awards® for Best Song, "A Whole New World" (Alan Menken, Tim Rice) and Best Score (Alan Menken).

Set in the mythical city of Agrabah, the story follows a street-smart peasant, Aladdin, and his mischievous pet monkey, Abu. Aladdin falls in love with the free-spirited Princess Jasmine -- despite a law that says she can only wed a royal suitor! His luck changes with one rub of the lamp, releasing the shape-shifting, fun-loving, wish-giving Genie -- who turns him into a Prince! But the evil sorcerer, Jafar, and his wisecracking parrot, Iago, also crave the lamp's power. If Aladdin is to defeat them and win Jasmine's heart, he must learn to be himself -- and that's one wish the Genie can't grant! With a magical mix of delightful Disney characters, breathtaking Disney artistry, and playful humor, "You couldn't wish for a more wonderful film!" (Joel Siegel, ABC-TV) Now enjoy all the phenomenal fun of Aladdin ... anytime you wish!
 


Editor's Note

Disney brings a whole new world vividly to life once again in this musical story from the Arabian Nights. Aladdin, an eager genie (with the voice of Robin Williams) and a sultan's daughter take a magic carpet ride through a fireworks display of incredible animation. Direct-to-video sequel: "The Return of Jafar." Academy Award Nominations: 5, including Best Song ("Friend Like Me"). Academy Awards: Best Original Score, Best Song ("Whole New World").


Plot Summary

This funny, romantic tale about a spunky orphan and a smart princess won the hearts of children and adults alike.| Poor Aladdin looks longingly at the Sultan's luxurious castle, and dreams of living inside, but Princess Jasmine wants only to escape that pampered life. Finally, she does run away, only to discover how hard life on the streets can be -- especially when a vendor accuses you of thievery. Aladdin comes to her rescue, and soon the two have fallen in love. But how can a beggar marry the sultan's daughter? His only hope lies in a magic lamp from the Cave of Wonders and a wisecracking genie who can grant wishes. But Jafar, the Sultan's evil advisor, desires that lamp himself, so he can rule the kingdom and possess Jasmine. Soon the handsome young boy and the cruel Jafar are locked in a battle of wits -- and unleashing magic the likes of which no one has seen before.

New York Times
"...The fundamentals here go beyond first-rate....What will come through clearly to audiences of any age is the breathless euphoria of [Williams's] free associations..." 11/11/1992 p.C15
