Watching now as I type, I saw Aladdin as a kid in the theater, and it has been one of my favorite Disney movies since. I can safely say, this new Blu-ray doesn't disappoint. Aladdin looks great in HD! The standard definition DVD looked good, but suffered from some noticeable compression artifacts when viewed on a 1080p TV, especially in the opening sequence. These issues are thankfully gone, allowing the colors to breathe with vibrancy and less of a "digital" appearance. Detail and sharpness are greatly improved; this is easily the best the film has ever looked. The audio has been upgraded to DTS-HD 7.1. Again, an improvement from the original 5.1 (even if purists may frown upon the fact that the original track is not included). The remix brings a very immersive, organic experience from things like crowd noise in the marketplace to the quiet moments when the music takes precedence. The biggest highlight of course is when the Genie debuts; his powers are a sonic hurricane. There's a reason this film was nominated for Best Sound and Sound Effects Editing at the '93 Academy Awards. Along with the "classic extras" ported over from the first DVD release, we get some welcome new additions that emphasize paying tribute to Robin Williams and the new Broadway musical: There's "Aladdin: Creating Broadway Magic"; an 18-minute featurette on the creation of the musical production. "Unboxing Aladdin" is an overview of some 'Easter eggs' included in the film, and "Genie 101" is an explanation of the pop-culture references. Both of these last two are targeted to appeal to children, but to be honest, I enjoyed them. I was born in the 80s, so the Ed Sullivan and Peter Lorre impersonations flew over my head back when the film came out. The big highlight of this Blu-ray are the "Genie Outtakes" - 9 more minutes of Robin Williams improvisations that are pretty funny; we get to see more character impersonations and gags accompanied by animated storyboards. I won't spoil it, but there's an alternate take of Genie after he rescues Aladdin, after he used his second wish that had me laughing hysterically! I presume it was dropped for not being very "G-rated." The results do not disappoint, and I think Disney both fulfilled and exceeded expectations with this highly-anticipated Blu-ray release!

I am not a big fan of double purchasing multiple re-dos of the same Disney film, but for Aladdin in the new and improved 4K UHD format, I made an exception (the other one being The Lion King).

So happy that Disney opened the Vault and let this movie out. My kid’s favorite movie as a little boy. Now am able to purchase it and give him nice memories of his childhood. Thanks Disney.

A true disney classic for the ages. Now available in 4k for a new generation. Also includes blu ray + digital copy to take with you on the road. Packaged is in a collectible steelbook

After seeing this movie today in 2019 as opposed to back in the VHS era - the difference is BERY noticeable. Definitely recommend it to add to a digital media collection for any Disney fan!

If you are reading this review... I have not much to say it is a classic. Any thing less than 5 stars would be an insult to the legendary robin Williams. My wife also made me buy this.

I think this is the last if the Disney animated films that I really enjoyed. Robin Williams seems to be having the time of his life. Kids will enjoy the film and it’s frenetic pace.

i wasnt able to catch aladdin in theaters so this is the first ive seen it in its original 1.66:1 ratio which kind of makes the experience new for me. a worthy buy for longtime fans.

I love this movie and its make happy when I see a good story that touches my heart. I recommend this movie to anyone that want to get started in the awesome Disney Cinema Universe.

Finally a collector’s edition of Aladdin, one of my childhood favorites as a kid from the ‘90s. I was waiting eagerly for this to release in 4K and the steelbook case is nostalgic.

Both myself and my 22-year-old son love this movie One of the best of Robin Williams performances So many quotable lines! Worth purchasing as you get the DVD and digital code

Nostagia at its best. Still one of the best animated movies in my opinion. Robin Williams as the genie can never be forgotten. The live action cannot compare to the original

i felt like a kid in a candy store picking out so many movies

Classic movie grew up watching it had to buy it for my kids to enjoy

this movie is one for the making! my childhood movie. this is a great film for the kiddos and for those who grew up with this movie, its great to get back to it at any time

My family and I love this movie, the characters are so much fun and the music and songs are very catchy, the late Robin Williams does a great job as the voice of the Genie.

From beginning to end, Aladdin is one of Disney's best and most enjoyable films that succeeds thanks to it's fabulous cast, breathtaking animation and show stopping music.

Don't fall for the live-action garbage Disney is producing. Stick to the originals and you won't regret the decision. No one will ever replace Robin Williams as Genie.

You can never go wrong with a Disney movie for the family. Especially when Robin Williams is dominating the film, you know it’s going to be great! Fun and laughs for all.

Replacing old vhs, really enjoyed this video and waiting own a copy
