Jasmins bezaubernde Geschichten - Träume werden Wirklichkeit

First off, the music in this movie is fantastic. Truly up to the highest standard of sound. If you have a big stereo to play this through the first time then by all means it makes the movie 100 times better.

OK past that we have 2 stories both based around the theme of perseverance. Covering the princesses Aurora (sleeping beauty) and Jasmine (aladdin) Where both the princess learn a lesson about not quitting although they both seem to already know that. Still its all details. Its a great little girls movie with flowers and animals and princess singing songs. With the odd joke here and there for the adults.

The real question is. Is it tolerable to mums and dads to sit through 50 times? Well in my opinion think there are far worse movies about. It's no Wall-E or Nemo. Or even Aladdin or Sleeping beauty. But its a perfectly tolerable film for adults and a real winner for little girls. (According to my daughter)

A crossover between Jasmine (Aladdin) and Aurora ( Sleeping Beauty) the worst movie ever from 2007 i would prefer to watch Ratatouille and Meet The Robinsons better than this unnecesary crossover between a movie from 1992 and a movie from 1959.

This video is a compilation of Aladdin's cartoons, all from Season One: #4: Do the right thing; #8: Garden of evil; #30: Elemental, my dear.

If I hadn't been friend with Arabic friends, I would never take a look at those cartoons. It would have been a pity because Aladdin's world is an exotic universe, far away from western cultures but sharing the same spiritual roots.

With this franchise, Disney got a precious jewel: As I have written in my reviews of this collection (see "Disney Princess Stories Volume Three: Beauty Shines from Within"), this is an unique gateway to get into the Arabic culture and the effort of philosophy is sincere: Kids are addressed with romance, truth, human condition and nature preservation.

But, the parrot Iago and the Genie are pretty dumb and irritating, which ruins everything!
