Aladdin Movie Review | Safe for Kids? #Aladdin

Ruining a classic or upping the nostalgia? It’s yet another live action remake of a classic Disney movie. I have to admit that I went into Disney’s Aladdin feeling hurt.

In this Aladdin Movie Review | Safe for Kids?, I’m talking visuals, the story, a full PG rating breakdown, and sharing whether my kids will be seeing a whole new world or just another “meh” movie.

Whatever it takes.

21 movies. Over 30 super heroes. 1 Thanos. Over 10 years of Marvel super hero movies all culminates to THIS moment. And to be honest I wasn’t fully prepared to see Avengers: Endgame.

But is the end worth waiting for?
