Aladdin is surprising everyone with how well it's doing.
People were really hating on it before it even dropped, but it seems like people are eating their words now!

Be wary travelers!
There is actually a very important spoiler ahead for the new Aladdin!
The movie is a fan favorite.
Between the awesome songs and the wonderful magic, why wouldn't it be?
This is a plot hole that has haunted not just Aladdin but any movie that tends to involve a disguise.
Genie fulfills his wish, and all of a sudden, without explanation, Aladdin goes unrecognized.
Literally, all he does is wear different clothes and a hat.
Come on Jasmine, get it together.
It's less believable that a fancy outfit would totally change what someone looks like, even to people who already knew them, when it's on a real person and not an animated one. Just look at the Superman movies!
In the film, Aladdin actually asks Genie how his magic works.
People have already seen him, so he is worried the disguise won't be enough.
And all of a sudden, just like that, we have our plot hole fixed!
Right. The Genie also explains that the magic can't completely hide someone's identity —it just masks it by changing one's perception.
It takes a lot of figuring out on the other person's part, but if, like Jasmine, you put your mind to it, you can see through the magic and recognize the person underneath.
Thank you, Guy Ritchie! We really needed that.
