Jacomedi A Surprisingly Unforgettable Movie!

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

ganeshv Am a big fan of the lead actor and Rhona Mitra is very cute but the movie overall was bad with the supporting actors just standing around. The first kid movie was much better. Watch only if a fan of the lead pair.

goodfather2002 This has to be the crappiest movie I have ever seen. The special effects on the genie look like the work of a two year old. I know it was low budget but I have seen movies with a third of their budget do better. If you have any desire to buy this on DVD or please not VHS fight the urges.

poetic2000 The opening scene from this movie is amazing, the entire movie is a lesson in cinematography. It was shot on location in Tunisia and the realism of the locations certainly helps to bring the magic tale back to life. Amazing architecture and artifacts in almost every city shot, a treat to location managers and prop people. The script is obviously directed at young children so don't expect much there, your children will enjoy the beautiful special effects and the breathtaking flying carpet effects, this is the first time I see a chase between a winged horse and a digitally animated carpet so professionally done. Most of the special effects are seamless, you won't even know you are looking at a matte painting or a scale model in most cases. Not bad for a small low budget movie. Warning: Rhona Mitra as the teenage princess is so hot she steals the scene everytime she appears on the screen! You might remember her as Laura Croft (for all you video game fans). I recommend you watch it on DVD rather than VHS and with your kids.

hndsompete What a train wreck. I was forced to watch this film under circumstances that I'd rather not repeat here. Everything was wrong with it; the story was predictable, the special effects were the worst I've seen in a 90's film, the princess didn't look like she'd ever been to the Middle East, and who could forget the cheesy hang glider scene?Rating: 1/10
