From the land of myths and legends - India - comes a fantasy adventure for the entire family. Directed by Sujoy Ghosh, 'Aladin' is a modern re-imagining of the classic tale of 'Aladin and The Magic Lamp'.

Aladin Chatterjee (Riteish Deshmukh) lives in the city of Khwaish, an orphan who has been bullied since childhood by Kasim and his gang. But his life changes when Jasmine (Jacqueline Fernandez) gives him a magic lamp - because it lets loose the genie Genius (Amitabh Bachchan). Desperate to grant him 3 wishes and seek the end of his contract with the Magic Lamp, the rock-star Genius makes Aladin's life difficult until the real threat looms on the horizon : the ex-genie Ringmaster (Sanjay Dutt). Why does Ringmaster want to kill Aladin? What is the dark secret about Aladin's past that Genius is carrying? And what is Aladin's destiny? Find out more in this swashbuckling fantasy adventure film from Eros International and Boundscript Production.

But all their [actors's] enthusiasm and special effects wizardry is let down by the half-baked story. Aladin never soars.

Aladin is a spectacle of sweeping sets, lavish dance numbers and never-before-seen visual effects

In the first half you wish for the interval, in the second half you wish for the film to end.

Truly, a big let down from director Sujoy Ghosh
