Come see Aladdin projected on stunning 35mm film on the big screen in L3!

Aladdin remains one of Disney’s most recognisable and endlessly rewatchable animated classics, owing much of its appeal to the timeless familiarity that defines the studio’s finest work. Set in the vibrant city of Agrabah, the film follows resourceful street thief Aladdin, whose fate changes dramatically upon discovering a magic lamp housing an ancient and exuberant Genie. From this moment on, he must navigate newfound power and responsibility. The film manages to capture the romantic undertones characteristic of Disney, with Aladdin attempting to woo the fiercely independent Princess Jasmine. However, Aladdin’s conflict with the power-hungry Jafar brings a level of high stakes drama and action that is sure to keep viewers engaged throughout. Above all, one of the most impressive facets of this animated classic is how it maintains a consistent sense of momentum throughout, incorporating humour, character dynamics, and visual style that all feel distinct. Aladdin offers a reliable and genuinely enjoyable viewing experience that benefits greatly from being seen with an audience. Its familiarity works in its favour, making it an easy film to return to time and time again. [Nell Carter]
