The evil Jafar escapes from the magic lamp as an all-powerful genie, ready to plot his revenge against Aladdin.

yeeeaaap , just another disastrous sequel , seems it's not just a Hollywood thing after all.don't get me wrong, the movie by itself is very entertaining, Disney's magic definitely shows in this movie no doubt, but ,,, and it's a big but (no pun intended) it's not the animation quality you expect from Disney, it didn't take long to see that, it actually happens in the first seconds of the movie.Finally, I would love to say those "Arabs" does not look like any Arab I met in my life and I'm Arabian, sooooo,,, where did you get that from Disney?

There are some films that leave no room for sequels but they end up being made because of money. If a certain film was a success, its certain that it will have a sequel that, normally, will not be worth a third of the initial movie. That was precisely what happened here: the film was a success and this sequel was made to raise some more coins. Based on an unsuccessful attempt by Jafar to come back to haunt Aladdin's life, the film is a disaster, starting with the fact that it does not have enough screenplay to justify a feature film. It would be at most a short film! It is a poor and meager story. It has no animation, no joke, no good songs like the first movie. It has songs, but they are a total pity. It's a movie that should not have been made.

I had this film on VHS back in the day and i just re-watched it today it was good but not as good as i remembered it the first film was better but still a pretty fun sequel. The problems with it was the animation the characters colors looked more darker and the Genie looked less Blue and his face looked kinda weird also he was kinda weak in the final battle. Jafar is great as always and i must say i liked this ending better than the Original movies ending more Genie Jafar is always great probably my favorite look of him. Anyways if you loved the fist film you're going to love this one also but the absence of Robin Williams as the Genie is kinda meh but still he's good as always.

Aladdin is my favorite Disney-movie. It took a whole lot of years from the first time I watched that one and till now, when I watched the sequel. And I'm kinda glad. Had I seen this when I was little, I might have been disappointed. Why? Well, let me tell ya!The Return of Jafar is not even comparable to Aladdin. Aladdin (1992) is one of Disneys greatest movies. The Return of Jafar is a cheap looking typical made-for-TV animation feature. The animation is cheap. I mean, it doesn't even seem to follow Disneys own 12 principles of animation. It's shoddy, jittery and sloppy. A lot of the time the drawings are down right bad. It's very clear that the budget for this was just a fraction of the budget for Aladdin (1992).Genies voice has been replaced with Home.. uhm, Dan Castellaneta. He did a good job, though. Besides, I actually prefer the Norwegian dub, for Aladdin, so I'm not very familiar with Williams Genie anyway.The movie is not all bad, though. It's short, which is good. It's nice to see these characters again, cheap as they may look. The story is, well, there hardly is a story at all, really. It even has some plot holes. (not that I care) But the movie is, you know, made for kids, and gets the job done I guess. It's just very generic, and nothing like the excellent quality that is Aladdin (1992).Just have to add: I feel so mean when I slam the animation so hard, because someone still spent hour upon hour drawing this stuff. Animation is beyond time consuming. I know, because I've done it myself. OK. Anyway, you'll find plenty other, better animations feature films than this. That's my last word!
