Featured review
One of seductive Soviet films for fair mix of humor, nice special effects (naif for our time ), acting - the androgenous Aladin , acted by Boris Bystrov or the naif, spoiled princess Budur offered by Dodo Chokovadze , Andrei Fajt as the dark witcher and the to easy manipulated sultan of Otar Kokeridze are good points of a film who seems have a precise target - ex kids of Comunist world. Because, maybe i am wrong, the sweetness of film works, for new generations, not very well.
But, sure, the flavors of nostalgia to middle age persons and little older are good gift . And, be real honest, it is just a beautiful version of Aladin story, better, in many senses by others, with higher ambitions.
In short, seductive, amusing and, bizarre, maybe, for a part of viewers,well crafted .
