Cape Town – Go on a magic carpet ride with Aladdin in cinemas this weekend.
The highly-anticipated remake of the 1992 Disney classic stars Will Smith, Mena Massoud and Naomi Scott.
Also showing: Charlize Theron and Seth Rogen in a romantic comedy and Judi Dench plays a real-life spy.
Here are the 3 new films releasing in SA:
Movie: Aladdin
Our rating: 3/5
Short review: While the trailers had people worried about the live-action Aladdin, the star-power of Will Smith and his delightful co-stars makes this a fun jaunt through Agrabah.
Movie: Long Shot
Our rating: Long Shot will make you think, it will make you laugh, and it will make you feel good – and that's exactly what the world needs now.
Short review: 5/5
Movie: Red Joan
Our rating: 2/5
Short review: No amount of Judi Dench can save this mediocre twist of a real story.
