The role of Jasmine transforms from the strong damsel-in-distress female needing Aladdin to rescue her to the budding political leader of her country in which Aladdin becomes her partner rather than her savior. Her new song, “Speechless” is the film’s anthem for the Women’s Movement. She has this moment at the end of the film, which is unique to a Disney Princess and will inspire young girls. That said, I’ll take the hit on this one, as much as I liked the moment, it does come across as a little heavy-handed. In other words, if this film came out before the 2016 election, it would have been shot in a way that’s more organic to the overall story. Instead, it feels like a blatant social/political statement. That said, it’s still a great moment.
As a chapter in the Disney classic remakes, Jungle Book still stands at the top. Behind it is Aladdin and Cinderella fighting for second place with the rest as a distant whatever.

8 out of 10 stars
Not sure why you think that this is above Beauty and the Beast, but it isn’t.
I’m not saying this is bad, but Beauty and the Beast remains one of the few live action Disney movies that are true to their cartoon counterpart.
probably one of the best movies i’ve seen in awhile. whoever says it sucks is wrong lmao.
if you haven’t seen the movie yet and not sure its worth it- go and see it. it was beautiful
No me lo puedo creer, usted critica lo de la canción de JAZMÍN como antes d dl 2016 la cosa sería diferente, pero luego dice que le gusto,como si de un lobby tuviera miedo por no poner lo que ellos quieren…… creo que os equivocáis con esa forma de pensar , la Jazmín original no era una damisela en peligro ella misma de valía por sí sola.
The jungle book is trash, the only good live action one was beauty and the beast , cinderella was meh, aladdin is total trash 8/10 stars? lmfao
