Aladdin 3D Blu-ray Movie Review

One of the best live-action Disney remakes soars on 3D Blu-ray

Aladdin (2019) is Disney's live-action adaptation of the beloved animated 1992 musical. Featuring a cast that includes Will Smith (Genie), Mena Massoud (Aladdin), and Naomi Scott (Jasmine), family audiences will be taken on a magic carpet ride to a fun and high-spirited land worth experiencing. Brimming with high production values and the great music of legendary Disney composer Alan Menken (Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid), there is plenty of fun for the entire family.

"3 Wishes? Dimensions 1, 2, and 3. Done."

To read more on the film and release please refer to the review published by my fellow Blu-ray.com colleague, Martin Liebman. Please note my rating on the film itself is my own opinion on the film.

Note: Screenshots featured in this 3D review are from the 1080p Blu-ray disc.

Aladdin 3D Blu-ray Movie, Video Quality 

A whole new world. Watching Aladdin in 3D is in many respects a dream come true. Encoded with an immersive 1080p MPEG-4 MVC presentation, Aladdin is more breathtaking, entertaining, and fun in 3D than in any other format the world can offer audiences. The transfer has an impressive use of 3D effects with many moments in the film showcasing the Genie demonstrating his immense energy and vibrancy in (blue) spades.

The special effects soar and leap off the screen. The depth is remarkable and the image is consistently immersive, vibrant, and beautiful to behold in high-definition. There were no issues with ghosting, crosstalk, and other 3D anomalies when viewed on my display. A fantastic encode that makes the film even more enjoyable.

Aladdin 3D Blu-ray Movie, Audio Quality 

The Blu-ray release has received a 7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio presentation and it sounds downright terrific on the 3D edition. Though the release lacks the Dolby Atmos track which is included on the 4K UHD edition, the soundtrack is nonetheless immersive, entertaining, and effective throughout the film. Aladdin fans will not feel disappointed by the quality soundstage.

For more information on the audio-track, please refer to the standard Blu-ray review by my colleague Martin Liebman.

Aladdin 3D Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation

The release comes highly recommended.
