Editorial Review:

Description:
Aladdin's thrilling adventure continues with ALADDIN: THE RETURN OF JAFAR and ALADDIN AND THE KING OF THIEVES -- together for the first time on DVD in the ALADDIN II & III COLLECTION. This exciting two-movie set features two times the magic, two times the fun, and all your favorite characters!

Amazon.com:
The Return of Jafar, the 1994, direct-to-video follow-up to Aladdin (it's actually four episodes of the Aladdin television program, back-to-back) is a wash-out compared to the Robin Williams-driven animation feature that kicked off the franchise. The story partially involves the villainous Jafar's parrot--Iago--trying to leave his master and befriend Aladdin and Jasmine. Williams is nowhere to be found, unfortunately; the genie's voice is provided by Dan Castellaneta, and the difference shows. --Tom Keogh

Robin Williams returns as the voice of the hyperactive genie in Aladdin and the King of Thieves, the second direct-to-video sequel to Disney's hit animated feature. Aladdin, the street beggar turned Prince, risks all to find his father among the cutthroat 40 thieves and joins his quest to find a Midas-like stone that turns everything it touches into gold. A significant cut above most made-for-video animation, this energetic adventure largely leaves Princess Jasmine and the genie behind for a father-and-son quest. Guest voice Jerry Orbach suggests Sean Connery with his thick-as-molasses delivery as the master thief Sa'luk and, despite his limited screen time, Williams once again delights with his wild flights of fantasy as the big blue Genie. A rousing tale full of last-minute escapes and spectacular, kid-sized thrills that even parents will find entertaining. --Sean Axmaker

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fun Classic Disney Movie!!
I love Aladdin and these two movies complete my set...a must have for any Disney fan



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Two Inferior Sequels Get a DVD Release
This two disc set is the only official way to get the direct to video sequels to Aladdin. While they have their moments, they are worth it only for die hard fans.

Up first is "Return of Jafar." In it, Jafar and Iago manage to escape from the Cave of Wonders and set out for the palace. Iago wants to get back into the palace, but Jafar is intent on revenge. Can he ruin Aladdin's new life? And how do you kill an all powerful genie?

Rounding out the trilogy is "Aladdin ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great set to own
Aladdin is my fav. they are both master pieces, a must for aladdin fans.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Extremely FUN Sequels
I don't understand why these movies are so panned by everyone. I actually like the sequels just as much as the original, infact, in the case of "The Return of Jafar" I like it more than the original classic. Why?

They are incredibly FUN movies. Fun to just get lost in and have a blast with the characters. "Return of Jafar" features some of the best Disney songs ever to sing along too. "Forget About Love" actually has the honor of being my FAVOURITE Disney song of all-time. It starts ... Read More
