Adam Green's Aladdin

In this modern retelling of the Arabian Nights classic tale, Aladdin is an out-of-work indie-rock singer living in a video-game world ruled by a perverted technology-obsessed Sultan. The film presents a darkly comedic exploration of themes such as government repression, greed, and true love, set against the backdrop of a dysfunctional family living in an average American city. With its unique blend of fantasy, comedy, drama, and adventure, Adam Green's Aladdin is a refreshingly offbeat take on a timeless tale.
