This take on the Aladdin tale is brought to you from the "Faerie Tale Theatre" and like most "Faerie Tale" efforts, is bound to please. It can do no less with
James Earl Jones as the "don't-mess-with-me" type genie and
Valerie Bertinelli, a lovely princess who's caught Aladdin's eye. Add risty McNichol,
Leonard Nimoy and
John Carradine and the piece shines. ~ All Movie Guide
