4 out of 5 action rating

See it – This is the very best movie adaption of a video game to date. But it's not in very good company, so is that really saying much? The story has been very "Disney-fied." The actors were poorly chosen, and they are obviously not Persian (look, I don't care if they're white, but at least put make-up on 'em). There is also that fun, comedic, "Pirates of the Caribbean" type atmosphere that is present in all Disney movies. That being said, this is not a live-action "Aladdin." This is an exciting, sometimes spectacular adventure movie with plenty of desert battles, rooftop chases, daring escapes, and non-stop Arabian action.
