The Best Movie Remakes from 2018-2021
Aladdin
A remake of the 1992 animated Disney Aladdin arrived in theatres in May of 2019. The film was able to minimize the cultural inaccuracies from the original version and attempted to create a more respectful version of Aladin. But, some people were still not satisfied. Regardless, it surpassed the original in the box office, by making $604.9 million worldwide after a little over two weeks of release. Although the genie and Robbin Williams go hand in and hand, Will Smith successfully filled these large shoes and surprised audiences with his own take on the genie. All in all, people certainly enjoyed the movie, bringing in $1.044 billion in ticket sales globally.
