This is awful. Smith's strained vocals aside, for a musical number it's lifeless. It has no bounce, no physicality. There are no ideas or gags. It's so weirdly literal. https://t.co/OxG8crQOAL

Wow this looks really boring.

Not even comparing it to the original. Comparing it to MOST choreographed musicals and movies out there, this scene is so...flat https://t.co/8ezguNg3oE
Others pointed out that the snippet seemed "lifeless" and "flat", leaving many feeling disappointed with Smiths performance in the highly regarded role made famous by the late Robin Williams.
They should've got A Bollywood director to get this right... It looks awfully slow. https://t.co/9iccsEEkUR

Another commenter on Twitter suggested that they should have gotten a Bollywood director to breathe life into the film properly.
Here is the song from the original movie by comparison:
However, there were still Aladdin fans that admitted they didn’t mind the scene and still can’t wait to see the movie in full once it’s released.
"Maybe this segment will work better within the context of the film," one Twitter user reasoned.
Another added that people needed to give Will Smith’s Genie more of a "chance".
Maybe this segment will work better within the context of the film. Having only the cartoon as a reference point though its just a slower paced version with less visual flair and of course neither of those qualities are ideal.

NEWS FLASH Will Smith’s Prince Ali version is not as flashy because this is a live-action, NOT a cartoon. Give Will’s Genie a chance! Geesh #May24th #Aladdin pic.twitter.com/uzWNsz7C3q
