Person 1: This movie has nothing good going for it. Let’s first give a description of what IMDB describes the movie as:
“Being a lone young boy in the ‘hood” is dangerous and unpleasant. This is what Max (Francis Capra) experiences when he fools a gang of local toughs who cornered him at school. The gang finds out that the key he gave them is of no value in committing a robbery, and they chase him through the streets of his neighborhood, bent on revenge. He tries to escape by slipping into the open door of an old warehouse, but they follow him there, too. While running from them through aisles filled with all kinds of stuff, he bumps into an old boom box. By doing that, he manages to release Kazaam (basketball great Shaquille O’Neal), a genie who has been held captive for thousands of years. In order to stay free, Kazaam must give Max three wishes.”

The movie has no actual target audience unless you are a stoner who hasen’t moved out of their parents basement or garage. The movie is too gritty, violent and downbeat for tykes, it’s also a bit juvenile and fairy tale-like for teens and older audiences. One thing is for certain: When a genie movie doesn’t come up with satisfying wishes, it’s a sure sign it’s not really interested in genies but in putting a seven-foot basketball player in a funny outfit.

The genie is played by Shaq O Neil. If you don’t know who Shaq is he is a 7 1 center who played in the NBA for 19 years. In addition to his basketball career, O’Neal has released four rap albums, with his first, Shaq Diesel, going platinum. He has appeared in numerous films with his first, Shaq Diesel, going platinum. He has appeared in numerous films and has starred in his own reality shows, Shaq’s Big Challenge and Shaq Vs. Shaq can’t even act his way through a 30 second commercial for Nestle Crunch or Burger King.

Now I’m thinking he was sitting on the bench one day, and just decided to make a movie. I’m not sure how anyone put 20 million dollars into the movie

As for Shaquille O’Neal, given his own wishes the next time, he should go for a better made movie.
Kids old enough to know about Shaq as a basketball star will be too old to enjoy the movie
