Just because Shaq is in this movie does not mean it's good. This movie is not just stupid, it's disturbing. I can look past the sexual overtones shown by Kazaam (Only because they're not always intended) but this movie is just... Full review

Well I wouldn't say this is an all time bad movie. As a kid I used to like it but now looking at it from my stand point it's not very good. However it's not the worst movie of all time.... Full review

I see alot of bad reviews for this comedy with Shaquille O'Neal, but as we all know, he is not an actor. He made a few movies that probably were not successful, but everybody has a downfall, and this certainly was... Full review

remove my senses with a rusty scapel, this "movie" insults anyone with half a functional brain, which could be why they cast Shaq. From his singing and dancing routine to the over the top acting job he did, or did not... Full review

This "movie" is a Hollywood experiment gone terribly wrong. Casting talentless losers like Shaq, goes to show how Hollywood feels about making crap movies. Kazaam, is such a piece of s*** just like Shaq's rapping, and what about that butt ass... Full review

This movie really helped me find myself. Before I saw this movie, I wandered this streets crying often knowing my life had no purpose. Until one faithful day, I found myself in Chuckey Cheese on my usual drinking binge. When... Full review

Kazaam" will leave even them wishing for more of the genie's playful trickery to make up for lackluster comedy in the story.....Instead of being a buddy comedy, the film focuses more on Kazaam and Max's separate problems and dreams.....81 digital effects by Rhythm & Hues fail to leave older members of the audience mesmerized..... ...

Kazaam" is actually worse than that.....let's just say he's a better free-throw shooter than an actor.....Capra's irritating performance helps, too.....Kazaam" is ridiculously padded and seems longer than its 90 minutes.....O'Neal has the extreme misfortune of being the big name associated with "Kazaam," an unpleas.... ...

The other reason "Kazaam" fails is because it fights with itself. Surely, if granted three wishes, they could have produced a better film. The effect of such thinly painted characters, of course, is to make the movie implausible to start with. ... Full Review

In its most fantastic moments, Kazaam is whipping up some remarkable, if totally silly, miracles. When a kid releases a genie, you expect him to have a good time, and genies like Kazaam don't grow on trees. Art director Mick Strawn. ... Full Review

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 interlude of synthetic wonder, where the kid looks slack-jawed at all the special effects. ... Full Review
