A kid named Max encounters a genie named Kazaam (Shaquille O'Neal). The film portrays having a second chance, parenting and even getting into detention. Product placements from Pepsi and Reebok since Shaq is their endorser. So many cheesy lines and too childish sequences. The rap scenes were very dull and acting just idiotic. Effects used were cartoon like and its just difficult to see grown men react to kids. Kazaam, much like double team, could have been left to actors, not basketball players. |

This may be one of the worst films ever made. It's a horrible premise that comes complete with bad acting, stale jokes, and an annoying child actor lead. |

'Kazaam' is nothing short of annoying. A rapping genie in a boom box discovered by a spoiled little kid. You know the kind of kid you see in the grocery store giving their parent hell because they want a candy bar. Imagine a movie jam packed with that. If I had gotten a boom box when I was a kid I would be appreciative, much less a genie inside. I fell asleep during 2 attempts to watch this movie. Honestly I didn't make a third attempt, so I have no idea how it ends, but then again I don't CARE.

It stars Shaq... as a genie... ugh, just thinking about it is giving me a headache. Seriously, if you consider watching this, you should seek professional help - I don't even think MST3K could have saved this. |
