Amazon.com: This junk-candy movie stars Shaquille O'Neal as a genie who not only becomes a little boy's protector but also a problem in his oversized ubiquity. Kids will enjoy the concept and the ongoing visual joke of juxtaposing a small child with O'Neal, but the film (directed by Paul Michael Glaser) isn't always particularly wholesome. It also has that messy, semiliterate storytelling look where editing logic goes out the window in favor of a more impulsive style of throwing out one busy image after another. --Tom Keogh

Rating: - There's only one Shaq Diesel
Shaq Diesel (aka Shaquille O'Neal) has done what few professional athletes have ever accomplished - successfully crossed over to the big screen. I like the cover of this movie. Still have yet to see the whole thing, but not because I didn't want to watch it - I keep seeming to get interupted, and I'm starting to get a little frustrated.
Based on Shaq's other endeavors (rap albums, sense of style, etc.) I can GUARANTEE this movie is high caliber. I feel like Shaq really likes kids, which is fun. I'm the sure the movie is fun too!
Rating: - a masterpiece
Kazaam is a terrific piece of filmmaking with great acting(Shaq should have won an oscar for his convincing role as the genie),a well-written script,good direction by Paul Michael Glaser who is the next Stanley Kubrick,and the production values that are above-average. A troubled teen(Francis Capra,who also should have got an supporting actor oscar for his terrific role) meets a rappin' genie and then he makes 3 wishes. This film should won an oscar for BEST PICTURE because this movie is the Citizen Kane of the 90s and it even beats Pulp Fiction as the best movie ever made because this movie is wonderful, in other words Kazaam is a bore. AVOID IT!!!!!!!!!!!
Rating: - HACK A SHAQ
SHAQ is one of my favourite basketball players. His dominance in the paint is spectacular. That's probably the only good thing I'm gonna say about SHAQ'S performance. When I first saw this movie at a video store, Shaq was on the front cover with a big ass smile and he's coming out a boom box, I was like `damn this could be kinda good' so I got myself a copy, went home, put it on and started watching it. After I saw it, I was like `what the hell was this all about?' I mean, I'd rather watch the Barkley and Shaq fight again or the Lakers being swept in the playoffs by Spurs in 1999. I believe the plot of Kazaam is focusing on this little punk kid called Max and his family problems rather than seeing Shaq truly perform. It was such a shame to see a great idea thrown to waste, I mean, the producers or director or the script writer could have improved a lot. Having Shaq to be a genie is a damn cool idea, I mean, think about it, the sky is the limit.
The only cool bits I liked were when Shaq came out of the boom box and he's singing that rhyme and you see all these punk kids get scared of a badass 7 foot genie. The other thing I liked was when he slammed the fat man in the hoop (Funny he never took a free throw). All the rest was stupid.
Regarding to Shaq's acting. I can't really argue on that. Reason being, Shaq is not an actor in the first place, doesn't mean he can't get away with performance. The way I see it, Shaq is acting like he is performing to an audience on TV, similar to comedy shows i.e. Eddie Murphy. I know some people think it's ugly. But I'm not going to criticise Shaq, on his acting career, everybody knows he's not an actor, and to criticise him negatively as an actor is insulting to actors because people forget about what acting really is. Some people don't take acting seriously, they think it's easy or anybody can do it, trust me, it's not, you have to study for this like any other major, such as biology, dentistry, engineering etc... you can't just act, unless your gifted, the point is, Shaq aint even an actor, so anybody that has negative comments can drop it. You wanna criticise a real actor? You can talk about other people in the movie business.
In conclusion, I believe Kazaam is for 3 year olds. Certainly not for kids over 5, and defiantly not for teenagers and you damn right it's not for anybody over 20.
Rating: - Can't stand Ka-zaam!!!!!
Jesus forgave us. Jesus forgave us all. He was unmercifully staked to a crucifix and left to slowly die, only to rise again and have to bare witness to the up chuck of a film entitled Kazaam. He gave us all a second chance and unfortunately director, Paul Michael Glaser used his second chance to create this blasphemous work of the devil. Well let me tell you, Jesus is mad at us once again and I don't think he will ever forgive us this time.
Kazaam depicts NBA star Shaquille O'Neal rapping??? and acting??? in scantily clad genie attire. Shaqs acting??? makes a drain-o enema actually seem like a pleasurable experience. It even makes his free throw ability shine in comparison. I'm still dumbfounded how someone that made such timeless greats as "Shaq diesel" and my all time favorite game "Shaq-Fu" could bomb so bad on a movie with a script as awing as this one.
You can pick up a previewed VHS copy here on Amazon.com for $0.85. I find it funny that a blank VHS tape will run you $1.00. I saved myself some money by buying a few copies of Kazaam instead of blank tapes and used them to record "Small Wonder" reruns. This is the only reason one should purchase Kazaam. If anyone is thinking of buying a copy and actually viewing it, don't! You would be better off using that $0.85 to buy a hand full of rusty nails and chewing them for the approximate running time of 1hr 45mins. Thrust me your time and money will be much better spent this way.
I gave this film??? 1 out of 5 stars only because Amazon.com doesn't allow you to give 0 stars. I wish I could rate this 0 stars. In fact I wish I could take away stars from some of the other reviewers. Hey, maybe Mr. Kazaam can help me out here.
Mr. Kazaam grant me these three wishes:
1. Give this movie 0 stars
2. Don't allow Shaq to ever act/rap again
3. Erase this movie from my memory banks for it has scard me for life.
