'Wish Dragon' is a total rip-off of 'Aladdin' - but still fun

As kids, Din (Jimmy Wong) and Lina (Natasha Liu Bordizzo) were the best of friends. Then Lina and her father moved away and ten years later, she’s an affluent model and celebrity. Din, now a student, delivers for the family dumpling business, but misses his friend. One day, he is bestowed with a magic teapot in which an all-powerful dragon named Long (John Cho) lives. Long says he can grant Din three wishes, and so begins an adventure through which both learn a lot.
