So, 'New Ali Baba' is this quirky blend of adventure and comedy with a dash of fantasy that takes some interesting turns. The plot revolves around this evil wizard trying to seize King Solomon's magic lantern, but the catch is that only someone born exactly like Solomon can lay claim to it. Enter Ali Baba, portrayed by a young actor with a certain charm, whose life takes a wild turn alongside his brother Ali Mama, played by Eric Tsang. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but there’s a sort of whimsical charm to it. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, have a certain nostalgic quality. You can see the influences of classic tales, but it doesn’t shy away from inserting its own humor, making for a lighthearted watch with some interesting themes about destiny and courage.
