There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

While none are favourites of mine, I do like the output of Burbank Animation Studios, even with the limitations some of them have. This Ali Baba does have some rather stiff character animation, dialogue that comes across as corny and some of the voice acting is rather clichéd and lacking in subtlety. However, the backgrounds are suitably colourful, the story sticks generally in spirit to the original story and is engaging especially for the main target audience and the music is pleasant and dynamic with what is going on. The characters are not as compelling as they are in the story but are likable enough here.Overall, there has been better from Burbank, such as The Count of Monte Cristo, Hansel and Gretel and Hans and the Silver Skates, but it is still very watchable. 7/10 Bethany Cox
