There's more shtick than you can shake a stick at in this goofy sequel to the 1995 comedy A Kid in King Arthur's Court. Thomas Ian Nicholas returns as Calvin, a deceptively commonplace '90s teen whose pizza-delivery job gets him mixed up in an ancient quest to help Ali Baba save Aladdin--and all of Arabia--from the evil schemes of Aladdin's brother, Luxor. Just as Calvin relied on rollerblades and CD players to help him in the previous movie, his stash of contemporary gizmos gets him out of more than one jam when Luxor's henchmen come looking for him. There's a fair amount of F/X magic here--including the traditional opening of Ali Baba's hideaway at the command "open sesame"--but silliness is the real engine of this movie. (Ali Baba and his Forty Thieves? Try Ali and his Three Lamebrained Brothers.) Comic actor Taylor Negron is very funny as Aladdin's smart-aleck genie, stuck inside a lamp for a thousand years but hip enough to describe Luxor as "gone postal." --Tom Keogh

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun Movie for the Whole Family, June 7, 2004

By	Mr Movie Critic (Louisville, Kentucky) - See all my reviews

I brought this movie home for my nine year old son to watch and ended up watching it with him. The acting and story line is good, and expect for a few bad special effects at the end (the flying carpet scenes are a little rough) it was a really good movie. (It helps that the princess in the movie is easy on the eyes..). A good rental choice. Four Stars.

1.0 out of 5 stars so-so, March 29, 2000

By	Kelly Bunce (New York, USA) - See all my reviews

I gave this movie 1 star because it was not original at all. It was a bad sequal to a good movie. Younger kids however could enjoy it and it does star a great role model of an actor. If you have youngsters they will probably enjoy it but 9 and older will probably not enjoy it as much.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Movie!!, May 12, 2006

By	PrincessMars09 "Raye" (Oakland, CA, USA) - See all my reviews

I'm 18 and I love this movie every time I watch it. Yes, the plot as well as the script are extremely corny and cheesy and the actress who plays the princess loks old enough to be in her thirties, but it is an entertaining movie nonetheless. It portrays a nice adventure for anyone wishing to get away from the troubles of life for a while and return later. It's a great modern Aladdin story as was said in another review and I recommend it to anyone, espcially in my generation.
