Sacha Baron Cohen's new film 'Ali G: Who Iz I?' brought back his fake talk-show host character, this time positioning Ali G himself as the film's political subject, according to a Variety review published October 22, 2026. Critics described the film as having scattered funny moments but called it dawdling and less relevant than intended. The review likened the project to a 'Saturday Night Live' movie spinoff such as 'MacGruber,' suggesting the concept struggled to justify a feature-length format.
