Chris12955 So the film would lead you to believe. Mr. Poe's actual story bears little to no similarities to this tale, but the fact that it opens with the claim that it is based on his story is just part of the inane fun that is SINBAD OF THE SEVEN SEAS! This is a film so poorly written, acted, directed, and conceived, with horrible dubbing that it takes on an air of the absurd. If you are not laughing at the film at some point, you must not have a good sense of humor. Fun fact, the short story Edgar Allen Poe actually wrote, "The Thousand and Second Tale of Scheherazade," is an amusing story(far better than this movie) in which Scheherazade tells of Sinbad's last adventure in which real things from an outsiders perspective are described, but not believed by the King.The Story: Sinbad returns home to find that the evil Jaffar has rested control of the kingdom with his sorcery and brought an age of darkness. Sinbad and his intrepid crew must find the four magic gems that will return peace to the land and save the princess.Three out of ten stars for the film(I've sadly seen worse) and nine out of ten for unintentional humor.
Merkal-2 I fell in this movie on accident. The name Jaffar and Prince Ali fell so I thought I was watching "Thief of Bagdad" (Most who is reading this doesn't know but Disney's Aladdin was for a part inspired by Thief of Bagdad, names and plot) so I was excited. When the name Sinbad fell it made me frown, I didn't understand what Sinbad and Prince Ali (who I thought was Aladdin) did in the same movie. or I remember hearing my friends, who seen this movie, mentioning Sinbad in Thief of Bagdad. I turned out too be a Sinbad movie and the Prince Ali character was just a part of his crew and had not much dialog his reasons was that he wanted to marry this princess Alina (who I, at that moment, thought was the live-action version of the beautiful, strong Princess Jasmine from "Aladdin") The princess wasn't much better she just let her be captured by the wizard and waited, chained, for her rescuer who came in the form of Sinbad. Another something I didn't understand, why Sinbad and not the prince? The prince wanted too marry her right and not Sinbad. Anyway I decided too watch it I found another Aladdin refer, the kalif looked a little like the sultan of Agrabah. The further the movie passed along the more I started too dislike it. The plot it self would be fine for a movie but the rest was bad. The movie had nothing too do with the wonderful Disney's Aladdin. I don't recommend renting this movie, waste of money. If you wanna see Sinbad brought to live on TV I recommend watching "Adventures of Sinbad, The" (1996)" But don't watch this, waste of time & money, movie.
2&2 One of my favorite comedies, although it's not supposed to be one. So incredibly bad, it's amazing! Some of the stupidest dialogue ever, and some ridiculous fight scenes. Lou Ferrigno is a joy to watch, especially his hilarious facial expressions. Watch this movie with a bunch of friends, but do not drink milk while doing so, otherwise it'll come spewing out of your nose!
mde2 TV's Incredible Hulk, Lou Ferrigno's fourth in a series of Italian made sword and sandal flicks he starred in during the 1980s. Sinbad succeeded two Hercules films and one titled, The Seven Magnificent Gladiators. He reprised roles played by US musclemen, such as Steve Reeves and Gordon Scott, who worked for Italian studios in the early 60s making loads of sword and sandal flicks. In fact, Lou's efforts along with other flicks such as Conan, the Deathstalker series and Lee Horsley's Sword And The Sorcerer were part of an 80s' revival of the 60s' sword and sandal/sorcery genre.This version of Sinbad was apparently intended for TV but never made it. Beefed up special effects grace this movie version. However, any Sinbad film has to be compared to the three gems made by Ray Harryhausen, the most successful of which was The Golden Voyage Of Sinbad in 1973. Ray's meticulously worked stop motion special effects leave those in Sinbad Of The Seven Seas standing, and that's the point; this film is so wooden. The plot calls for Sinbad to bring home some special stones so that his pal the Prince can marry his beloved Princess who is being held by an evil wizard (John Steiner). He sets sail with a crew that includes a Viking and a Samurai warrior and overcomes such adversities as a laser beam shooting monster and soldiers that rise from the dead. His last feat finds him wrestling himself . See this if you like Lou Ferrigno (he still looks great and has let his curly hair grow out Afro style) and/or sword and sandal pics - just don't expect to be riveted to your seat.
