tom I was waiting for the monsters and the magic, but, they never appeared. Does not compare with the classic "The 7th Voyage of Sinbad". Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Gloriously overacted and colourful period epic. Always fun to watch. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member It's hard to imagine that people really loved this film when it first came out. You might enjoy it if you're not expecting too much, but it is lacking in adventure which is the one thing you expect to get from a film like this. It's a very old film and it shows. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Sail with me An old and aging Sinbad who has retired from the adventure way of life tells his tails to a group of other old and dying men. The men are sick of hearing the same old seven tales of Sinbad that seem to get more ambitious with each telling...so Sinbad tells them a less told tale of his adventures. "All the seven voyages are magnified." "Why not astonish? Sinbad is an astonishing sailor!" Richard Wallace, director of The Young in Heart, The Fallen Sparrow, Tycoon, Framed, Adventure in Baltimore, A Kiss for Corliss, The Road to Reno, and Captain Caution, delivers Sinbad, The Sailor. The storyline for this picture has a classic Sinbad feel to it with awesome settings and costumes, pretty girls, and unearthly adventures. The acting is very solid and the cast includes Douglas Fairbanks, Maureen O'Hara, Anthony Quinn, Jane Greer, and George Tobias. "The sun is my gold." I recently came across this on Turner Classic Movies (TCM) and had to DVR it as a huge Sinbad fan. This was very well done and I enjoyed the feel and pace of the film. This was far from the best Sinbad picture, but it was worth a viewing. "It's a fine day for the coffin makers." Grade: C+ Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review s r An epic, but a bit wordy. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Lavish, well mounted swashbuckler, but I think I still prefer the silly and admittedly more juvenile Ray Harryhausen Sinbad films. Douglas Fairbanks Jr. channels his father and the always great Maureen O'Hara helps the film out a lot too. Entertaining, though mostly forgettable.
