    From the land beyond beyond, from the valley past hope and fear. I bid you genie now appear.

    I honestly thought I hadn't seen this Sinbad movie, but childhood memories came flooding back as soon as I put it on. In particular, I remembered the little princess visiting the sulky boy genie in the lamp, and also how inconsolable I'd been as a kid when Sinbad's crew killed th...( read more)e poor baby Roc bird ("Awww, bless! Waaaaahhh!!!!!!!!!!"). Colourful but flatly directed, the stellar contributions of composer Bernard Herrmann and stop-motion effects genius Ray Harryhausen give "The 7th Voyage of Sinbad" a touch of class it doesn't really deserve. Of the cast, only Torin Thatcher, as the evil magician Sokurah, Richard Eyer, as the genie, and Mrs Bing Crosby (Kathryn Grant), as Princess Parisa, deliver the goods; Kerwin Matthews is hands down the dreariest seafarer ever to point a scimitar at a plasticine monster. Harryhausen's swordfighting skeleton anticipates his wonderful work on "Jason & the Argonauts".

    Sinbad movies are great! I like the stop-motion animation by Ray Harryhausen. It's a great fantasy adventure.

    For me this movie meant that I was at Grandma's house. You know how grandparents only have 10 movies for you to watch. My grandparents had the Ewoks (Caravan of Courage + Battle for Endor), this one and several others. Lucky me

    I love this movie for its excellent special effects. Okay I lie. But for a film released in 1958 - It's not too bad. Lots of stop-motion animation to bring many creatures to life.
    A great tale of a princess who is shrunk by an evil magician - meaning her husband-to-be, Sinbad, m...( read more)ust take a journey to the monster inhabited island known as Colossa, in order to gain the components needed for the evil magicians potion, that will bring his love back to full size.
    Nice movie to show children what special effects used to be like, before all this fancy stuff these days.

    More great effects by stop motion master Ray Harryhausen!
