John Phillip Law is decent as Sinbad, whilst Tom Baker chews whole mountainsides as the sorcerer Koura, meanwhile Caroline Munro looks pretty but is devoid of acting talent. It's also fun seeing Martin Shaw in an earlyish role as Sinbad's right hand man, Rachid.
Watching it on Indicator's beautiful Blu-ray in 2021 it's clear how much of an influence this film was on George Lucas and Steven Spielberg as so many ideas in it have been seen again in their Indiana Jones movies. |
Love sinbad films and stuff like jason and the Argonauts .
