Summary: This is really a terrible picture.....
Review: As a huge Ray Harryhousen fan I find this very difficult to say; This film stinks! Now I expect a lot of negetive reaction to this (If anyone reads it!) but I don't believe in sugar-coating things. I tell it like it is, and as a complete film endeaver(acting, camera work, etc.)this is far bellow typical R.H. standards. The DVD leaves something to be desired also. Following is a list of reasons why I feal this way...THE FILM -As much as I admire R.H.'s work, some of the animation in SATIOT appeared tired and rehashed. The 3 demons were a prime example. They moved so slow that I doubt they could produce enough velocity to break skin. It was a pale stepchild to the "Jason and the Argonauts" Skeleton battle.
-At release, much was made of R.H.'s efforts to control extranious hair movement during animation. In recent viewing, I'd have to say he still had a way to go. The baboon model has some enormous fir "jumps".
-The Smilodon had a very toy-like appearance. This is unusual for a R.H. film.
-There are so many matt shots it gets rediculous. They even used them in scenes that they had the opportunity to do shots on location without any monsters.
-The story was more shallow than usual. The evil scoreress's behavior is often inexplicable. Why did'nt she just sink Sinbads boat? Because there were some nifty models that still needed animating! She wants her son to be Califf. so why then does she tell him to attack 4 well armed men all by himself? That's just silly!
-The acting was... the acting... The actors were there to fight monsters. Nuff said.
-The Minoton(?) was one of the better creatures in this film and is written out of the film by "a falling block?" He never enguages in battle. NOT ONCE!
-The Troglodite was this films saving grace. An extremely sympathetic character who is animated brilliantly. His integration into the live action is unsurpassed.
-The music was passable. I especially enjoyed the droning rythems mirroring the Minoton's tireless rowing. THE DVD -Picture Quality is Bright and has good color, but the print used was dirty and scratched.
-Sound was bellow average. Did they really still produce mono films in the late 70s?
-Extras are quite good. "The Harryhausen Chronicles" has a lot of great vintage R.H. footage and sketches. Also very insightful concerning the "whys" and "why-nots".
-Trailers are awesome. The picture and sound quality of the trailers was actually better than the main feature.
-Packaging is a typical plastic keepcase with a nice "menu" insert. After reading all this you would probably think I hate this film. On the contrary!! I always enjoy watching Harryhausen films. This one just falls short of it's predecessors. That does not mean it is not enjoyable. Just remember, I'm a BIG R.H. fan!! But I think I enjoy his early "B" movies with "Monster-scafold" scripts and brilliant black & white more than this "what the heck, let's make a movie" production. I'm still dissapointed that Columbia/Tristar won't generate clean copies with good sound for all of the "Classic" Harryhausen efforts.

Summary: sinbad and the eye of the tiger
Review: As in all the Sinbad movies with Harryhausen effects I loved it. I love Ray Harryhausen's work in the special effects. Wish he would have made more movies. Sure there was cheese but I enjoyed this movie.

Summary: Harryhausen does it again
Review: Ending his Sinbad trilogy Ray Harryhausen again creates incredible animated effects that continue to amaze today. His hand done stop motion effects must be seen to be believed. All of todays computer effects may wow you but when you realize the effects in the movie were done by hand by ONE MAN, now that should WOW you. An interesting cast including John Waynes son, Tyrone Powers daughter, and Jane Seymour. Digitally mastered audio and anamorphic video make this superior to the VHS version, and again the features are a lot of fun. A really enjoyable film for the whole family that will take you back to the days of Saturday matinees.

Summary: simply amazing
Review: I first saw Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger in the movie theater
years ago and I loved it. I haven't seen it recently,but I would
like to. The film kept my attention all the way through. I thoroughly disagree that the acting was bad. I thought it was
pretty good myself. Frankly,if you are not into science-fiction
and fantasy as I am,you can't expect to enjoy any film.
Anyway,even if you don't enjoy the acting,the special effects
are terrific. For me this was a truly memorable film that I
would recommend to anyone.

Summary: Stinker among the stars
Review: I got this bundled with the Golden Voyage and the 7th Voyage and this was most difinitely the stinker in the bunch. There is no accounting for taste, but even though I love the other two in the campy Sinbad series, this flick deserves to be blown off.

Summary: It is okay
Review: I really think this is Ray Harryhausen's worst. The story is okay. It is nothing new. It had a boring Sinbad. I hated how thaT ACTOR ACTED. The film was okay. the effects were nothing new. The beginning is my favorite, A giant seal appears in the beginning. If it did not have a good beginning, I would of rated it 1 star

Summary: Fantasy Film That Hasn't Gotten Its "REWARDS!"
Review: Just wanted to add that I agree with "tall_blond_handsome's" review completely. Harryhausen never made a lifeless film. He did more with stop-motion than any computer graphic artist has done.
