Excellent third and final Sinbad movie from Ray Harryhausen
Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger was the third and final Sinbad movie with Ray Harryhausen creatures.In this one, a prince is turned into a stop-motion baboon and Sinbad and crew go on an expedition to Ademaspai to restore him back to human form. They face plenty of dangers on the way including several giant creatures, some of them prehistoric (more on those later). He is being followed by an evil witch with magic powers, Zenobia, along with her son and a stop-motion metal creature, Minoton. On one occasion, she turns herself into a seagull to spy on Sinbad and on return to her ship as she transforms back, she is left with a webbed foot as she has ran out of potion. She is defeated at the end in the form of a Sabre-toothed Tiger and the prince is restored back to human form.
Now to those creatures: we start with a trio of ghouls and other creatures include a giant wasp, a giant walrus, a Troglodite and the above mentioned Sabre-toothed tiger. The other two stop-motion creatures, Minoton and the baboon appear throughout the movie. All of them look impressive, thanks to Ray Harryhausen.
Sinbad is played well by the Duke’s son Patrick Wayne (The People That Time Forgot) and the rest of the cast includes Dr Who actor Patrick Troughton, Bond girl Jane Seymour (Live and Let Die), Taryn Power, Margaret Whiting as Zenobi and Nadim Sawalha.
Though not as good as the first Sinbad movie, The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad, I still enjoyed watching this one. Excellent.
Rating: 4 stars out of 5.
For children when wonder and Imagination were still in vogue!
(Minor Spoilers)Let’s be honest and a tad realistic about this film, shall we?
By TODAY’S standards, this is a “cheesy” kinda film compared to what technology we’ve got. And I think at the time of this release we had gotten “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” and “Star Wars” so our expectation levels were running higher for “special effects” and “whimsy” than this.
But I still can get entertainment out of this film.
How?
By remembering how old I was when I saw it and WHOM I was with when I saw it. My family.
I was a child. This film wasn’t in my all time top ten, but it was…fun. It was one of those movies local channels threw on Sunday afternoon before or after a televised ball game..or when a ball game was rained out. Come on, admit it..you remember!
And that’s the point. This film’s special effects were nice..not spectacular..not even up to Ray Harryhausen’s standards, but the Harryhausen mark was there which made it entertaining (Admit it, you LOVED the walrus scene!! How ’bout that Cyclops?!?! As a child this was all good! You remember!!).
For very young girls, this Sinbad was REALLY nice to look at back then. For the very young guys, so was Miss Jane Seymour and Miss Taryn Power. Then there was the story which was kinda fun, the adventure which was kinda whimsical and the happy ending where the bad guys got theirs’.
This was done at a time of assuming children would love this kinda stuff. Back then, more would have. Now, most children don’t even think “Spy Kids” can give them a buzz.
This movie is about childhood and remembering what it was like to have an imagination and watch a story unfold for nothing but the sheer enjoyment of it…the fun of eating “Good ‘n’ Plenty”, “Snowcaps”, “Malted Milk Balls” and Popcorn without thinking about calorie content to make this even more fun to watch…and the “eye candy” of Wayne, Seymour and Power help a so-so story that’s really better than a lot of stuff I’ve seen today that they charge ya $10 a ticket for! Parents may not have liked it as much as the children but that too is part of the fun!
Have a heart when watching this. Watch this as a “fun” romp….as remembering when families watched shows together (..or in my case my dad mumbling under his breath about how the game was due on and he had to sit through this ‘crap’ first!), the pre-teen tingles of watching a handsome Wayne, young Seymour and/or Power (…ya know…before having breast implants and weighing 95 pounds was mandatory in Hollywood for women to do this kind of film work?!?) and telling your parents you were REALLY interested in the story…really.
Maybe I’ve got a more “nostalgic” view about this film..its because I’m not looking for academy award winning material with this kind of film, but it does its job of…entertaining…and if you have children and want them to be children for a tad longer, this may be the film fare for them. Or just for you, if you want to curl up with some popcorn and remember “the good old movie fluff days” where special effects were done by hand and stop motion photography by the “grand-daddy” of the genre and a Sinbad movie where Sinbad actually looked like you might imagined him to look like back then and evil characters who were evil and got theirs….pretty much simplified.
Open your mind and when you have a moment…enjoy. Don’t take it seriously just sit back… watch…and HAVE FUN..with your children, as a family.
