Memorable, crazy movie

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Sinbad must recover five magical stones to free the city of Basra from the evil spell cast by a wizard. His journey takes him to the isle of the Amazons where the queen tries to capture him, to a battle with ghost warriors on the isle of the dead, and ultimately to a battle with his own double.....You know your in good company when the Cannon group logo appears for a film, and much like every film released by them, good or bad, you know what you are going to get, thanks to the title, and knowing that the only actor in this film you have heard of is Ferrigno.Yes, the film is all kinds if bad, from the script, to the choreography, the awful acting and overacting of the cast, its a poor film.But it's never boring, not for one minute.When Sinbad escapes from a dungeon using deadly snakes as a rope, you give up all hope of watching a movie in the vein of the Harryhausen classics, and settle for men in very bad costumes.Ferrigno, buff as he is, has no screen presence whatsoever. His lines are delivered flatly, and he has the same look on his face throughout the whole movie. His little speech to the animatronic, or finger puppet reptiles, is the single most funniest part of the film.And I've not even mentioned the rock monster who tries to kill our hero by hugging him.So, now we know, and probably the studio also knew that Ferrigno is the cheap Schwarzeneggar, who's great idea was it to have him fight himself at the end? Even though I hadn't eaten all day, I felt stuffed at the end of this epic battle because of all the ham on screen.Jafar has to be seen to be believed, he is brilliant because he is so over the top, but its impossible to describe his part.All in all its a terrible film, but any aspiring filmmaker needs to see it, so you never make the same mistake..

My Take: Awful acting, awful writing, awful action. Awful everything! What can I say about "Sinbad and the Seven Seas"? Well lets review it shall we. Well, Sinbad is played by Lou Ferrigno. It started off on a wrong foot (and a low budget) from the start. Well I guess that's that. It's silly, boring and pointless. Need I say more? I couldn't even finish watching it. I only watched the first half, changed the channel, then watched the second half. And you know what? I should have quit on it from the start. What a waste. A compendium of stupidity, poor performances, loathsome dialog and silly situations.Well, I guess I made my point.Rating: 0 stars out of 5.

I have to say, this is quite possibly one of the greatest moving pictures of all time...well not quite. Being twenty years old, i was 4 when this movie came out and this was really my favorite movie. Seriously, i would watch it, rewind it, then watch it again. watching again just now, i don't know what the hell was wrong with me. There are so many things wrong with this movie i don't know where to begin ripping on it. the diologue is atrocious, along with the plot, characters, and pretty much everything else. But i guess I'd say watch this movie if you're looking for a serious laugh and have some time to kill, being under the influence really helps...trust me. One final thing to say: Be prepared to see Lou Farrigno flex his pecks about 5,000 times throughout this movie.

Just like The Archer: Fugitive from the Empire, the last time I saw this film is like 7 or 8 years ago. I didn't even remember seeing it, but when I spoke to my brother about The Archer last time, he said: ‘Yes that was a great B movie, just as Sinbad of the Seven Seas with Lou Ferrigno.' I was like: ‘WHAT FILM?' Then he told me all about the zombies and the scene when Sinbad squished one of the zombies hearts with his bare hands and I was like: ‘Was that the movie when he rips off an arm off one of the zombies?' He said ‘YEP' and I remembered. That film was really good. I mean I do not remember many films for such a long time without having seen them, after that. The only 4 films I can recollect pretty good are this one, The Archer, The Temple of Doom and Tarantula. The latter two because well, The Temple of Doom gave me nightmares and Tarantula scared the living crap out of me. Anyway I'm wandering off here. Great trash flick this one.8 out of 10
