Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas, an animated adventure from the DreamWorks studio, has little connection to the original fables from the Arabian Nights, but it's an entertaining romp nonetheless. Sinbad (voiced by the midwest vowels of Brad Pitt) gets commissioned by the wicked goddess Eris (Michelle Pfeiffer) to steal a magical book called the Book of Peace from the city of Syracuse--but the prince of Syracuse turns out to be a childhood friend of Sinbad's. So Eris steals the book herself and frames Sinbad, making the hero sail to the edge of the world to get it back, accompanied by Marina (Catherine Zeta-Jones), a woman he's secretly loved for years. The movie skillfully blends hand-drawn and computer images. The storyline is surprisingly well-constructed and actually has some thoughts about friendship and personal fiber, while providing all the swashbuckling, derring-do, and cliffhangers you could want. --Bret Fetzer Average Rating:
 Rating:  - One for DadThe legend of Fa Mulan was one of my favorite stories as a Chinese-American growing up in San Francisco some decades ago. I now live abroad and generally make it back to the Bay Area every summer. The year that "Mulan" was released, I didn't get to San Francisco until after its initial theatrical run. I did find it at a smaller neighborhood theater and my father immediately agreed to see it with me. To my great surprise, what we saw was a special version dubbed in Cantonese. My Chinese wasn't good ... Read More Rating: - Pretty goodThis is not one of Dreamworks better known animated movies, but it's worth seeing nonetheless. The graphics are quite good, and the story entertaining enough. The title is a misnomer-there's little of the authentic Sinbad from the Arabian Nights tales, rather the Sinbad character in the movie is closer to Odyesseus and Johnny Depp- but who cares, it's good fun. Rating:  - Why do people like this?I was not at all impressed by Dreamwork's take on Sinbad. This movie is a cheese and baloney sandwich *with the exception that a cheese and balony sandwich is somewhat filling* because it has has some of the cheesiest lines ["lets get wet!"]["Who's bad Sin-bad"] and full of baloney. Why would Marina choose Sinbad over Proteus anyway, oh thats right she wanted AN ADVENTURE ON THE HIGH SEAS! OH WHOOPIE! And oh boo hoo Proteus is so boring, Proteus who was willing to die for Sinbads crimes when Sinbad ...

I thought I would hate this movie. I was absolutely wrong. It's deep. It's emotional. It's entertaining for all ages, has beautiful art, animation and design, great music, and a profound message. Why can't more movies be like this? Rating: - A Poor RewriteNow as I recall, Sinbad was an Arabic sailor out of Basra and his religion Muslim. So you have to wonder why the whole shebang was rewritten and transported over to ancient Greece. Not that I'd accuse the studio of pandering to prejudice. Watch a real adventure: The Golden Voyage of Sinbad, with John Phillip Law and Tom Baker. It's imaginative, fun, and not afraid to show other parts of the world.
