CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Merolliv I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Paul Magne Haakonsen You know what you are getting with this movie, so don't set your expectations up too high.This is one of those type of movies that were made with all the right intentions, but faltered under horrible CGI effects. If you enjoy fantasy and mythical adventures, then you might find some enjoyment in "Sinbad and the Minotaur", just prepare to ward your eyes away from some gut-wrenching abysmal CGI effects.Story-wise, then "Sinbad and the Minotaur" is straight forward and very easy to follow. It is a fast paced movie, and that worked well in favor of the movie. And the action sequences were actually quite alright as well.As for the acting, well, it was adequate but nothing outstanding or memorable. And it was a shame that they didn't have any famous actors or actresses to star in the movie in order to lift up the standards.There are far better fantasy movies out there, and "Sinbad and the Minotaur" wasn't memorable enough to stand out in the genre.
Claudio Carvalho Sinbad (Manu Bennett) steals the Chronicles of the King Minos from the camp of the evil sorcerer Al-Jibar (Steven Grives) with the location of the golden head of the Colossus of Rhodes. He also saves the slave Tara (Holly Brisley) and brings her to his ship. Sinbad sails with Tara and his crew to the Island of Minos and they meet a village of descents of Minos. They learn that the treasure is guarded by the Minotaur in a labyrinth and Sinbad gets rid of the beast. When they are celebrating, Al-Jibar arrives in the village with the flesh eater Seif (Jared Robinson) and his army, and demands the scroll for him. Out of the blue, the villagers turn into beasts and attack the outsiders. Who will survive?"Sinbad and the Minotaur" is a lame movie with a good story and awful acting and costumes. The non-charismatic Manu Bennett looks like Rambo or a marine with his hair cut and his acting is limited to grimaces. Lily Brown is histrionic in the role of the priestess Arianna. The villains Al-Jibar and Seif are sinister and Holly Brisley is very sexy. Despite the low-budget, the acting and costumes could be better. My vote is four.Title (Brazil): "Sinbad e o Minotauro" ("Sinbad and the Minotaur")
grannylove52 Compared to the Sinbad movies I watched when I was younger this one is totally boring. Not much of a plot and the acting and action parts were not very good. I think that trying to make more Sinbad movies is alright but they need to use better graphics and get better actors. The creatures were obviously fake and not very entertaining. The bad guy is such an obvious phony. If I could compare it to maybe the Mummy movies or even Pirates of the Caribbean or Indiana Jones. This movie does not even come close to being as good as them. The SFX in this movie cannot compare with some of the other adventure movies out on the market right now. It was a good try, but didn't even come close to the other movies. Slightly entertaining and helped to kill time, nothing else to do but watch it until I was ready to watch the other movie I will be watching later.
madammollyholly This movie is so horrible, it's hilarious! My friend and I watched this mainly because of Manu Bennett who plays Crixus in the show Spartacus. The acting was atrocious and slightly below the talent level of a group of third graders in their school play. But while it was utterly dreadful, it made my night! I was in hysterics throughout the whole entire movie. Words cannot describe how bad this movie is. You really have to see it to know what I'm talking about. If you want a good laugh, you should give this movie a go. It's about an hour and a half long, but I have a feeling that half of that was filler because they repeated themselves so often. It was either to give the movie some length or to recap what's been happening in case you weren't paying attention ten minutes ago. I don't think this constitutes as a spoiler, but I'll check the box in case; Sinbad has a catchphrase. "Details!"
