One of the Finest Fantasy Films of the 1950's, certainly one of Harryhausen's Best
I was fortunate enough to see this when originally released in 1958. Ah, the Avenue Theater with ICE Air Conditioning (the reason many went to movies during summer afternoons). My older brother and I cashed in our allowances for doing dishes and cleaning the yards, etc., and we were able to see it twice due to a hold-over. Yes, it was that popular and word of mouth alone brought droves towards the end of its first run. We went to that second time and stood in line for at least one run of the film then scrambled for our seats, ready to again take a fantastic ride into one of the finest fantasy films ever created.Using his gift and patience for stop-motion animation (the ancestral origin of CGE today), Ray Harryhausen brought the monsters of a nefarious island to life with motion photography blended perfectly. Among my favorites of the plethora of gigantic creatures were those used to give a novel view of the mythical Cyclops with an also classic characterization of Karo, the fire-breathing dragon. More creature characters battled and overcome though men were lost in doing so.And all this excitement to regain possession of an Aladdin's lamp, yet more blending of mythology and "Arabian Nights" with good acting going a long way in carrying all of it off most believably. Yes, it will grab you and hold you to its unfolding, exciting completion which is really nicely done.So, if you are an admirer of excellent fantasy enwrapped in a tasteful blend of Greek, Mid-Eastern, Asian Mythology, you will fit right into this.So, get the popcorn ready, soft drinks set on the coasters, the coffee table pulled up close, turn down the lights, get the sound system warmed up, and - finally - push that start button. You're gonna love this movie.

Just wanted to state this is loaded with extras.. here is a review below of the blu ray version:
The Picture
Filmed in Technicolor and framed at 1.66:1, The 7th Voyage of Sinbad arrives on Blu-ray disc in a transfer that not only shows the effects of its 50-year-old age, but also exposes some of the inherent limitations of the Technicolor format. Let me first start by saying that Sony's AVC/MPEG-4 transfer does well at capturing the source without any visible compression artifacts or processing effects such as edge enhancement and it is as sharp as it can be given the source material. There are also good shadow details, even if the blacks aren't the deepest I have seen. The Technicolor process, however, particularly in 1958, was inherently grainy and often prone to some visible variations in color contrast and density. As such, this transfer is very grainy and does display some of those variations as well as some flickering throughout. One also has to remember that the Technicolor process was known for its hyper-realistic, saturated palette that often yielded something more surreal than realistic. Therefore, The 7th Voyage of Sinbad doesn't necessarily display natural flesh tones, but something more in line with what one would expect from a Technicolor production.
In fact, most of what we see today when Technicolor films are remastered are color palettes that are toned down to be more in line with what audiences today expect to see. I'm not certain Sinbad is even as hyper-saturated as it should be, but it looks well enough reproducing the film's colorful Middle Eastern garb and bright, sunny blue skies.
The Sound
Sony continues their trend of providing multiple language tracks on their Blu-ray releases with The 7th Voyage of Sinbad. In this case there are two lossless options in the form of a newly remixed English Dolby TrueHD 5.1 soundtrack and a French Dolcy TrueHD 5.1 dub as well as the original English mono soundtrack and a Thai Dolby Digital 5.1 dub. The new lossless English 5.1 mix offers a slightly more expansive soundfield that lets the score by Bernard Hermann breathe, exposing more of its intricate instrumentation. The dialogue is well balanced, if a bit harsh, and intelligible while the film's action sequences are lively with subtle use of the LFE to provide some much needed weight to the otherwise thin sound.
The original mono soundtrack is also rather good, if obviously less engulfing. It is well balanced with good dynamics, clear dialogue, and ample low frequencies. Sadly, instead of utilizing soley the center channel for a true monaural 1.0 configuration, Sony has provided the soundtrack in a Dolby 2.0 configuration. Still, it is good to have the original mix represented on this release.
The Extras
The 7th Voyage of Sinbad offers an abundance of exploratory supplemental materials that offer much insight into the work of both Ray Harryhausen and his longtime collaborator, composer Bernard Herrmann. Fans of film history, special effects and Harryhausen should be pleased by the wealth of informative extras available here.
The extras available on this release are:
Commentary with Ray Harryhausen, visual effects experts Phil Tippet and Randall William Cook, author Steven Smith, and Arnold Kunert -- The men offer very detailed information on the filmmaking and stop-motion animation process as the film goes by in a very conversational manner. Ray Harryhausen, in particular, offers up many informative anecdotes about the film's production. One interesting bit of trivia that can be gleaned form the audio commentary is the fact that Harryhausen had not actually met the film's young actor Richard Eyer (The Genie) until only a couple of years ago. Because of the scheduling, all of the location filming in Spain, where Harryhausen was, used a young Spanish double in his Eyer's place, while Eyer did all of his filming on the set in the US with director Nathan Juran.
Remembering The 7th Voyage of Sinbad (1.78:1/standard definition) -- Ray Harryhausen reminisces on the production of Sinbad and his inspiration for doing the film. In the process, he offers up much information on the special effects techniques he employed during the filming.
The Harryhausen Legacy (1.78:1/standard definition)-- John Landis and many visual effects artists speak of Harryhausen's influence on their work.
The Music of Bernard Herrmann (1.78:1/standard definition) -- Music historian Steve Smith offers up an historical account of the legendary composer's music and tells of how he and Ray Harryhausen first came to collaborate.
Photo Gallery -- A montage of stills from The 7th Voyage of Sinbad set to the film's score by Bernard Hermann.
"Sinbad May Have Been Bad, But He's Been Good to Me" Music Video -- A promotional 45rpm recording created for the 1958 holiday season release ad campaign for Sinbad. The song is played back to a montage of promotional posters.
A Look Behind the Voyage (4:3/standard definition) -- This is an archival television documentary on the career of Ray Harryhausen.
This is Dynamation (Special Effects) (4:3/standard definition) -- A classic 1958 promo highlighting the film's special effects.
Ray Harryhausen -- Interviewed by Director John Landis (4:3/standard definition) -- John Landis interviews Ray Harryhausen in what is am ore a friendly discussion in which Landis it is obvious that Landis holds Harryhausen in very high esteem. Harryhausen once again details much of the techniques he used in the filming of The 7th Voyage of Sinbad and many of his other films.

Saw this movie as a child and watching it again now as an adult brought back so many good memories. Basic story of evil vs good set in an Arabian night setting when monsters roamed the world and black magic prevailed to gain worldly power. After an evil magician kidnap's princess courageous men go on a heroic quest to save the princess from the evil villain. Claymation is superb and movie is very family friendly. Would also recommend Jason and the Argonauts which has a similar theme.

Ray's effects are top form again in this film. Did not like the casting of Hecules.but that's my opinion. As to the rest of the cast it was good. Tells the story in a believable way. A good example of a film doing it's job of entertaining the audience.

The transfer is really fantastic but the extra special surprise is two fold one, the incredible Bernard Herrmann score was recorded in multitrack and that original multitrack recording is stream out across the 5.1 sound field and it is a pleasure to be immersed in the many unforgettable music cues and themes!
Secondly the dialogue soundtrack and sound effects track also live on different tracks so although the main dialogue presents itself in the center channel, strange and fascinating sound effects can occur in other channels
It’s really cool
Bernard himself would be proud!

In today's time of lockdown, we all need a sense of adventure to escape the harshness of reality. Fortunately, this one movie is a perfect adventure the whole family can enjoy, that has even proven itself impervious the the test of time itself! The characters are all memorable, the adventure and action move along briskly so you'll never be bored for even a minute. Kerwin Matthews is a great Sinbad, with all the swagger, charm, flair, and swashbuckling appeal that would equal that of Errol Flynn. Kathryn Grant is a terrific Princess Parisa with beauty matched by her compassion, and usefulness. Thorin Thatcher is a deliciously evil diabolical sorcerer with all the trickery and sinisterness. Richard Eyer is a good kid genie with a nice batch of innocence to go along with his helpfulness. But the real stars are the monsters, created by SFX wizard Ray Harryhausen, Cyclops, 2-headed Roc, Skeleton, and my favorite in this one the Dragon. You feel sorry for it as it's being chained against the wall and then cheer for it as it battles one monster. Another draw is the Skeleton fight, so expertly choreographed you'll get into the action. Overall, this is a great family film that has held up for decades and worth every minute that you'll want to watch through it again and again!
Parental Advisory: Since this is a G-rated adventure the content isn't too bad but still worthy of mention. Language is the least of your worries as H*** is mentioned only once or twice. Sex is limited to a romance between Sinbad and Parisa, and Parisa's outfit reveals slight cleavage and midriff, but not too bad. The Violence is for the most part mild, ranging from brief sword duels to fisticuffs, and a few men fall to their deaths, though it can get a little intense with the monsters. A Cyclops crushes a few of Sinbad's men with a tree, but since it's viewed from afar it's not too graphic. The sorcerer kills one of Sinbad's men with a spear (impact isn't shown, though later you'll see the aftermath with some brief blood). Two monsters, a Dragon and a Cyclops engage in a brief fight, one gets bitten in the neck, Sinbad duels a skeleton which eventually falls and breaks apart.
