Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas
- Rating:
- Director:
- Starring: Catherine Zeta-Jones
- Details: US / 91 mins / (G).
Derring-do animation-style, as Dreamworks take on the tale of the mythical pirate Sinbad (voiced by Brad Pitt). The story, naturally, is a welter of spells, goddesses and the occasional sea-voyage, but it's a thoroughly enjoyable one for all that. Pitt's Sinbad, meanwhile, is unusually ambiguous for the usual animation audience.
