When I saw this movie for the first time it must have been already in the 80ties, long past my kid years. I wanted to see it long before that, because Guy Williams was it in as the hero, who also played Zorro/don Diego de la Vega in the 50ties Walt Disney television series and remained a favorite show of mine ever since. Finally, in the 80ties, I was able to track down a copy of Captain Sindbad on VHS. Contrarily to many other movies or television shows one sees in later years, with the same stars one adored in earlier years, this movie was not disappointing but rather still enchanting. I suppose, the actors were not that good, the story was maybe corny, the special effects were probably lame (to put it mildly) by today standards, but nevertheless, there was a certain charm, a certain magic one can hardly imagine nowadays. Guy Williams was as dashing as Sindbad as he was in the Zorro television series. As an adult, to watch and appreciate this, one have to keep some of the open-mindedness of a child. It's a perfect movie for all of those. Maybe not anymore the perfect movie for all of the family because the kids nowadays are so used to see elaborate special effects they will judge this as boring old stuff. I guess that's where old movies like this go, same as broken hearts in the Witney Houston song: into fond memories...
