Editorial Review: Amazon.com: In this last go-round for the Sinbad series, Patrick Wayne plays the legendary sailor. He is betrothed to Farah (Jayne Seymour) and seeks her hand in marriage, but her brother Kassim has been turned into a baboon by the evil Zenobia (Margaret Whiting). Before he can break Zenobia's spell, Sinbad must contend with the Minoton, a bronze statue brought back to life to do her bidding; a trio of flaming skeletons wielding swords; a 9-foot-tall troglodyte; and a saber-toothed tiger. Wayne is the film's weakest point, making a rather wooden Sinbad. Whiting's performance smells strongly of ham, but it's a brand of ham that fits the movie perfectly. As always, though, Harryhausen's work is outstanding. He instills more personality and character into his creatures in this outing, especially for Kassim and his relationship to his sister. The prolonged battle between the troglodyte and saber-toothed tiger is a violent one, generating some real suspense. At times it's difficult to remember that it's not live action with guidance from a director. Though this is an uneven effort for the Sinbad series, it still has its moments. --Jerry Renshaw Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Suspend everythingEspecially any inclination to find fault. If you're going to start complaining about anything at all in this movie, you're not going to get far. It is brilliant, and edge-of-your-seat exciting. The acting is fantastic, particularly by the minotaurathon, and the use of telepatheiaia is awesome. There is some absolutely riveting, shocking, positively indecent nudity. The plotting is highly logical, linear and makes total sense. You can't say it doesn't have twists. One of the villains has an eye-patch, ... Read More Rating:  - A Fun Adventure RompWhile it's definitely not the best Ray Harryhausen "Sinbad" adventure, it's sure does stand tall against a lot of its modern competition. Flip on any SciFi Channel or network television remake of any of the wonderful Sinbad adventures, and you'll find that "Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger" is a whole lot more fun. It features wonderful, over-the-top acting and camp from Margaret Whiting as the evil Zenobia and the always excellent Patrick Troughton (the classic "Doctor Who") as the wise and wiley Melanthius. ... Read More Rating: - Fun Sinbad Adventure with Patrick Wayne, Jane Seymour & Taryn PowerI don't get why so many people pan this 1977 Sinbad adventure film, the third in a trilogy featuring Ray Harryhausen's special effects creations. I've only seen the first in the trilogy, "The 7th Voyage of Sinbad" (1958), once about a decade ago, but I've seen "The Golden Voyage of Sinbad" (1974) numerous times. So, whereas I can't properly compare "Eye of the Tiger" with the first film, since I barely remember anything about it, I can certainly compare it to the latter; and -- let me tell ya -- even ... Read More Rating:  - Jane Seymour - NudeI like the way the movie flows - my favorite part was of course seeing Jane and the other lady partially nude. This had alot of great special effects -- the movie overall was pretty good. I have watched it more than twice -- more to see Jane nude than anything else... Smile Rating: - GREAT SPECIAL EFFECTS , BUT THE WEAKEST IN THE SINBAD TRILOGY!This was Ray Harryhausen's last Sinbad voyage. It is a shame that this didn't turn out the way Ray wanted it to. He never had a big budget for his effect and time was a big factor. Given the circumstances it is a wonderful effort! It is the weakest of the three Sinbad films, but it is still worth owning if your a fan. Ray's effects never get old to me. The DVD transfer is good,but they all deserve better.
