Comment/Synopsis

Douglas Fairbanks Jr and Maureen O'Hara star in this variation of the Sinbad story. Sinbad (Douglas Fairbanks Jr) goes in search of Alexander the Great's treasure with the beautiful Marureen O'Hara also after the treasure. Despite the obvious talents of the two leads, this is a very flat version of the story. There are lavish Technicolor sets and costumes, but it is let down by a very wordy script and a general lack of action and adventure.
