| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas |
|---|
Brad Pitt lends his voice as Sinbad, the charismatic Legend of the Seas. Sinbad goes to the city of his childhood friend and plans to steal the sacred Book of Peace but decides against it. Eris steals the book herself
and frames him. He is accused and sentenced to death. Sinbad's friend, Proteus(Joseph Fiennes) steps in and offers himself as a replacement, having faith that Sinbad was telling the truth and is innocent. They set Sinbad free to go in search of the book, in trust that he will
return before Proteus is put to death. At first he wants to go on with his "retirement" plan, off to Fiji, but he finds out Proteus' fiance is on board his ship and she offers him a small fortune to find the Book. The fiance, Marina(Catherine Zeta-Jones) is a born sailor without a ship and fits right into the crew and the adventures they get into. Throughout the movie they battle sea monsters, giant fish, giant birds, sirens and for Sinbad, his own conscience.
