Movie Reviews of The Long Ships
Movie Review: FINALLY: THE MARE OF STEEL ON DVD!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of my favourite fantasy film. I remember seeing it at a Saturday matinee in the early 60s. Wonderful stuff. One other reviewer put it succinctly: it's like a Ray Harryhausen movie minus the monsters. However, the golden bell (the mother of voices), Mare of Steel, and the overall mood of the film is worth the watch. I'm sure this must have been a right of passage for both George Lucas and Stephen Speilberg. Even Richard Whitmark's corney imitation of a norse adventurer is fascinating. Sidney Portier's portrayal of the moorish king also must have inspired Prince (you'll see what I mean). This film is worth the purchase. Buy some popcorn, sit back, sing along with the great theme song and enjoy a great yarn!!Movie Review: a whale of a sail
Summary: 5 Stars
If you like spartacus,troy,gladiators,ben hur,300,the seven voyages of sinbad or hercules whose strenth and courage demed him a mighty hero. Then you'll throughly enjoy this tale of action,intrigue,strenth,galentry,courage that would earn them glory as well as a overwhelming victory. That kind of overwhelming feeling that after watching it as a kid years later eagerly makes you want to see it again. I'm sure even roger iber would enjoy this epic tale. Enjoy this as well various other adventures as well various other products that make amazon.com the ideal place to shop for value as well as reasonable prices. I'd recommend amazon.com to anyone,I'm anxiously waiting to recieve my copy to share with my now own kids.Movie Review: The Long Ships

The Long Ships
This was one of my favourite Saturday afternoon at the movies adventure movie that I was adicted to as a kid. It is very easy to enjoying this DVD for its high spirited adventure the pure nostalgic factor without having to lament that it is basically a B movie - a pretty good B movie. Besides it is a great popcorn with the kids movie and will likely be just as well received by the grandkids in a few years. Based on the enjoyable story line, it would be nice if they remade this movie, the Vikings, and Alfred the Great to the modern LOTR type standard.
Movie Review: Story Time!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Long Ships has always reminded me of the old stories told when you were young (maybe because the plot is based on a story told for generations of a golden bell). Anyway, this is just pure entertainment - light and predictable, but with lots of adventure and tongue-in-cheek lines. One of the highlights and more memorable scenes is the Mare Of Steel - a wonderful execution device if you're a bit twisted. Just sit back, eat some junk food, and enjoy this one - the entire family can!Movie Review: the long ships
