Not a musical, but wanted to see the progression of animation. IMDb Trivia says this is the last hand-drawn animation at Dreamworks, and is also what broke the bank there (losing $125M?).
The story would be suitable for a live-action film with special effects for the monsters and sea battles; it's not particularly child-oriented.
I recognized every utterance of 4 of the 5 principals, visualizing them overlaid on the animated images. (I don't know JF by sight or sound.)
They claim they're faithful to the 7 voyages of Sinbad stories, but they also blended in some Greek mythology.
I like it.
