Jack the Giant Killer Ratings & Reviews
- Max AlexanderNovember 15, 2025Must watch . A great classic
- tonylisDecember 20, 2024It's not perfect but I always liked it . If you're a lover of 'The Seventh Voyage Of Sinbad' you will know what to expect. Kerwin Matthews makes a fine Hero and Torin Thatcher is excellent an Pendragon, the very evil sorcerer. Fun for the whole family. And they don't make too many of them anymore. Stop Motion is better than overblown Computer generated effects. I think anyway, there's something lovable about them.
