Trama e commenti: antoniogenna.wordpress.com: «Sinbad il marinaio (dall’aspetto identico a quello del classico nemico Bluto) rapisce Olivia e sfida Braccio di Ferro ad una serie di prove per dimostrare chi è il più grande marinaio del mondo».

Plot Summary, Synopsis, Review: IMDb - movies2.nytimes.com - archive.org - pdcomedy.com - answers.com - calmapro.com: «In 1936 Popeye starred in the first American theatrical cartoon that was twice as long as a regular animated film from the period. The cartoon was entitled Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor and was the first in the series of the three two-reel "Popeye" specials. Beside its magnificent use of the Stereoptical camera, the cartoon made use of the full spectrum of the Three-Color-Technicolor process with breathtaking results. This was, actually, the first time colour was used in a" Popeye" picture. The three Fleischer two-reelers were major attractions when they originally played alongside their live-action "accompaniments." Like Sindbad, the other two two-reel specials, Popeye the Sailor Meets Ali Baba's 40 Thieves (1937) and Aladdin and His Wonderful Lamp (1939), featured Popeye in the exotic settings of The Arabian Nights, internationally popular children's literature. The head animator on the first two colour specials was Willard Bowsky, while the arguably weakest entry in the series, Aladdin (which also lacked the Stereoptical effects), was animated by Dave Tendlar. Here are some amazing frame grabs of these three films, which have been in the public domain for years now». 

   

Nel 2003 il cartoon di Fleischer è stato ripresentato nel dvd The adventures of Sinbad starring Popeye (rottentomatoes.com).
