SINBAD: NIGHT AT HIGH NOON AND THE WONDER GATE * (Premiered in Japan 2016)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.1|5.0 Starsìììì 

Sinbad: Night at High Noon and the Wonder Gate—third installment of the Japanese produced Sinbad anime short film series—works as well as the first two movies to entertain the child audience. The animation works on the more peaceful level and is quite welcome due to its attention to detail and lovely coloration. While this anime does not POP!, the heart and good writing remove it from a run-of-the-mill watch. There is a certain quaintness that draws the audience into the story as if one needs to watch this movie.
