Le verdi bandiere di Allah (1963) User Reviews

Pirate movie with lots of action.

[larryanderson · 3/10 · 1 July 2017]

A minor entry into the "Swashbuckler" era. Many know actors of the time make the most of a predictable story. There is a B&W version available on DVD. Exteriors filmed in Yugoslavia. There must be multiple soundtracks as Mimmo Palmara's character has several names, depending which copy you are watching. Larry Anderson, Canada

Poor print problems.

And truly laughable dubbing. One of the actors sounds exactly like Bullwinkle the moose. Cliches abound too in this combination of stereotypical Arab action adventures and pirate movies dealing with the slave trade, mostly females, so there's hardly any real story and genuinely poor characterizations. It's hysterical too that the female characters have 60's hairstyles. Coming from something weird video, weird is right because no one seems to be seeking out the color print of this which would probably be an improvement looks wise but not far as any quality for the film in general. Linda Cristal, hardly a movie star, was the only name familiar to me. Anybody could see through the Caucasian actors in Arab robes pretending to be followers of Mohammed. Action sequences don't really add anything. Barely watchable at all other than to laugh at.
