Action Adventure Family Fantasy

7.4 / 10

Jason has been prophesied to take the throne of Thessaly. When he saves Pelias from drowning, but does not recognize him as the man who had earlier killed his father, Pelias tells Jason to travel to Colchis to find the Golden Fleece. Jason follows his advice and assembles a sailing crew of the finest men in Greece, including Hercules. They are under the protection of Hera, queen of the gods. Their voyage is replete with battles against harpies, a giant bronze Talos, a hydra, and an animated skeleton army, all brought to life by the special effects wizardry of Ray Harryhausen.

Nancy Kovack went on to marry Zubin Mehda the orchestra conductor. She also went into real estate and became rich. Todd Armstrong ended up killing himself. Sad. Jason and the Argonauts made him immortal regardless - @Thursday, December 27, 2018 3:26 AM

Bernard Herrmann certainly knew how to give these movies (Sinbad, Mysterious Island) a soul, apart from Ray Harryhausen. - @Thursday, December 14, 2017 2:05 AM
