Movie Reviews of Popeye
Movie Review: POPEYE ON DVD! ABOUT TIME!
Summary: 5 Stars
Ever since I started buying DVDs, the first one I wanted was Popeye. I had to wait nearly 4 yrs for this to happen but now it's finally here! It was a wonderful movie as a child to me who loved Popeye. The characters were great, the music was great and of course I have to say hats off to Altman great vision & Robin Williams superb performance as Popeye. The only disappointment to this classic DVD is that are no extras, behind the scenes, deleted scenes, outtakes or documentaries. Fans pray and if Mr. Altman if you happen to read this, PLEASE, PLEASE, make a special edition Popeye DVD or maybe a director's cut to this cult classic!Movie Review: Brilliant
Summary: 5 Stars
I watched this as a kid and now have children of my own. We watched it again last night. I must say that this film is brilliant. In the hype of contemporary special effects, over acted and over sung musicals, this film somehow captures the flavor of the cartoons, yet builds its own characters. I was hooked as a kid, and now my own kids are asking to watch it again. It is clean, morals are taught, well acted, music is on spot for the purpose. Very much a classic - Williams and Duvall are excellent. I have been watching movies for all my life - I very much enjoy them, but I have not been so pleased after a movie in years.Movie Review: I guess I must be stupid
Summary: 5 Stars
I guess I must be stupid. I really liked this movie, and continue to like it every time I see it. I never saw the cartoons in the movies, and never read the comic strip, so cannot compare them to this amusing, entertaining film. The actors are great for their parts, the scenery is chaotically funny, the songs are wonderful, and the feeling is sooooo light-hearted! And there ARE some really funny lines that I discover and re-discover every time I watch this!
I just do not understand what the critics are fussing about. Maybe because there is no gratuitous sex and the violence is slapstick.
Movie Review: Popeye
Summary: 5 Stars
AT LAST ON DVD.I WILL BE BRIEF:
This is for me the greatest Movie of all time.
Do not be affected by Gone-With-The Wind ivory tower critics.
Do not even be affected by Robin Williams' own shyness:
IF YOU GOT HERE, it means you want some Popeye.
If I-AM right, then this is the best you could hope for.
I would like to write hundreds of pages praising this movie.
I will suffice by saying that I am 57, my children range between 13 and 25: We have each seen this movie about 20 to 30 times and keep enjoying it more, each time we view it.
DO NOT HESITATE TO BUY IT.
Movie Review: see it again
Summary: 5 Stars
i may be crazy but when i saw this film it seemed that popeye was meant to be a representation of christ and the holy trilogy (an allegory?). think about it. he dances on the water. he opposes the overbearing tax collector. he is looking for his father. he saves sweetpea and the town of sweethaven. he has a pure heart. if you look for the imagery and the spiritual ideas you'll see that this is a truly beautiful and remarkable film. major kudos to altman and feiffer. if the film seemed disjointed and silly at first glance you probably missed the point. see it again.
