Vincent S. A childhood favorite and the most perfect film creation of a comic book or cartoon series. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/29/25 Full Review Nim T I originally wanted to watch the film and why I gave this movie 2/5 stars is because of the cast of Robin Williams and Shelley Duvall. The story itself felt dragged and didn't really enhance much of Popeye's character except for that of a whiny baby. As someone who watched the Popeye cartoons, the reason why we would like the cartoons is because of the chemistry of Olive Oyl and Popeye, and the emphasis of the spinach. While there is chemistry between Duvall and Williams, the chemistry was not really seen until weakly at the very end. The other characters didn't bring the movie to a level where it becomes more watchable, but rather diminishes the ability to finish the film. Even though I finished it, I felt that there could have been more reference of the cartoons, so that Popeye's strength and his personality can be better presented. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/29/25 Full Review Stephen C Funny in 1 hour and 54 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Happy 45th anniversary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/16/25 Full Review Matthew J This movie easily falls into the so bad it's good category. It's beyond quirky. The actors give it their all and the production value is very good. The music numbers are exceptionally bad and mesmerizing at the same time. It's a must watch but maybe not a must re-watch. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/30/25 Full Review Ian S "Like a fever dream" is probably a good summary. No denying the brilliant performances from Williams and Duvall - their resemblance to the cartoon characters in appearance and voice is incredible. With a simple plot line the film staggers about abd despite holding my interest and having some funny moments, I wasn't really sure what was happening. I only gave it a 4th star as think it needs to be seen to be believed. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/25 Full Review Rami A Sure, it has its flaws, but it has excellent performances by Robin Williams and Shelley Duvall, which I felt were accurate to their cartoon counterparts. Their chemistry really brought the characters to life, making the film feel vibrant and authentic. Despite some shortcomings in the storyline and pacing, the humor and heart they infused into their roles made it a memorable experience. It's a unique take that taps into nostalgia while still managing to entertain a new generation. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/17/25 Full Review Read all reviews
