Dotsthavesp I wanted to but couldn't!

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

TheLittleSongbird 'Popeye the Sailor' is a good debut for Popeye, but there have been better cartoons of his since.There is not much wrong with it. There is a finding its feet/style feel, and there is a preference to the voice actors who would take on the roles later. Popeye and Bluto were fine courtesy of William Costello and William Pennell, but Bonnie Poe's voice agreed (from personal opinion this is) doesn't really fit Olive Oyl, and it was strange hearing a deeper voice when so used to Mae Questel's pretty iconic interpretation.On the other hand, the animation is beautifully drawn, smooth and meticulously detailed, the black and white crisply shaded. The music is merry and energetic, though again am more familiar with the scoring of Winston Sharples later.It's a very entertaining cartoon and smartly written, with a lot of charm and energy. All three lead characters are engaging and their personalities established well even for so early on. Betty Boop makes a small but memorable appearance, that's both sexy and cute.All in all, a very good debut cartoon but not among my favourite Popeye cartoons. 8/10 Bethany Cox

Michael_Elliott Popeye the Sailor (1933) **** (out of 4) First film in the series of shorts was also the first I've seen of any of these early films. I watched some of the later ones when I was a kid and I wasn't sure what to expect out of these theatrical shorts but this first one was great. Popeye takes Olive Oyl to a fair when Bluto shows up to start trouble. There's a lot of great humor here and I really loved the animation style. The opening scene of Popeye singing his famous song is priceless as is the appearance by Betty Boop.Now available through Warner in a 4-disc box set.

Movie Nuttball When this show was on I watched it every time I could! I thought that the characters were really funny and all had great personalities. The animation in My opinion was crisp, clean, and really clear. Not to mention beautiful! Most of the characters in this show are hilarious like Looney Tunes characters that we all love. in My opinion these characters are the funnies and talented ever seen. In fact, The things that goes on in this series' cartoons are in My opinion nuts which that is what makes them hilarious! There are so many to like and laugh at and the silly things they do! If you like the original Looney Tunes then I strongly recommend that you watch this show!

tedg Spoilers herein.Popeye's first cartoon after he matured on the comics page. I believe the Fleischer cartoons may be the best of the era. Where other pioneers were working with characters abstracted especially for the screen, the Fleischers gave life to `real' characters. Betty Boop until 1934 - when regulatory prudes stripped her of her magic - was an amazing invention: sexy, somewhat dumb. But the important thing was the flapper persona.By 33, the Fleischers bought the rights to Popeye and this is the first appearance on screen. His dumb but endearing masculinity is a perfect match for Betty's similar femininity. She only appears in a cameo here, except the voice of Olive is very similar (and done by the same person). Betty was retired in 39, to be replaced by the unplucky, unsexy Olive.The world of film stereotypes would never be the same. The death of the Clara Bow type begins with this short.Ted's Evaluation -- 3 of 3: Worth watching.
