Pros and Cons of Films: Vol. 2 (130 movies items)"Pros: Robin Williams as Popeye The world building Shelly Duvall as Olive Oyl Paul L. Smith as Bluto Songs by Harry Nielsen Cons: The citizens of Sweethaven, are not exactly all that welcoming. It’s a place, that you don’t want to visit. It’s a mixed bag movie, fun and energetic at some points, dull and monotonous at others."
Random Moments, Random Films: Vol.1 (107 movies items)"Directed by: Robert Altman Cinematography: Giuseppe Rotunno "
Why It’s Rated
Tier Ranking: The Worst Films of 1980 - 1981 (35 movies items)"For critics, Altman's take on the iconic cartoon is messy and wildly uneven, but its robust humor and manic charm are hard. My thoughts: Robin Williams delivered a great performance, the songs were not bad, but overall it was too disjointed."
Movies I Saw In July 2021.
Films I've seen on celluloid in the digital era (511 movies items)"FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★½ NOTES: Provided by the UCLA Film & Television Archive through the Robert Altman Collection; this meant that the full 114-minute cut was screened and a UK audience got to learn some more about Pappy and actually hear Popeye curse - this cut was passed with an A (proto-PG) certificate but scrapped in favour of the 97-minute cut that became Disney’s default version and ended up certified U. Feels just about equal to seeing it back in the day; dirt and vertic"
My trips to the cinema 2021 (200 movies items)"SCREENING: 35mm, Robert Altman: American Outsider DATE: June 29th CINEMA: BFI LOCATION: Southbank"
The Big Movie Watch List of 2021 (276 movies items)"Popeye is a super-strong, spinach-scarfing sailor man who’s searching for his father. During a storm that wrecks his ship, Popeye washes ashore in the fishing village of Sweethaven and winds up rooming at the Oyl household, where he meets Olive. Before he can win her heart, he must first contend with Olive’s fiancé, Bluto. This is one of the first live-action movie adaptations of a cartoon and it isn't that good. As soon as the town of Sweetwater broke out into song about a minute into the"
