    A nostalgic look at an old favorite.

    I loved comic books and comic strips as a kid. Pickings at the theaters back then for this kind of content were pretty slim. So when "Popeye" opened in 1980 I was super excited. Back then, I was just happy to see some of my favorite characters on the big screen. Watching this movie now, I think it's a sublime little piece of filmmaking that is much better than you might remember. Sweethaven is wonderfully rendered and there's so much going on with characters in the background it feels like a real place. The picture here is probably as good as we'll ever get for this film, but after being stuck watching grainy 4:3 for years on TV, this is a revelation by comparison. Special features are incredibly bare bones, but for less than 10 bucks, can't complain. Still a good value.

    Popeye starring Robin Williams and Shelley Duvall. papa is a classic back from 1980 and is a really good film even though the critics dubbed it a failure. I personally went to see it when it came out in the movies I think like six or seven times as a teenager and I loved it. Critics back down or nothing like the critics now it affected Robin Williams career before he actually became a top star.even if you're a fan of the old Popeye cartoon this is a really nice movie well-written the characters are funny the acting is is is really decent there's no special effects at all really but all around it's it's a really good movie.

    Growing up as a kid in the 90’s meant that I also saw a lot of 80’s films. Popeye was a film that was always on TV. Robin Williams and Shelley Duvall brought these classic cartoon characters to life. Although, certain aspects of the movie may not have aged well, seeing the film again brings me back to my childhood and how fun things were back then. To a time before tragedy would befall Robin and Shelley. A better time.

    A fun live action rendition of a cartoon classic. Movie can be a bit slow at times, but overall it is pretty good and Robin Williams did a great job as the titular Popeye. Great price for the Blu-Ray release as well.

    Great live action Popeye movie that still holds up today. Robin Williams and Shelley Duvall provide a great performance. Still looks great for a 1980's movie.

    Popeye is still one of my favorite movies from Robin Williams and he really nailed that role of the beloved anvil-armed sailor man and I want to wish one of my favorite live-action films a Happy 40th Anniversary.

    Popeye is one of the best musicals, imho, and one of the legendary Robin Williams best performances. The bluray enhances the vibrant colors of the characters, the town, and the ocean, and the music sounds great.
