Review of Popeye

Popeye (1980)
1/10
I know why it bombed!

It sucked! Right? Seriously, this is a nightmare of a picture. You have the horrible dubbed in voices that make Robin Williams' Popeye character sound like he was reading his lines over the phone. You have the endless musical numbers that lack anything remotely close to something you could tap your foot to. You have Shelly Duval repeating the same irritating lines, over and over and over and over. Part of me wanted to like this film as I am a huge fan of the cartoon and character. However, this film is just so boring and so tiring. I often wondered if it was the longest movie ever filmed, it seemed like it.
