This movie is an eye sore.

It was the first movie I saw at the cinema. I haven't seen it since so I can't really comment on it's visual appeal but it held my attention for two hours which is something for a 6 year old.

I actually think the look of Sweethaven is one of the things they got about right, along with some of the casting (Shelley above all). It’s a complete folly, but a watchable one. Shame about the terrible, terrible songs.

To each their own. i loved it.

I wouldn't call it "ugly", but I will say it didn't mesh too well.

Everyone has an opinion. So do I. I loved it. Growing up on Popeye cartoons in the 50s, I felt that the film captured the look and feel of a cartoon, which I believe the director was going for. Watch a few of the old Popeye cartoons, and you will see what I mean. You may not agree with it, but you will see the similarities.

I thought it looked good but didn't like the movie. I love the early black and white cartoon in which Popeye is muttering clever commentary under his breath all the time. Once it turned color, it began its long bland decent. It turned boring. The only color Popeye I like is the Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves movie.

I think the movie did capture the essence of the Popeye cartoon. Sadly it was of the bland boring era of the cartoon.

I HATED IT AS A KID...REWATCHED IT AS AN ADULT AND LIKED IT A LOT...ITS A RIDICULOUS TIME CAPSULE...MY DAUGHTER RECENTLY DISCOVERED POPEYE CARTOONS AND WAS CURIOUS TO SEE THE LIVE ACTION...SHE IS 13 AND DIDNT KNOW WHO POPEYE WAS UNTIL A COUPLE WEEKS BEFORE SEEING THE FILM...SHE LOVED IT.

This movie was pure camp. It turned carton characters into live action. That's what made it so great.
