I thought the movie did justice to the original Segar comic strip. It's just a misunderstood movie. People who don't like it, just don't understand the original Popeye comics.
It's been a while, and so I put it on this morning for a while. I unironically enjoy this too, but I hate the movie's sound design. I honestly can't hear the songs that well - I can only catch some of the lyrics. When I got the soundtrack as a kid, I didn't even remember some of the songs.
Thanks for writing this! I’m a huge fan of Popeye and it always irks me to see people crap on it. I disagree about the music though. I love it so much
This movie is an absolute gem. Thank you for saying so.

Besides, everyone knows Altman's worst film is HealtH.
