Popeye was the worst movie ever. My sister and I walked out of the movie when it first came out in the theater.

I saw it is now available on Pluto tv and I could not get past 20 minutes.

She was perfect for Olive Oyl as was Robin Williams for Popeye but the script, acting... just terrible.

Popeye was the worst movie ever.

It wasn't that bad. It had great casting - I mean, Williams, Duvall, and Ray Walston were perfect for their respective roles.

The problem was that it was a musical, when it should have been a straightforward action-adventure, with a backstory of Popeye and Bluto being in the Navy together.

There was supposed to be a reboot with Jeremy Renner as Popeye, but he almost died in that accident.
