1980 - POPEYE, the unmusical

UNFLIPPING BELIEVABLE.  Robert Altman directs, Robert Evans produces and apparently the coke, pot and booze flowed freely during the making of this film.  The result unsurprisingly is a horrible film watching experience.

 
Anyone who says this film is some sort of undiscovered or unappreciated classic has clearly not watched it lately.  Between the muttering and terrible Robert Williams and the horrible musical numbers this viewer can only wonder what the heads of the Paramount and Disney studios who financed this thing must have thought watching this nightmare during the dailies if they even watched the dailies.
 

Complete garbage, not even worthy of a discussion.


114 minutes, written by Jules Feiffer who should have really known better.
