If you never watched Popeye it’s worth seeing at least once. It has a ton of heart. It’s no where near coming close to amazing or anything, but it gets a worse reputation that it deserves
It uses the comic strip for it’s world, which is different than what people are used to from only seeing the cartoon stuff. Every character is basically perfectly cast, and they all have their own unique things they do, is pretty interesting just to watch all the background characters interact.
It’s Robin Williams first movie, too. Seeing him as a scrubby mumbling ahole is fun. Although the mumbling did get tiring after awhile.

Didn’t know it was Robin Williams first movie. I haven’t seen it for decades. You make me want to watch it again!
Edit: I do remember Shelly Duvall as Olive Oyl, though. You’re right about the casting!
