one of my absolute favorites!

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

If any cartoon shows what a nice, good guy Popeye is, it has to be this one. He has more bad luck in here and picked on by an almost-sadistic cop, but never complains.When things get their worst at the end, when he accidentally knocks over a flower pot on the policeman's head, our Sailor Man voluntarily places himself in jail! Popeye has the utmost respect for the law, even if he runs into a nasty cop.From parking in the wrong spot, to banging into people (the cop!) with his auto, to a bunch of other things - all the while trying to help demanding Olive Oyl clean her house - Popeye gets one "ticket" after another but takes all the abuse incredibly well. We can all learn from this guy.The artwork also is good in this cartoon, with some wonderful big-city drawings. It's not really that humorous cartoon, but it's interesting as we wonder what bad incident will happen next and how it will involve the cop. You really feel sorry for Popeye.

This is kind of in response to Mary-18's review regarding Olive Oyl's voice. At first it does seem kind of out of place how she's yelling at Popeye telling him what she wants done when he's standing right in front of her and without good cause (ie: she's not mad.. yet!). However, it always cracks me how how she yells at him in such an angry way after he drops all her dishes and then returns asking what else he can do. Her response is "You can put the trunk back on top of the closet!!" as she sweeps up the broken pieces of dishes. Makes me chuckle as I type this. Popeye's mumbling throughout the short is quite funny as well when he keeps getting tickets and as he's "helping" Olive with the cleaning.

From the cityscape true to the Segar vision, overhead shots, Popeye off his game to Olive evidently at that time of month and the jug-band musical accompaniment, this is a favorite cartoon of mine. The running gag of Popeye opening his jalopy door is great. It's simply proof that the series under the Fleischers wasn't just a one-note approach. The Fleischers were the masters of the b&w short.

This is not really a good cartoon. Popeye cartoons are notoriously poorly animated, but this seems even unusually cheaply done. Margie Hines is just plain irritating as the voice of Olive Oyl, although thankfully Mercer's rantings are still pretty funny. Overall, it feels sloppy and thrown-together. The only redeeming aspect of this cartoon is the clever scene of Popeye wrapping up the entire contents of a room into a rug viewed from directly above.
