How can anyone not love this film? I'm reading all the bad reviews of it and the only conclusion I can come to is that such people have some terrible mental disease and should probably seek professional help.
I haven't seen it since it first came out. My recollection is that it's a terrible film. However, a lot of the acting in it is nuts on - particularly Popeye and Olive Oyl. I grew up watching old black and white Popeye cartoons, and Williams totally captured the essence of the character. I don't recall what it was that was so bad - perhaps just a shitty script.
Me, right now I'm watching Chopped on Food Network.
I love the music in it. It's really the only musical I absolutely love. The music is just so goddamn funny.
