Customer Reviews of When Popeye Ruled the Seven Seas

almost unwatchable
The coloring is sub-par as is the sound. The addition of updated sound effects are horrible they are louder than the cartoon itself with added effects that shouldnt even be there. You can occasionally hear the original effects intermixed with the ones that were added. Popeye is worthy of a ... package with original content enough of these bargain basement throw aways

horrible sound
This DVD does NOT contain original and unedited versions of these cartoons. It has been said here before and I'll say it again... environmental sound effects (footsteps, typewriter noise, etc.) have been added to these cartoons. The new sounds are VERY loud and clearly from a source distinct from the voice acting. They are a huge distraction. Also, the opening credits for some of the cartoons have been edited. These Fleischer cartoons are masterpieces, and to have them mangled is a shame.

Some of the best cartoons ever made!!
Yea - the quality could be a lot better. But this is Popeye's best stuff. Especially the two-reelers.
This was the Fleischer brothers firing with both barrels - trying to convince the studio that a movie length cartoon was feasible.
The movie never quite worked out for them. But the cartoons are pure gold.
You can pick them up on the cheap now, or keep waiting till who knows when.
