This video is great for those who remember the Max Fleisher Popeye and the a.a.p. movie Popeye as well. The video and audio are refreshingly clear and the cartoons are true Popeye stuff, not the later watered down t.v. stuff by the same name.

I would have gone for the 5 stars if it were all Max Fleisher....but I guess some people have to have the color stuff.

This is a funny, classic cartoon that kids would not want to miss. The cartoon is produced by Liberty Home Video. The movie is probably for three, four and five year olds. This is the very first Popeye cartoon I ever saw. I found out about Popeye from my father.

Well, first of all, there are NOT eight black-and-white Fleischer Studio cartoons on here. There are three. I don't know if I got sent the wrong tape or what, it does say Popeye Cartoons Vol. 1 but the tape I got has four or five color cartoons (...) and 3 B&W Fleischer ones. Since the only reason I bought it was for the B&W Fleischer toons I was fairly disappointed, but at $10 a pop that comes to about $3.30 per quality cartoon, so what are you gonna do? These toons are rare, I'll take what I can get.

A year ago, I got this tape at at Amazon, because I believed a review that said the tape had 8 black and white cartoons, well, I got only a few cartoons. most of them I already have on Popeye's Greatest Hits. If you looking for classic 30's Popeye, this is not the tape for you. Look eleswhere for other tapes.
