The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

There a lot of life left to the old man - Popeye's 99-year-old father known in full as "Poopdeck Pappy." Anyway, dear old dad is staying with his son and Popeye wants treats him like a little kid, making sure he gets to bed on time. There's one problem: Pappy wants to go out and have a good time, not go to bed.The whole cartoon revolves around the one-joke idea of the son trying to make sure dad stays in bed. Pappy's bed is a hammock directly over Popeye'e bed. The moment Popeye turns the light off, gets into bed and says "Goodnight, Pappy," the joke re-starts because the old geezer is gone is a flash.Popeye tries everything, which is pretty funny to watch. Also entertaining is Pappy's dancing with the hot young babes at the nightclub. All in all, the gags work, Pappy is a hoot and this is one of the better cartoons of the period.

When this show was on I watched it every time I could! I thought that the characters were really funny and all had great personalities. The animation in My opinion was crisp, clean, and really clear. Not to mention beautiful! Most of the characters in this show are hilarious like the Looney Tunes characters that we all love. in My opinion these characters are the funnies and talented ever seen. In fact, The things that goes on in this series' cartoons are in My opinion nuts which that is what makes them hilarious! There are so many to like and laugh at and the silly things they do! If you like the original Looney Tunes then I strongly recommend that you watch this show!

This is a funny little cartoon from the Fleischer Studios and I never knew that Popeye had a father before!! Well.......I mean, at least in his animated cartoons. This is the first cartoon that I have seen that had the Pappy character in it and he is hilarious in it. In fact, Pappy steals the cartoon from his more famous son, Popeye. Did Pappy get to be in any other cartoons?? I will have to search for them as I like him!! The cartoon is about Popeye trying to get his 99 year old father to go to bed and the old guy just ain't a-going!! Pappy out-tricks Popeye at every turn. I gotta tell ya, for a 99 year old man, Pappy sure does get around!! All the old guy wants to do is go out to a beer joint and have a dance or two with the gals. His first dance is funny, especially when he swings his partner at the end of the dance number. You gotta see it to believe it.

Before Famous Studios gradually reduced the Popeye series to a marshmallow-soft snoozer, the Fleisher brothers were still pumping adrenaline into it, and in some of the best entries, they abandoned the "Help, Popeye" rut in favor of focusing on some of the great Thimble Theater supporting characters. In this one, our hero is trying fruitlessly to keep his scrappy Pappy from going out on the town and picking fights. Solid entertainment. And we can only imagine how ornery Pappy will someday be when Popeye eventually decides to dump him in a nursing home!
