Konterr Brilliant and touching

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Michael_Elliott Cops Is Always Right (1938) *** (out of 4)Minor but entertaining Popeye short has him on his way to see Olive when he runs into a police officer who gives him a ticket. Throughout the rest of the film he keeps running into the same cop and getting more tickets.COPS IS ALWAYS RIGHT is a minor Popeye film that has a couple good moments but there's no question that it's far from a classic. The highlight of the film actually happens with the first encounter with the cop as Popeye annoys him even more by the strange way he gets into his car. This joke is repeated throughout the film but never works as well as that first time. There really aren't enough laughs to make this one more memorable but as usual the animation is great.

ccthemovieman-1 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.

josiah-8 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.

Mary-18 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.
