Onion Pacific (1940)
*** (out of 4)
Popeye and Bluto are in a fierce train battle as each of them must try to reach the finish line first. Of course, this means Bluto will be cheating.
Fans of the Popeye animated shorts will enjoy this film for what it is even though it's certainly not a classic. There's plenty of fun action throughout including some really funny stuff dealing with the cheating that Bluto does throughout the film. The highlight happens when the two trains are about to go over a bridge that is only set to take on one. As you'd expect there's a lot of nice laughs throughout and as usual the animation is terrific.
