Michael_Elliott Wimmin is a Myskery (1940) *** (out of 4)Olive is at home getting everything cleaned up and as soon as she finishes the last room she hears a loud bang. She rushes into the kitchen and sees that Popeye's four nephews have wrecked the place. From here it's a battle as the boys cause one issue after another.WIMMIN IS A MYSKERY is an extremely fast short in the series as it pretty much features action from the first sequence to the very last. If you're a fan of the series then there's no question that you'll enjoy what's on display here as you will find that wonderful animation that you expect and you'll also get some good laughs. Popeye doesn't show up until the very end but there's plenty of fun action without him.

ccthemovieman-1 I think I've seen this basic storyline in another Popeye cartoon, but I'm not sure. Maybe it's used in other cartoons, as well. It involves Popeye asking Olive Oyl to marry him and Olive deciding to sleep on it, promising to answer Popeye's proposal in the morning. In the meantime, she has a dream, rather a nightmare, and the dream makes her decide not to do it! Poor Popeye gets a rude awakening when, dressed in a tux and all, he arrives at Olive's door first thing in the morning.Olive had dreamed that she and Popeye not only were married but had four kids. The kids are a terror, which is what sours Olive on getting married.The best part of the kids' scenes were when they imitated their dad doing scat and when when downed some spinach to get back at their mom for a spanking. By the way, the young boys were named Pep Eye, Pup Eye, Pip Eye and Peep Eye. They were "a chip off the old blockhead," according to Mrs. Popeye.
