Child Psykolojiky
Popeye and Poopdeck Pappy are trying to play poker, but Swee'Pea's crying keeps interrupting them. Pappy wants to smack the tot, but Popeye persuades him to try psychology instead. Popeye tells the story of how "George Washlincoln" chopped down the cherry tree. Inspired, Swee'Pea chops a hole in the floor, then tells the truth. Popeye rushes out to buy him a reward, leaving Pappy in charge, but Pappy believes in a rather dangerous style of parenting, introducing him to William Tell (from both ends of the gun). Pappy lies about it to Popeye.

Absolutely the worst movie.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Child Psykolojiky (1941) ** 1/2 (out of 4)Popeye and Poppy are playing poker but Swee'Pea's crying keeps interrupting them. Poppy wants to spank the young child but Popeye says there are better ways to fix it.This here isn't the greatest Popeye short but there are enough cute moments to make it worth sitting through. The one thing that really hampers the film is the fact that there aren't nearly enough laughs as there needs to be. With that said, the animation is wonderful just like you'd expect it to be and there were some clever moments with Poppy and his ideas of making the boy not a sissy. Of course, these tactics probably won't go over too well today but I'm sure Poppy would think people today are sissies too.
"You get a reward for telling the truth." That's the motto, the credo and the story of this Popeye cartoon, and that's the truth.Li'l Swee'Pea is crying and Popeye and his Pappy are nearby playing cards (with Pappy cheating). Both have a different view on how to handle the kidPopeye advocates using "child psykolojiky" while Pappy wants to belt the kid. Popeye goes to his (Dr. Spock, I presume) book and butchers the terminology as only Popeye can do....but we get the message. He also tells Popeye about the honesty of President George Washington and how that helped make his a respected and great man.The funny stuff happens after Popeye goes to the store to get a reward for Swee'Pea, who had just told the truth on something, like George Washington. With Popeye gone, Pappy tries to toughen the kid up......and succeeds in a humorous way, but not anything funny to the old man.Overall, not hilarious but fun to watch, especially the confrontations between the little tyke and Pappy, which are genuinely humorous.
