Seriously, ...

... I do like some Altman movies. However, to my knowledge there are few directors who are more hit and miss. Judging solely from Popeye (i.e., also with "Bicentennial Man's" Robin Williams) and Pret-a-Porter (aka Ready to Wear) one might be inclined to wonder what "genius" had the inspiration to green-light Altman directing either project; in the case of the latter, how such a piece of (subjective) dog crap even got green-lighted in the first place! OTOH, after viewing brilliant films like M.A.S.H. or The Player one might have difficulty believing that the same man actually helmed clinkers like Popeye and Ready to Wear. In the final analysis I guess "quirky" probably describes Altman's style best, and it wouldn't surprise me at all if the famed director completely agreed with that assessment!
