What to Know

Critics Consensus

Overboard makes poor use of the ever-charming Anna Faris -- and chooses questionable source material -- to offer a remake that fails to clear the fairly low bar set by the original.

Mark Kermode Kermode & Mayo's Film Review Comedy is very binary. People are either laughing or their not... If you're in a room where a comedy is playing and nobody is laughing you can hear the lack of space. Aug 28, 2018 Full Review Wendy Ide Observer (UK) The relationship prospects are about as seaworthy as the Titanic. Rated: 1/5 Jun 25, 2018 Full Review Kevin Maher Times (UK) To make matters worse, the chemistry between Faris and Derbez is non-existent and makes you yearn, in a way you never thought possible, for the glory days of Hawn and Russell. Rated: 2/5 Jun 22, 2018 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy A toothless comedy, although the stars certainly do their best to lift the material. Rated: 2/4 Jun 7, 2021 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a thoroughly middle-of-the-road endeavor that's rarely, if ever, able to entirely justify its very existence. Rated: 2/4 Jun 3, 2021 Full Review Andrew Gaudion THN You'll find yourself cringing at some of the attempts at gags, with some moments really only evoking a pity laughs as the film moves towards its predictable finale. Rated: 2/5 Aug 30, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Bahad j The movie was a very exciting adventure from start to finish Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/17/24 Full Review angela g this is a great remake to another great 80s movie Eugenio derbez was really good in this movie and anna Faris was really good in this movie as well watch this movie its really good Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/02/24 Full Review Jeff M I suppose if you want to be optimistic, you can always say a bad remake will lead you to appreciate the original that much more! The first OVERBOARD won't be remembered as one of cinema's great comedies, but it was amiable, a lot of fun and had a wonderful rapport between Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. This needless remake, which often lifts dialogue word for word from the original, is pretty much dead in the water. The biggest problem by far is that Derbez and Faris have zero chemistry. And it doesn't help matters that he looks old enough to be her father. Derbez is downright horrible in the first act and gradually works up to adequate by the end. Faris starts out well but peters out by the end. And when these two share scenes together, well, I've seen nuns with more sexual chemistry. A slight change in the climax from the original movie is catastrophic and lessens what impact the end of the movie could have had. We wanted Kurt and Goldie to end up together in the first movie. Sadly, the same can't be said for Eugenio and Anna. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/04/24 Full Review Estuard F Para .i es igual o mejor que su versión clásica y me encanto Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/02/24 Full Review Steven L I never saw the original and this one was just okay. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/28/23 Full Review Cali C A film featuring A dog crapping on a copy of the original movie script would have been way more entertaining if it turned into a horror/thriller/comedy & the yacht was scuttled into a reef with no survivors. I'm laughing just thinking about it! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/01/24 Full Review Read all reviews
