Overboard

A revival of the 1980s overboard, with a total cast gender swap, that does well to honor the old and bring in the new. The revival makes one glorious decision: pay homage to the original. If you pay attention you'll find Easter eggs referring back to the original, and if you're a big enough fan, you'll pick out when the dialogue mirrors it exactly. I found the revival to be worthy, the acting is pretty good, the plot sticks close to whats expected, and the characters well developed. I thoroughly enjoyed watching.

Was gonna skip it. All the standard 2 star reviews because it's a remake. But it's fun. Good way to pass the time. Haven't seen original forever but 80s movies generally don't date as well as you'd remember.so check it out.

I think a lot of the reviews are pretty harsh. I'll admit, this movie was not a top end high rated movie, but it was still an entertaining movie with a predictable outcome. I didn't hate this movie. You typical story with an antagonist and a protagonist. You shift from hating the antagonist to loving the antagonist... blah blah blah.... if you go into this movie with an open mind, you can enjoy what it provides. Anna Farris does a great job of portraying her typical personality. I've always been a fan of Eugenio Derbez, and think he did equally well carrying his role. Eva Longoria played a small role, but did very well as a supporting actress. If I was asked to watch or pass, I'd say watch.

This movie is nothing complicated. It's simple, light comedy and easy to digest.

You'll never laugh out loud watching this but you will definitely smile without you knowing it.

I personally prefer seeing sci-fi flicks and superhero movies and I think I ended up enjoying watching this than I care to admit.

Leonard is a spoiled playboy who everything, money, a lot of women and no respect for anyone. Kate has a hard life , works delivering pizzas, in a cleaning company and studies to be a nurse, if that is not enough she has 3 daughters to take care. After they first meat he treats her really bad , so when he goes overboard and finds himself with amnesia she and her boss friend make a plan to payback. Typical romance/comedy story , nothing new there , but the acting is good and even if it´s not my favorite type of movies I found myself having a nice time watching this movie, Faris and Longoria are very good here but Eugenio Derbez is the best, funny enough and makes the movie nice to watch. So yes, typical movie of romance, but good to watch and spend a nice 100 minutes.
