Cuba Gooding Jr. deserves to be stripped of his Oscar for this incompetent mess.

"A sexy, uninhibited romantic comedy about following your heart?no matter where it leads you." Here's "Boat Trip" instead. Again I scratch my head - "Gosford Park" gets 5.5, "Boat Trip" 7.4. I hate to be a snob, but come on, people! "A sexy, uninhibited romantic comedy about following your heart?no matter where it leads you." Here's "Boat Trip" instead. Again I scratch my head - "Gosford Park" gets 5.5, "Boat Trip" 7.4. I hate to be a snob, but come on, people! There's a whole world of wonders out there in cinema, and here you are gawping at Cuba Gooding Jr (find a good script, for God's sake, you're a talented boy) blank-eye his way through one of the very stupidest films of the decade, one which seems to have aspirations toward nonchalant homophobia, yet doesn't even have the cojones to be properly offensive. The only thing it has going for it is Roger Moore making the best of a bad situation - but even Sir Rog isn't enough to save a "sinking ship". Ho, and indeed, ho. I hope that's enough explanation for the pleasant-sounding Marcos R. - it's an affront to my dignity and my family. Look, just do something else instead, okay? Expand

Boat trip feels so much like a farrely brothers gross out, but you got to keep remembering that even those guys would craft a more well made sex comedy such as "there's something about Mary

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie is quite 'carry on' like, with the jokes being quite bawdy at times.

Cuba Gooding Jnr. I thought did quite well as a comic actor in this role, with his over exaggerated facial expressions adding to the sense of farce.

A group of Swedish models end up having to make an unscheduled stop on the cruise but the group are watched over by a manageress who's particularly strict about the girls not being oggled at or having any contact with straight people, then, as well as this, after an incident Jerry has he meets a lady who he's particularly attracted to but that isn't comfortable around straight men, so he has to try to keep up the impression that he's gay.

Its pretty predictable stuff really, the jokes aren't especially clever or witty but more crude and I suppose the term (I just made this up I think lol) sexual slapstick could be applied, though its not seriously graphic as this is a 15 rated movie, not an 18. Anyway if you know what the movies story is, then you can't complain too much I suppose as what would you expect of such a movie anyway? so yes its nothing particularly special or groundbreaking but there are some fairly funny moments, it is amusing to see them get out of their depth (so to speak) and end up in some daft situations.

I feel its also worth pointing out that Roger Moore appears in this movie, he's in a few scenes as one of the people on the cruise who takes a shines for Nick. I thought he was pretty funny in it, its almost worth watching it for those scenes alone, if you like this sort of movie then you should find those scenes quite funny.

Overall I was a little disappointed that this movie was as predictable as it was, really. However it does have a few amusing scenes and Cuba I felt gave a pretty good performance in his role (one of the last scenes on the cruise will make you see him in a different light, which you should find pretty funny, put it that way!). The movie does have a few amusing parts and I think that if you can catch it on TV (its been shown on FilmFour lately) and it sounds like something you'd enjoy, then it may be worth watching or taping and possibly rent it if you have an unlimited rental scheme but otherwise, I wouldn't go out of your way just to catch this, there are so many more interesting and funnier movies around really. This movie is one for Cuba Gooding and Roger Moore fans but perhaps not so much for others.
