Popular Mexican actor Eugenio Derbez plays the spoiled rich guy and Anna Faris is the struggling mom of 3. When he falls off his luxury yacht and gets amnesia, she convinces him that he's the hard-working father and provider of her family. Derbez gives his character plenty of frenzied energy, but the situations and the script are never funny. Faris is comically useless. The Hispanic audience members seemed to enjoy the inside jokes (much of the dialogue is Spanish with subtitles), but the humor didn't translate. In addition, the sweet side of the story never gains much romantic steam. Might be smarter to rent the original. Expand

I rate this 3 Since the original 1987 version I give it a 6 which is good enough so this one maybe half as good as the old one for some reasons like the main one is that this was boring also you know what’s coming plus for that SpanishI rate this 3 Since the original 1987 version I give it a 6 which is good enough so this one maybe half as good as the old one for some reasons like the main one is that this was boring also you know what’s coming plus for that Spanish language I wasn't able to understand half of the movie so if you watched the original one just stick to it and don't watch this crap if you don't then also watch the 1987 version funnier and more enjoyable if you don't like watching classic old movies then don't watch either Expand

Si algo sabe hacer Derbez es hacer el idiota, actuar y sacarme una maldita sonrisa. Overboard recién se estreno en México y siendo sincero... No estoy de acuerdo con la critica.

Overboard recién se estreno en México y siendo sincero... No estoy de acuerdo con la critica. La película deja uno que otro cabo suelto, es una película de comedia y obviamente no es de 10 pero si algo hay celebran o amar y es la limpia actuación de cada uno de sus actores, la limpia y agradable comedia y lo agradable que puede terminar de ser. La comedia involuntaria es algo que sobresale, si, hay comedia forzada pero en este caso llega a verse como algo invisible, las cámaras parecen tomar el lado perfecto, si, tampoco tienen una calidad asombrosa pero llega a ser agradable y lo que una película cómica y un tanto familiar necesita, me llegaría hasta arriesgar diciendo que podía tratarse de una clase de de cambio de dirección para las películas de mundos opuestos que se terminan amando a ser un "Secuestro a un multi-millonario Mexicano y hago que crea que es mi esposo" y hace salir una bella relación con uno que otro evento que logra enlazarse, sin duda Overboard es la mejor opción para disfrutar un fin de semana con tu familia.

Overboard is good. I don't understand why people don't like it... Overboard was entertaining which was my second best movie ever. Please don't dislike my review after this...

I really enjoyed this movie! It is lots of fun and even though I have never heard of Eugenio Derbez - and was totally disappointed that they hadn’t cast someone I really liked - he ended up growing on me. Switching the roles was brilliantI really enjoyed this movie! It is lots of fun and even though I have never heard of Eugenio Derbez - and was totally disappointed that they hadn’t cast someone I really liked - he ended up growing on me. Switching the roles was brilliant and Derbez played the part of a horrible rich boy so well. You just want to smack him. Ana Faris as the poor Mom/student was less effective, but still okay. The movie has some really funny moments and some good gags, i watched the original Overboard with goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell and found it to be much ess satisfying than this new updated version. If you just want to nave a good, fun time at the movies, this is a great choice. Expand

We walked out. This movie was incredibly boring and not a bit funny or entertaining. Horrible acting..no comedic timing..and such a waste of the hour we forced ourselves to stay in the theatre.

In Mexico if you disdain something produced by a fellow countryman you're pretty much an outcast but I cannot support this.
The only thing that can be rescued is Anna Faris work, and it's clear she really could be doing better things.

And Derbez once again makes it clear that he has always been a parody, not a true comedian.

The film, co-directed and co-written by Bob Fisher and Rob Greenberg, is a trite and near absurd story that spells “formula film” all the way and, for that reason, challenges the viewer’s logic and patience. I give the film a 2 and suggest that the original directed by the late Garry Marshall is really the one to see. If you forget the title,think "over-bored". Reply Reply All Forward Expand

I love Anna Faris. But this was just horribly unfunny, poorly cast and tried way too hard. The original was a fair to middling movie that got cute points because it was clear that its stars had chemistry together. This was not that. Add toI love Anna Faris. But this was just horribly unfunny, poorly cast and tried way too hard. The original was a fair to middling movie that got cute points because it was clear that its stars had chemistry together. This was not that. Add to this that (at least the copy I watched) did not feel the need to include subtitles for the frequent and extended Spanish language parts. For a film produced and released in the US, this seems a curious choice. Expand

This was a cute little romp.

The w and I enjoy watching her on "Mom" so we're biased in her favor. And yes, the plot is totally predictable but it's not a big budget action thriller, it's a quaint rom-com, so you have to like it for what it is. We did. Expand

"Overboard" was a decent movie, with good performances but a story that is not convincing although it is funny, the mixture of cultures from Mexico and the United States is usually controversial but also enjoyable at times.

Anna Faris showed a comical and kind side that I liked, but Eugenio Derbez has to refine his acting quality, to enter the world of Hollywood, because worn out he can not. Expand

Very generic movie. Anything with Ana Faris is never funny or all that great. But if you want to watch something 90ish and decent this would be it.

Another under valued movie which delivered on everything that it promised yet it was judged by everything else in a not legitimate way.Besides the comedy and the romantic value of the movie also delivers a very complex and beautiful lifeAnother under valued movie which delivered on everything that it promised yet it was judged by everything else in a not legitimate way.Besides the comedy and the romantic value of the movie also delivers a very complex and beautiful life lesson/message that most people overlook, because they don't expect it to find it in a comedy. The acting was good for the given genre, and the directing style was average with the cinematography and the way scenes where shot. But the script and the character development was much more in length than used to in comedies, which was a nice addition and the audience had the time to connect with the characters. The dialog was basic but the humor was really well combined with funny parody like events. They managed to insert fun in to even the most emotional scene in the movie which made the movie overall serious but not too much. Further more the core idea of the plot was really original and very well handled and executed to the extent where details where the key turn points in the story. Overall this was a very good movie for a comedy/romance film that had a very deep but beautiful message. Expand
