There's not much worth noting about this Disney attempt at maritime comedy.May 22, 2012
Director Eberhardt does nothing to elevate this from being anything other than a boring TV movie, and I'm sure if Kurt Russell wasn't in it, that's exactly where it would have premiered.May 20, 2003
The scenery is pretty but the movie never makes one wish to be in it.January 04, 2005
Forced Kurt Russell, Marty Short comedy.November 22, 2016
Russell puts in a worthy performance as the irrepressible Ron and Martin Short is typically neurotic as the father.June 24, 2006
Queasy ocean-going comedy, not helped by Kurt's Robert Newton impersonation.November 22, 2016
A bland, seagoing, feature-length sitcom which recycles the displaced-dad theme from the studio's recent hit What About Bob? to little effect.January 01, 2000
If we lived in a just universe, Captain Ron, a farce filmed in and around the Devil's Triangle, would simply have vanished into another dimension.November 22, 2016
Any movie that features a dramatic actor like Kurt Russell playing straight man to a goofball like Martin Short already is sailing on choppy waters.May 25, 2004
Kurt Russell is the only thing that makes this movie tolerable - and just barely at that.November 22, 2016
Captain Ron is a movie about trapped suburbanites who break out into romantic seas, but it never really leaves suburbia... Like the Cap'n himself, this movie guzzles up its dreams and ignores the busted engine.May 16, 2006
Eminently missable family entertainment.
