Charming and harmless, except for the gaping hole where its two leads' romantic attraction is meant to be.May 10, 2018
It's mildly entertaining while also masking criminal deceptions as romantic foreplay. Yet this remake has little of the real-life sizzle that Hawn and Russell added to the story.May 04, 2018
Let's be real. That premise is so jacked up it's insane that Hollywood would bank on a remake.May 07, 2018
A charming but forgettable reboot...As a movie, Overboard delivers. As Anna Faris's return to the multiplex, however, it can't help but disappoint.May 04, 2018
There is nothing worse than to sit through what purports to be a comedy and never have a reason to engage your laugh reflex.May 04, 2018
Suffice it to say, you'd be safer to leave this one floating without a life jacket and just renting the '87 one again.May 04, 2018
A wholly adequate spin on the dying romantic-comedy genre, and both Faris and Derbez come out looking like champs.May 04, 2018
Overboard demonstrates that not every idea deserves an encore. If the gender switch fostered some curiosity, the result is a comedy that -- even without amnesia -- would better be forgotten.May 11, 2018
In the end [Overboard] does not escape convention. [Full Review in Spanish]May 05, 2018
The 1987 'Overboard' was a mediocre movie with a charismatic actress that gave it some interest. This mediocre remake is slow, boringly predictable, and doesn't work without the magnetism that Goldie Hawn provided.May 05, 2018
Anna Faris and Mexico's biggest star Eugenio Derbez step into Goldie and Kurt's shoes - but they can't keep this gender-reversed reboot from sinking like stone.May 10, 2018
Director Rob Greenberg's silver screen debut is ambitious in representation but gets lost at sea in its attempt to revive an already questionable classic.
