What to Know

Critics Consensus

Overboard makes poor use of the ever-charming Anna Faris -- and chooses questionable source material -- to offer a remake that fails to clear the fairly low bar set by the original.

Mark Kermode Kermode & Mayo's Film Review Comedy is very binary. People are either laughing or their not... If you're in a room where a comedy is playing and nobody is laughing you can hear the lack of space. Aug 28, 2018 Full Review Wendy Ide Observer (UK) The relationship prospects are about as seaworthy as the Titanic. Rated: 1/5 Jun 25, 2018 Full Review Kevin Maher Times (UK) To make matters worse, the chemistry between Faris and Derbez is non-existent and makes you yearn, in a way you never thought possible, for the glory days of Hawn and Russell. Rated: 2/5 Jun 22, 2018 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy A toothless comedy, although the stars certainly do their best to lift the material. Rated: 2/4 Jun 7, 2021 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a thoroughly middle-of-the-road endeavor that's rarely, if ever, able to entirely justify its very existence. Rated: 2/4 Jun 3, 2021 Full Review Andrew Gaudion THN You'll find yourself cringing at some of the attempts at gags, with some moments really only evoking a pity laughs as the film moves towards its predictable finale. Rated: 2/5 Aug 30, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Ed R Very unique plot with a blast of comedy and a great message! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/06/24 Full Review Aaron G I’m not sure why this movie received such bad reviews. This movie was great. Fun from start to finish, and funny! Yes, it’s a remake from the original. But if you’re able to detach yourself from the original, this movie stands on its own legs. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/03/24 Full Review Sean R 0 stars is not an option. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/25/24 Full Review Ernest H Full of cringe and a shotty knock-off of the original. They couldn't even come up with any original dialog...directly quoting the original movie. Don't waste your time! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/20/24 Full Review Bahad j The movie was a very exciting adventure from start to finish Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/17/24 Full Review angela g this is a great remake to another great 80s movie Eugenio derbez was really good in this movie and anna Faris was really good in this movie as well watch this movie its really good Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/02/24 Full Review Read all reviews
