Kate is a single, working-class mother of three who's hired to clean a luxury yacht that belongs to Leonardo -- a selfish, spoiled and wealthy Mexican playboy. After unjustly firing Kate, Leonardo falls off the boat and wakes up with no memory of who he is. To get payback, Kate shows up at the hospital and convinces the confused amnesiac that they're married. As Leonardo tries to get used to manual labor and his new family, Kate starts to wonder how long she can keep fooling her fake husband.

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.

Observer (UK)

The relationship prospects are about as seaworthy as the Titanic.

Rated: 1/5

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

Film Frenzy

A toothless comedy, although the stars certainly do their best to lift the material.

Rated: 2/4

Reel Film Reviews

...a thoroughly middle-of-the-road endeavor that's rarely, if ever, able to entirely justify its very existence.

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.

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.

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!
