A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
This movie in the theaters was a 3.8. Felt like why would you tempt to remake a classic??. Then when it came out on DVD it jumped to 5.4. The trailer look ok, so I was like I'll give it a shot. It was like a Hallmark movie from the Hallmark channel. Maybe it's for the ladies. It was ok to not good. It had its moments were it was cute.
Bringing in the Latin music and actors!! Remaking a classic with a Latin spice of music that makes you wanna get up and dance and laugh out loud at relatable parts!!!
I thought this was better than the original. Funny and I liked it, and I am hard to please.
Just because a film is old it does not mean it is a classic. The original Overboard got mixed reviews when it was released in 1987, only finding an audience on the video rental market.This remake is uninspired, clumsy, unfunny and boring. It certainly elevates the original version thanks to the casting of real life partners Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell.Kate (Anna Faris) is a hard working single mom with three daughters. She is studying for her nurse's exam and has several jobs, one being a cleaner on a yacht. Leo (Eugenio Derbez) is an aging Mexican playboy living in his superyacht and heir to a corporate empire. After an initial frosty exchange between Kate and Leo, he refuses to pay her for her work and throws Kate off his boat. Later that night a drunk Leo falls of his yacht and gets amnesia after a knock on his head.In hospital Leo's sister does not positively identify him and falsely tells her family that he is dead. Kate meanwhile gets payback for Leo's meanness and conspires to act as Leo's wife. Once he is in her home, she makes him do household duties and go out to work. Work is something Leo has never done. However over time Leo bonds with Kate and her kids.This is a an uninspired remake which just switches gender roles. There is no chemistry between Derbez and Faris and is just a crummy film.
