Rating: Summary: A very funny movie Review: I have watched Captain Ron so many times and I still laugh. It is by far the funniest movie I have ever seen. My wife will not watch it any more so I just go to a different room to see it. Great, great, great movie. Thanks Kurt Russell.
Rating: Summary: Wise Up and Get This Out On DVD Now! Review: Definitely a loyal following for this film. When I look at the garbage that's out there on DVD while this one isn't it makes me question the wisdom of the filmdom execs. The most valuable movies on DVD are the ones you can watch over and over and this one fits that criteria. If you haven't seen it you must and must and must.
Rating: Summary: Queremos al Captain Ron en DVD Review: In Sapnish: A pesar de que pocos de los de mi familia no hablamos ingles, con los subtitulos en espanol, a mi familia nos encantó esta pelicula, en especial mi hijo mas pequeño. No la tenemos, pero la alquilamos varias veces y nos divertimos mucho el Capitan Ron, hasta que desaparecio, del stand de la tienda donde la alquilabamos. Si la sacan en DVD seria una maravilla, y estoy dispuesto, a comprarla inmeditamente.Same but in English: Even though most of my family memebers does not speak english, with the subtitles in spanish, my family liked it very much, particularly my smallest kid. We dont have it, but we rented it several times and had alot of fun with Captain Ron, until it desapeared fron the rental store stand. If it is released in DVD, it would be wonderfull, and I am ready to buy it inmediatelly.
Rating: Summary: "Captain Ron" - A cult classic Review: "Captain Ron" is a classic comedy that has cruisers falling off their bunks every time it is viewed. I last saw "Captain Ron" while on "Millennium Dragon" at anchor at Green Turtle Cay in the Abacos during Race Week. We spent the rest of the cruise using lines from the movie. "OK, boss" and "Not my boat, boss's boat" are used frequently. A must see for all boaters but flat landers will also enjoy the movie.
Rating: Summary: "Angeline's no Cretan, boss...she's a Puerto Rican!" Review: This movie is a lot of fun...an escapist comedy of the first order, with fine performances given by the whole cast. The fact that this is the 40th review submitted for what was originally a summer sleeper confirms that its theme still touches a great many landlubbers (and sailors) out there...I'll join the list of those calling for a DVD release as well as a soundtrack album. But what I can't understand is how in the hell anyone can make a movie about sailing in the Caribbean and NOT include at least ONE Jimmy Buffett song? Man, that's just WRONG.
Rating: Summary: PLEASE PUT CAPTAIN RON ON DVD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Review: OK, so it's not an Oscar winner but is still the quintessential "guy" movie. Captain Ron is what every hard working, suit wearing guy wants to be deep down. In this period of remarkable technology, I assumed that DVD would replace VHS much in the same way that CD's have replaced cassettes. I got rid of VHS and all my tapes (BIG MISTAKE) and started a new library. Now, not only are a few of my favorites not available, some new ones aren't coming out either (Phantom Menace). If you liked the old 80's comedies...YOU WILL LOVE THIS
Rating: Summary: Comedy Romp or Unauthorized Documentary? Review: Down in the Sausalito docks, there are charter boat captains who will swear that Captain Ron is based on this guy they knew in Lahaina or Key West or Newport or wherever. If you've scrubbed a junky boatdeck or heard a load of martime malarky from some "seasoned" salt, then you'll find something to love in Captain Ron. Caught it again from the middle last night on TV and noticed for the first time the great Spanish rock-n-roll version of "Who Put the Bomp" playing on the radio of the old Chevy Ron boosts in Cuba. So grab a blended rum drink and kick off the summer with a fine tale of men...and the sea.
Rating: Summary: A Drinking Flick Review: This is the movie that you have drink a cold one while watching. Kurt Russell is awesome as Cap. Ron. He has too many good lines to recall but the best is "Steps are important...I learned that in rehab." This isn't Masterpeice Theater, but who cares. It's a just a good time. This needs to be on DVD badly.
Rating: Summary: !The height of bad movies! Review: oh boy.. Captain Ron.. What can I say about Captain Ron.. I have one question for everyone.. has Kurt Russel ever made a good movie? if he has, this isn't one of them.. I mean Escape from new york/L.A we're bad.. but they were so bad that they was funny! but captain ron tries to be funny.. and that where it fails.. miserably. It's the story of a family that inherits a boat.. they go on a trip with a "wacky" guide (Russel) and crazy fun family high jinks ensew.. ugh.. that hurt.. This movie is soo freakin' bad.. Kurt Russel is a bad actor.. and that usually adds to the good of a movie, Example: Escape movies.. The only movie he was good in was The Thing.. Now another error they made was making Kurt Russel a wacky guy and Martin Short a serious character.. I mean common! whats wrong with that? I gotta go watch ghoulies or something, must cleanse (sp?) my brain..
Rating: Summary: WHAT A STRESS RELIEVER!!!! Review: This movie was great!!!! I laughed so hard at Kurt Russells character. He is such a versatile actor and is one of my very favorites. It is amazing that shortly before this movie he made Back Draft. I thought this comedy had a little everything. Great scenery and a great supporting cast. Loved it.
