Review: I have always thought it was really funny. And everytime I watch it, it always feels the same! The ending id kinds cheesy but very sweet. The entire rest of the movie is hilarious! Gil Godwyn has got to be one of the best "villans" ever played/created! I definately recommend this movie!

Summary: Great Dvd!!!!
Review: I highly recommend using Amazon for the site to buy it from because from beginning to end is top notch service & shipment!
PLUS if you buy this & another DVD...you could qualify for free shipping & also if you buy from other sites...they tax you like Walmart.com...Amazon is about to be my only source for dvds...I do use Borders and Walmart.com but Amazon has slowly creeped up there to be my main source because they email you for future releases...even dvds not even available for pre-order yet!

Summary: Tim in NC
Review: I saw this movie while on vaction in New York. It was really brilliant to see. Everyone involved in the movie gave great performances. One of the best performances came from Brent Spiner as the cruise director from hell Gil Godwyn complete with English accent and everything. If you have only seen Spiner as Data in Star Trek then you are in for a nice surprise.
It is nice to see a movie though, that does not rely on big budget SFX. Nice to see actors acting for a change.

Summary: Eh.
Review: Jack Lemon is my favorite actor of all time. And, of course, he and Walter Mathow are the best.This movie has a great character performance by Brent Spiner (Lt. Cmdr. Data on Star Trek The Next Generation). He plays a flamboyant cruise director who drives the two men crazy! He's funny and his boss is Rue McClanihan steals the show with her arogance and pride. Diane Cannon has some very funny moments to. The bottom line is Walter is a con-man, and Lemon is a Widower that was dragged on this cruise and both get more than they expected. A cute and funny film.

Summary: A formulaic movie.
Review: Let's not fool ourselves, okay? We all know that this film was made because of the success of the "Grumpy Old Men" movies. Unlike those, however, this travesty has zero humor and very little heart. Gloria DeHaven is the sole shining light to be seen. It breaks my heart that she was finally given the chance to show off her skills to a new generation of moviegoers, only to end up in a piece of dreck such as this. There was a touching scene which featured her being stood up by someone she was falling in love with. Her fine performance was the only quality acting going on in "Out To Sea". Everyone else is just going through the motions.

Summary: Out To Sea is boatloads of hillarious FUN!
Review: QUESTION: What happens when Grumpy Old Men meet The Love Boat? ANSWER: You get, Out To Sea! They're at it again, Lemmon and Matthau, creating that one of a kind "odd couple chemistry" that made them such a famous comedic duo in the first place! This time,they are posing as "dance hosts" aboard a luxury cruise liner. There's a few problems, though. First of all, Charley, (played by Walter Matthau), is REALLY in search of a babe with a big bank account, and Herb, (played by Jack Lemmon), does NOT know how to dance! although there are moments of extreme silliness, all in all, I thought this movie was a riot; packed full of funny, laugh-out-loud moments! In addition,Brent Spiner is an absolute scream as the sadistic cruise director! There are many other "big" names aboard the ship, also, and they all come together on the high seas to create a very entertaining film! A "MUST" for all Matthau and Lemmon fans!

Summary: Entertaining movie
Review: So what if this movie is a rehash, what movie isn't a rehash of another. But what makes this film worth the while. Is the paring of Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon. While the story is simple, they go on a crusie and pretend to be dance hosts and fall in love. But it is matthau and lemmon make this film shine. Along with some great supproting performances Brent Spiner, Donald O'Connor,Rue Mchlanahan, Dyan Cannon and Elaine Stritch delievers some the of the best lines in this film. This is worth the buy.

Summary: Side Splitting Laughter, Supreme Entertainment
Review: This film is loads of fun and laughs for a wide audience, from middle school on up to adults of all ages. It begins at a race track where Walter Matthau is betting on horses ... he loses the first race. He stakes his money on a long shot and collects about $3,000.00. Then an Italian "loan shark" meets up with him and collects part of the $5,000 loan he gave Walter. Walter visits his pal, Jack Lemon, his brother-in-law, who is celebrating his wedding anniversary ... alone, while talking to a photo of his deceased wife. Walter goes to Jack's closet to borrow a suit and proposes how they can go on a Caribbean cruise ... without paying a dime.
Walter and Jack embark on a Caribbean cruise on the Holland America Ship, Westerdaam. They participatge in a "bon voyage" champagne party to meet some wealthy ladies ... Jack makes small talk with a lovely mature lady, the first who has caught his eye since his wife died. Meanwhile Walter eyes the wealthy ones ... Walter leads Jack to the upper class suites, where they plan to unpack that is ... until the cabin steward leads Dyan Cannon and her mother to the room. Both Walter Matthau and Jack Lemon go to their lower deck cabin. Later, they 'suit up' to become "dance hosts" which is how they earn their free cruise. They meet Brent Spiner, the ambitious Cruise Director, whose management style is 'total control' as he aims to influence Rue Mchalanahan (owner of the ship) to advance his career.
As luck would have it, Walter Matthau selects Rue as his dance partner, and shows her moves with his feet and hands like no other dance host on board ... the other dance hosts stare in awe and amazement, as the Cruise Director seithes with anger, while alter essentially paws his dance partner during dips and twirls. She is thrilled with the experience to the chagrin of the Cruise Director ... Walter manages to feign a foot injury, and gets into a card game with Wall Street businessmen. He wins a few hands of poker and receives an $18,000.00 check from the loser, impressing Dyan Cannon, who appears to be wealthy young woman but is a "gold digger" ... looking to find a "sugar daddy".
Afterwards, Walter separates Dyan away from the Wall Street mogul and he escorts her on a land tour in Mexico. The Cruise Director follows him, trying to prove he faked injury and thereby make him pay for the cruise, at double cost. The chase is on ... with marvelous scenes including a plane ride by the lady passengers, whom Walter and Jack are trying to win over. Needless to say, using clever ploys each man wins the lady of his dreams. Brent Spiner is tricked into "performing" in ways he never imagined, to influence Rue to select him for career advancement. Overall, this film is filled with unforgettable funny moments from beginning to end. There is superb acting by many well known male and female entertainers who engage in comedy routines and clever antics ... Most highly enjoyable. Erika Borsos (erikab93)
