Rating: Summary: The Worst Movie I Ever Wasted Time Watching Review: Fellow Adam Sandler Fans,I bought this DVD at Walmart for $5.88 thinking "Wow, an Adam Sandler Movie I haven't seen." Last night I watched this 90 minute piece of garbage and came away with the following conclusions: 1) Adam Sandler must have had very little talent before he came to Saturday Night Live if this movie is any indication of Sandler's real talent; 2) Adam Sandler really should pull all copies from distribution of this movie since this movie degrades any and all other works by Adam Sandler; 3) The producers of this movie must have been truly desparate for money to have released this piece of trash. Now about the movie. It claims to be a movie about a cruise ship waiter (Adam Sandler) wanting to be a stand-up comedian. He is jealous of the mediocre comedian whose audience is a bunch of so-so beauty peagent contestants. Needless to say that Adam Sandler displays zero talent in this movie. There are none of his Chanukah songs. There are none of singing Italian skits. He doesn't make a single funny joke and when he hits on the not-so-hot chicks in the movie his lines are blah. There are a few fantasy scenes where the women are decent looking (but get yourself a copy Maxim and you will be far better off). There is only one redeeming scene in this whole worthless movie. The house comedian locks himself in a bathroom (to barf) and pleads with God to open the locked door after having spent what appears many hours locked up in that tiny closet-size room. Upon the door magically openning, the comedian proclaims, "F&*^, I don't believe in God, I'm an athiest." There was an uneventful cameo appearance of Milton Berle and there are some quality actors and actresses in this movie with all their performances wasted. I was hoping that this movie would show the actual goings on of a cruise ship, but that also wasn't the case. None of the scenes give a hint of a operational ship on a cruise in the Caribbean. The ship actually looks like it was decommisioned in the 1960's with rust on the hull and it didn't even have a functional dining hall. To Adam's credit, he admits that the producer had this empty cruise ship available to make this movie - big deal! In conclusion, this is the worst waste of time I ever spent watching a movie.

Rating: Summary: Is this a "Film School" Project? -- Sandler Gets an "F" Review: I always considered myself a fan of Adam Sandler's work, especially his original comedy material. This film is a sad attempt at being funny, while desperately trying to make a statement. The "f" word is thrown around like it's in the top 5 of the Englsh vocabulary. A main character's hacking giggle becomes an annoying pain in your ears. The gratuitous T&A scenes, along with borderline X-rated making out become tiresome. The lack of a general storyline wrap up the verdict: This "high school film project" needs a major do-over. Until then the grade is a solid "F". Not even college students are thaaaat desperate for a cheezy laugh. Sandler has hit bottom with this one. Toss this bomb overboard and forget it!

Rating: Summary: Not what you'd expect from Adam Sandler AT ALL Review: I bought this movie thinking it would be funny considering Adam Sandler stars in it but it was a very low budget movie with HORRIBLE female acting and no nudity at all. I wouldnt say its the worst movie cuz it has its moments. I couldnt believe Adam hardley said one funny thing, alot of things he said I think were supposed to be funny but werent and whenever he tells a joke its a piece of s**t like "why did the chicken cross the road?". So I really wouldnt recomend this to anyone.
Rating: Summary: Two thumbs up! A classic. Cult classic that is. Review: I found this movie to be a future cult classic. I know that there was little or no money spent on the filming, but it gives it that Blair Witch feel. Keep an eye on crowd. There are many guests that keep popping up. I look for this film to be released at the theaters for its 25th or 50th anniversery. It is that good. Sure the production values were low, but you that can not stop a good story from drawing you in. It may be the work of the writters or the work of the very funny Adam Sandler. Who knows, this may end up being the movie of the Millinium.
Rating: Summary: One of the worst movies I have ever seen. Review: I like Sandler.
I couldn't even finish watching it. I purchased it, and actually took it out of the DVD player and broke it in half.
The general public should be able to sue the actors and distributors when stuff like this is foisted upon us.
Truly horrible, not funny, taped together. They must have spent fifteen bucks filming this abortion.
Rating: Summary: The plot was funny and the cast did a great job of drawing y Review: I really liked this move. The plot was funny and the cast did a great job of drawing you into the move. I was on the edge of my seat as the action picked up. I think they should have Overboard II. I would love to see it in the theaters. This was a light hearted romp filled with jokes and pranks. Any one who likes to have fun should check this one out!
Rating: Summary: Pretty good for a first movie Review: I thought this movie was funny in a silly and totally Adam Sandler kind of way. I think it is definitely worth the money for a true Sandler fan. :-)
Rating: Summary: Future Cult classic Review: If you like movies that are soo bad that they become good, this is the film for you. we are talking liquid Sky bad, but with a better story. The low production values and the 'playing for the camera' make the movie very campy and fun. I found myself laughing at the film because it was just over the top bad. Sandler does a decent job on the film, but the real star is the boat that they somehow managed to con their way onto. Even the DVD has fun little jokes, like starting each chapter with the exact same shot. if you are looking for Happy Gilmore laughs go elsewhere, if you want to see what will be a cult classic, this is the film.
