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

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 7, 2021

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

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 3, 2021

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.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 30, 2020

Trying too desperately to be funny has exerted the opposite desired effect; the finished product is dull as dishwater.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 19, 2020

Save the original and let Overboard '18 sink to the depths where it belongs

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 1, 2019

They took out all the funny and replaced it with sincerity which didn't work.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Feb 26, 2019

A grey, dull experience, with Faris's talents wasted and restricted to raised eyebrows and chin squeezes.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 12, 2019

A perfectly passable example of what I call 'cotton candy' entertainment. It's light, fluffy, and makes you feel good until you get the inevitable too-sweet tummy ache later.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Dec 21, 2018

Unfortunately, this Faris-Derbez union feels labored and detached while bringing absolutely no intrigue, impishness, insight or naughtiness to the conventional realm of working class warfare between the haves and have-nots.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 4, 2018

The charisma of our two leads helps elevate this gender-reversal redo of the Goldie Hawn/Kurt Russell "classic." It left a pretty big grin on my face, that's for sure.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 4, 2018

Please be safe and avoid jumping into these dark and depressing waters.

| Original Score: F | Oct 10, 2018

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.

| Aug 28, 2018

A generic remake that is entertaining at best, but tediously bland nonetheless.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 25, 2018

However, surprisingly, when it seems that you are doomed to an insufferable comedy with tone and plot of moral fable, it improves. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Jul 27, 2018

Full of paradoxes, with no ideas. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jul 27, 2018

Listen, I wasn't aware of any online petitions demanding a remake Overboard.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 26, 2018

Overboard got me to invest in its central pairing, and benefits from a Latin flavour that goes beyond Derbez, but the overall experience is ultimately pretty forgettable.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 12, 2018

There's also something faintly depressing about a film - even a romantic comedy - that pays generous lip service to the idea that there is dignity in hard work and poverty before coming to the enthusiastic conclusion that it's much better being rich.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 27, 2018

Playing the straight woman, Faris never gets to showcase her comic talents: she would have been wiser to have jumped ship on this stale reboot a while back.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 26, 2018

The relationship prospects are about as seaworthy as the Titanic.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jun 25, 2018
