The greatest movie ever made..!

Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
I was initially, in the beginning parts of the movie, going to rate lower, but found the acting, and humorous (and intelligent at times) dialogue engaging. So, even though the storyline is predictable, i.e. wealthy inheritance playboy son who chases women, parties, drinks and basically is a goofball funster has an interaction with a poor divorced mom coming aboard his yacht to clean up after a party. All of which plays out to his becoming a better person. Mom & daughters benefit too. Eerily, Anna Farris reminded me of Goldie Hawn in appearance and mannerisms who, perhaps not coincidentally, appeared in the 1987 version of "Overboard", but w/the lead roles reversed.
Yeah the 80's one was good but so is this one. Mostly not laugh out loud funny but is a comedic, fun loving leisure movie. A lot of people on here always have bad things to say about every movie cause they are stupid people who don't know how to turn their brains off and enjoy something light-hearted, movies like this are refreshing to me
I always hate re-makes, especially if I've seen and enjoyed the original. Derbez's character at the beginning didn't do anything to change my mind; he really did play the perfect ar**hole - and Faris hasn't exactly been known for picking epic roles.Once the scene was set and the plot picked up its pace though, I was very pleasantly surprised. The characters were believable, the "peanut gallery" of supporting cast were fantastic and well-suited to the characters they portrayed, and it just flowed beautifully.Truly a "must watch" if you have a family - or if you're just a big softie at heart.
The thing that made the original work was Kurt and Goldie had chemistry, both on screen and off. There is absolutely none of that here. Amd I wish there was because I enjoy the original. This film drags along depending upon slapstick jokes and gross out humour. I didn't laugh one single time throughout this entire film. The people leaving positive reviews must've watched something different or be studio plants...
