It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

The first rule of Going Overboard...You do NOT talk about Going Overboard. This is easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen. The acting is terrible. The swearing is excessive and not funny. The pacing is painfully slow. The girls aren't particularly stunning. I wanted to ignore the negative reviews. But they are certainly true. I watched about 15 minutes and then chaptered through. That was all I could take. Incinerate all copies you find.

Quite possibly the worse movie I have ever seen. My brother rented this about ten years ago and I still haven't forgiven him. How did it get made and after making this horrendous film, who thought it was a good idea to actually release it. I wish I had a picture of the face I was making as a sat through this entire film, so I could at least laugh at that memory. Why the hell was Blockbuster even renting it out! Every copy should be burned!

I'd rather die than ever watch this movie ever again. It gave me a migraine. I'll never laugh at anything Adam Sandler ever says again for the rest of my life. I couldn't even finish watching this atrocious movie because I literally felt ill. I am not kidding.Do not ever watch this movie under any circumstances. If you're looking for a "so bad it's good" movie, look somewhere else. There are no redeeming factors about it at all. This movie saps the energy from you, to the point where you can't even muster up the motivation to cringe. Do not watch it. I'm begging you.Although, if you do happen to locate a copy of the film (if you can even call it one. I'm pretty sure the only thing that ran through the camera to record this monstrosity was a roll of toilet paper), be sure to purchase it and get rid of it, so that no one will ever have to view it ever again.

As an avid Sandler fan, (qualification requires an IQ of 72), I thought this was bloody brilliant. Sandler's face on the box sorted it for me.2 minutes into the film I was riveted to my seat by the appearance of JAWS jumping through the air and catching an aeroplane. (Or was that Giant Octopus vs. Megashark?) I can't remember since they are both such incredible films.Sandler's comic genius comes alive and is yet again second to none, barring Michael Gambon (Dumbledore) - Love Ali G <3. Adam's friendly and warm tone of voice takes you away like ecstasy, you can feel the laughter bubble up from you testicles before it implodes inside your mouth in fits of laughter.I implore you to watch this film, it is as moving as Gladiator, as epic as Lord of the Rings and as horny as 50 Shades of Grey.
