Only this movie and Punch Drunk Love, were the dumbest Adam Sandler movies I've ever seen. This movie is even funny. Adam Sandler looks more like an idiot then a star in this movie.
Adam Sandler's acting debut. He did not participate in writing or directing the script, and did not even come up with the idea for the movie. He just played the main character, an unfunny comedian who dreams of becoming funny one day (on a ship). Adam's acting was bad and inept... although it's not that striking, given the sheer awfulness of everything else in the movie. It's badly filmed, the writing is even worse... The movie is only valuable because Sandler was in it. **Going Overboard** tries its best to seem like a comedy, and this is probably its main weakness. The Room with Tommy Wiseau, which is similar in many aspects, became a cult movie because of how badly it was made, but The Room is a drama. The badness of the plot conflicts and the broken tension became the foundation for the audience's mocking pleasure. In **Going Overboard**, the dramatic elements are very rudimentary, and this makes it difficult to treat the movie with a sense of humor, but it is possible! I don't recommend this movie to anyone except scholars of Adam Sandler's work. For those who do decide to watch it, I advise you to try to accept the film's inconsistencies and laugh at them. This is the best that **Going Overboard** can do.
