Actually Hawn plays a rich ***** who's on her luxury yacht with her equally "I'm rich" husband.  She winds up falling overboard and getting amnesia.  She's claimed by a handyman she hired to remodel her onboard closet and then refused to pay him for it.  He says she's his wife (and mother to his 4 kids) to get paid back for the job.

 

 

Is that the movie with Kurt Russell ? If so ,they appear to have good chemistry together.

Don't think so, but is "Overboard" w/Goldie Hawn?

 

That is right up there with "Captain Ron".

Yes.  They've been a couple since 1983.

Can anyone kindly rank the best Cruise movies.
I would like to watch the top 3.

Thought of another one:  Goliath Awaits.  Kinda creepy but it's on a ship.

Out To Sea - for zany comedy - Walter  Matthau and Jack Lemmon

 

Ship of Fools - for historic drama -  Simone Signoret and Oskar Werner (I suppose Vivian Leigh was female star - but was out-shone).

 

An Affair to Remember - for classic Hollywood gooey romance - Deborah Kerr and Cary Grant.

HaHa!!  Season 3 has a dramatic ending.

There is a Hallmark movie Love at Sea --filmed on a Royal ship.  Plot is formula HM romance but ship scenes are worthwhile if you are a RCI fan.

Many of the listed movies are ocean liner movies, not cruise movies.

I watched seasons one and  two in 7 days.I am going to start season three later.

I don’t know if you know this but the actor who plays Nicholas is fluent in English as is the actor who plays Pierre and the actress who plays Cassandra.

True but in the early days there were no such thing as cruises so now they are “lumped “ into a cruise category.

I googled the cast because several looked very familial and I wondered if I saw them in other films.

Definitely. We sailed NCL's  'The Norway" cruise ship. It was originally an Ocean Liner 'The France'.

So, in that case, my favorite movie about a ship on the water is: "The Legend of 1900".

Different folks, different strokes.  DW and I were to celebrate our 50th anniversary this spring aboard Adventure OTS.  It was cancelled due to Covid 19.  We have booked a 52nd anniversary cruise in 2022.  Our 2021 booking was also cancelled on Odyssey OTS.

My father came to the US by ship in 1913.There were activities such as shuffleboard.While I would not call it a cruise I sort of do.

So I suppose a movie shot on board Cunard’s QM2 would be characterized differently if the itinerary was a 12 day round trip to the Caribbean from New York or a 14 day back-to-back trans-Atlantic sailing New York to Southampton to New York.

 

Sounds like pettifoggery to me - shot on a ship should be sufficient.

The first Gidget is good I love Sandra Dee. The one without her are bad.

No. I love that show. I’m on season 3. Hope it’s not a spoiler, but I find it super ironic that this season is about a virus on a ship. Wonder if they came up with that storyline before the pandemic.

Omg, that movie came out when I was a little kid. I remember watching it on TV. It was a bit traumatizing when you’re like 7 years old. The image of the woman looking through the porthole underwater still haunts me. 😂

Hotel Transylvania 3 : Summer Vacation

Haha, my kids went to see that movie with my wife, and then they came home and said that I “HAD” to go see it, so I took them for their second time. It was good!

"The one without her"?   Which one was that -- the series was a slippery slope of B-movie descending down to somewhere south of Z:  Gidget Goes To Rome, Gidget Grows Up, Gidget Goes Hawaiian, Gidget Gets Married, Gidget's Summer something -- and at least one more.  It seemed that every year a new one came out with a new little perky newcomer embarrassing herslf.
