Product Description
Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, the big screen's original "odd couple," star in this riotously funny high-seas adventure. In search of lonely ladies with big bank accounts, happy-go-lucky Charlie (Matthau) cons his cranky, widower brother-in-law Herb (Lemmon) into joining him on an all-expenses-paid, luxury cruise. But their "deluxe accommodations" are deep in the bowels of the ship, and Charlie has signed them on as dance hosts! Under the tyranny of crooning cruise director Gil Godwyn (Brent Spiner), Charlie and Herb are in for rough weather as they romance the luscious Liz (Dyan Cannon) and the lovely Vivian (Gloria De Haven).

I wish the language could be a little cleaner.
But these two actors make such a wonderful pair!
I will probably watch it again.

One of the funniest movies I have seen in a long time. Of course, seeing Donald O'Connor and Gloria DeHaven after seeing them in many musicals was a rare treat. Jack Lemon was his usual, marvelous self. Anyone would love this movie.

Yep it is the grumpy duo (Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon) at it again only this time they are "Out to Sea."
Herb Sullivan (Lemmon) widower, is reminiscing his wedding anniversary. He seemed a little down. Therefore, his good friend Charlie (Matthau), yeah sure, invites him on a FREE cruse to cheer him up. Now I am not saying that Charlie has something up his sleeve but is cosigning up to Liz (Dyan Cannon); she appears to be a wealthy and attractive co-passenger. Soon Herb finds out what FREE really means.
The story is not as important as the one-liners and some good acting from quite a few veteran actors that can really put on a song and dance performance.

Great Movie!!! If you like good comedy then this is a great one to see. The grumpy old men are always great together. Supporting cast is great too.

Entertaining movie
So what if this movie is a rehash, what movie isn't a rehash of another. But what makes this film worth the while. Is the paring of Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon. Read more

A formulaic movie.
Let's not fool ourselves, okay? We all know that this film was made because of the success of the "Grumpy Old Men" movies. Read more

Eh.
Don't waste your time. Boring, painfully slow, and only mildly funny. I feel sorry for good actors like Lemmon and Matthau for having been associated with this. Read more

Average Movie - Great Cruise Director
I don't really want to repeat what other reviewers have already stated. For a Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon pairing, I thought this movie was somewhat average. Nothing great. Read more
