Going Overboard - Adam Sandler - Any one have it?

Bal-Mart has this for $10, is it worth it, I know its not a steal, but if its a good movie to kick back with lots of liquid refreshment, then it might be worth it. So does anyone have it? Is it one of those movies that Sandler is in it for 10 seconds, but they put him on the cover to sell copies (like Jim Carrey in Rubberface?)

This movie is unbelievably awful. The most unfunny comedy I've ever seen in my life. I can think of no good reason to watch, let alone purchase this DVD. You'd be better off spending that $10 on additional liquid refreshments and skipping this turkey altogether.

Check out some of the reviews at Amazon. Most rip the movie to shreads, though strangely some say its great. All the negatives have steered me away from it so far, even though I'm a huge Sandler fan. Someday I hope to find it to rent it.

Sandler is the main star. I recall he's in almost every scene. But just rent it, for the love of god.

I just had to chime in here. Yes, this movie is extremely terrible. My brother rented it awhile ago, we watched the entire thing, and I don't think I've ever forgiven him.

Sounds like you guys just saved me $10, thanks! I'll have to put it towards another 30 pack!
