⭐ 8.0 / 10 · TMDB

FADE IN: The open ocean, 1974. Filming is delayed…again. The lead actors—theatre veteran Robert Shaw and young Hollywood hotshots Richard Dreyfuss and Roy Scheider—are crammed into a too-small boat, entirely at the mercy of foul weather and a faulty mechanical co-star. Alcohol flows, egos collide, and tempers flare on a chaotic voyage that just might lead to cinematic magic…if it doesn’t sink them all.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

A comedy that doesn't try to be smarter than it needs to be. The goal is to make you laugh and let go — and it delivers.

Great choice for decompression. Nothing revolutionary, but well-made and doesn't overstay its welcome.

For those who appreciate simple cinematic pleasures. No real age limits by spirit.

Director: Guy Masterson

Best Watched: Friends, couch, drinks. The film doesn't demand silence — laughing out loud is encouraged.
