Movie Reviews of Out to Sea
Movie Review: Out to Sea - dvd
Summary: 4 Stars
Very good, cute, funny movie. If you like Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon, you will enjoy this movie. I would recommend watching it.Movie Review: Amusing but not "The Odd Couple"
Summary: 3 Stars
Jack Lemmon and Walter Mathau work well together. They are amusing and seem to be able to sense how to react together without having to think about. That quality is present in "Out to Sea" but it is not enough to carry the weight of the entire film.
The premise is one of two elderly genltemen without wives. One is a batchelor and schemer and the other is a widower who is straight laced. Neither are what could be called wealthy. The schemer cons his friend (and former brother in law) into taking a cruise. The htich is that he has signed them up to work as professional dance partners to dance with the ladies. When this comes to light, Mr. Straight hits the ceiling and is ready to leave. Unfortunately the ship has already left and he is stuck working or paying a huge bill. The schemer has a reason for his deception, however. He is looking to get a wealthy wife. His friend has no such ambitions.
The plot is one with much potential for comedy. Indeed, there are plenty of moments for smiles and laughs. So too are there more tender moments that can tug at the heartstrings. The problem is that it just doesn't hold together was well as it could. Though each of the stars does a good job, more could have been done with the script.
"Out to Sea" is certainly worth the price of admission. The question is whether it is worthy of repeat performances.

This movie was rated as brand new, but it was OBVIOUSLY bootleg. Very dark, poor sound. Will e-mail Amazon. Lets see waht they do.
