Cuba Gooding Jr. still has the exuberant energy that won him an Academy Award for Jerry Maguire--though his subsequent career choices have not been so golden. Still, he's a charming fellow, and his charisma makes Boat Trip surprisingly inoffensive, despite its plot: After being dumped by his girlfriend, Jerry (Gooding) sinks into a depressive funk until his buddy Nick (Horatio Sanz) drags him to a singles cruise--not realizing they've been sent on a gay singles cruise by a vengeful travel agent. But Jerry meets Gabrielle (Roselyn Sanchez), a sexy dance instructor, and falls head over heels--but to maintain her trust, he has to pretend to be just another gay guy out for a little sea air. Though thick with gay stereotypes, Boat Trip actually has a modest gay-men-are-people-too theme that makes the movie innocuous fluff. Also featuring Vivica A. Fox, Roger Moore, Will Farrell, and Playboy playmate Victoria Silvstedt. --Bret Fetzer
Slapstick all the wayReviewed by G. Kirschner, 2009-08-10
No one in their right mind would read the back of this box and expect a masterpiece. But it is VERY funny. The gags may be a bit low-brow but it is good humored fun to watch provided your not homophobic or easily offended. If you don't buy it you really won't be missing out but if you do you should get a bunch of good laughs.

Invest your time in something elseReviewed by Michael L. Wiersma, 2008-07-25
This is a pathetic, boring, offensive movie with an excuse of a
"plot" which seems to hinge on topless models and rude jokes about
gay men.
I am embarrassed for Cuba Gooding, Jr., who tries to add some life
to this shell of a picture, but can't quite pull off the miracle it
would take to bring this corpse of a movie to life.
Cuba and his friend (an annoying leg-humper type) go on a cruise
and are sent on a gay cruise. Of course a helicopter full of lovely
ladies literally drops in, and it's all very stupid and boring and
tasteless.
I'd steer clear of this.
Guilty Fun & Victoria Silvstedt!Reviewed by Nutrition Man, 2007-12-17
Speaking stricly as a heterosexual male, Boat Trip has shameless,
"been there, done that" homosexual jokes, and crude humor that you
may laugh at out of shear embarassment.
There are also some crude scenes involving a "straight" man, with a
"long fellow" when he discovers a group of Scandanavian Goddesses
on board...lead by the drop-dead gorgeous Victoria Silvstedt...who
could make many "alternative men" straight (in more ways than
one)!
Take the movie for what it is - shameless, crude laughs...and enjoy
it.
