Plot: A pair of grumpy old men hit the high seas in this comedy. Small-time con man Charlie (Walter Matthau) fast-talks his considerably more straight-laced friend Herb (Jack Lemmon) into joining him for a luxury cruise on an ocean liner headed to the Bahamas. Charlie tells Herb that the trip is free and will be a good way to meet rich widows; both parts are true enough, but Herb doesn't know that Charlie has signed them on as dance hosts (hence the free tickets), and Herb isn't sure if he's ready for romance after the recent death of his wife. As the men struggle with the fact that Herb isn't much of a hoofer (and Charlie can't dance at all) under the strict tutelage of cruise director Godwyn (Brent Spiner), Charlie starts sweet-talking beautiful heiress Liz (Dyan Cannon), while Herb finds a soul mate in Vivian (Gloria DeHaven), who lost her husband not long ago. Out to Sea also stars Elaine Stritch, Hal Linden, Rue McClanahan, and Donald O'Connor, who pulled his dancing shoes out of mothballs for his role. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

It's not the Love Boat!

This is a great movie. It's always good seeing Jack Lemmon as Herb Sullivan and Walter Matthau as Charlie Gordon together and this one is full of laughs. Jack portrays a widower and his unique self depreciating style makes him very believable. Walter, just like his "Oscar Madison" character, is always conniving, trying to make money. It really is almost a spin-off of the "Odd Couple" as to how they both interact. Instead of the "Pigeon Sisters" this time we have Gloria DeHaven who was a perfect choice for Herb's romantic interest. Dyan Cannon looks like she's having a blast as she's torn between Charlie or Edward Mulhare as Cullen Carswell.

The music is great. "Commander Data", Brent Spiner, is a good choice for the "cruise die-wreck-tor, his pronunciation. Rue McClanahan plays the very concerned for the passengers owner of the ship.

There is a lot of good dancing too! Donald O'Connor and Elaine Stritch really tear up the ballroom floor. Hal Linden and Donald O'Connor also make a great team and always have some not so kind words to say about Gil.

Enjoy the show.

Not quite the quality of "Grumpy Old Men" and "Grumpier Old Men" this Lemmon/Matthau film is still worth seeing. Elaine Stritch, Rue McClanahan, Donald O'Connor, Dyan Cannon, Hal Linden and Edward Mulhare are all great in their supporting roles. Try it---I think you'll enjoy it!

Neil Simon + Lemmon + Matthau = Killer Comedy!
Added 10/2/2007

Neil Simon is a brilliant screenwriter, and Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon are the perfect team to bring it to life. In "The Odd Couple II" Oscar and Felix are reunited for a wedding after 17 years of silence. Unfortunately for them, everything goes wrong during their trip. While trying to get to their kids' wedding, they get arrested three times, attempt to hit on two younger women, and take a ride from an old man who dies a short way into the trip!

I have read all the complaints of juvenile humor and inappropriate dialogue, but in my opinion, this is still a funny movie, and a beautiful tale of friendship between two clashing personalities. And, as a history piece, this is worth watching because it was Matthau's and Lemmon's last film together.

If you liked the first "Odd Couple" movie and the TV series, you will enjoy this sequel.
