Boat Trip must have been made for a "Will and Grace" audience that enjoys humor on gay/straight tension. Unfortunately Boat Trip would appeal to neither Grace nor Will; not even the homophobic guy down the hall would find solace in its empty jokes. The film is just plain unfunny. I thought I would get a good cheesy laugh from this film. Instead I feel sure in saying I wasted my time. There were no redeeming plot materials, almost no outrageous jokes, and nearly zero memorable moments.
The only highlight of the film is Will Ferrell as a travel agent. Ferrell's 5 minutes of screen time are incredible as he practically tops any of his SNL performances. Unfortunately, those 5 minutes are too few to redeem the film as a whole. I would suggest this film to no one, except for hardcore Will Ferrell fans. Take a peak at Will's scene early on, and then return this DVD or VHS back to the store and get on with your > life.
