Sometimes hard to find this one.

All time Kurt Russel classic.

Mt Rushmore of 1990s family vacation VHS rental movies.

Completely agree

Completely underrated

Just a perfect movie of this genre

Studios like Amazon and Netflix should concentrate on making 10 of these mid-level movies instead of 1 shitty blockbuster "comedy"

I absolutely love this movie. Not because it was great in any way, but because I absolutely love the idea of sailing around the Caribbean and just taking off to another island on a whim. If I had the funds to live that life, I would be gone tomorrow!

I was absolutely in love with the daughter. She was my first crush. I probably watched Captain Ron two dozen times in the early 90’s.

Yeah it was a great movie. As a young kid, I thought the daughter was nice. I wonder if she was ever in anything else?

She wasn't really in much else of note.

I remember laughing and rewinding the scene where the belt sander turns on and shoots across the roof knocking him in the water. Fun movie for sure.

I about lost it when Captain Ron said "If anything's gonna happen it's gonna happen out there". Or when he told the boy that "if you want a beer you gotta get it yourself".

Captain Ron is that movie that came on HBO every day that you watched when you were home sick from school. A classic.

I think this film is Kurt Russel's Opus.


quote:

leg feels a lot better now, boss. I always been a fast healer, you know. 'Course I believe in Jesus, so that helps.

Captain Ron: The boss is right. We should be okay. 'Cause I know we're near land.
Martin Harvey: Great, Cap. Great. Ya hear that? We're almost there. Explain to the kids how you know that, Captain Ron. Someone translate for General Armando.
Captain Ron: Alright, now stay with me: When we left, we had just enough fuel to make it to San Juan. And now... we are out of fuel!

When he’s sleeping with his blind eye open and the eye patch over his good eye it kills me every time.

Stay on the path! There’s guerillas in these woods!

Gorillas are native to equatorial Africa. There are absolutely no gorillas here.
