🛥️ “You want a beer, you get your own beer.”

Life’s A Beach Month keeps cruising along this July, and this week, Henrique and David set sail for one of the most underrated summer comedies of the 90s—Captain Ron (1992)!

Set against the beautiful backdrop of Puerto Rico and the Caribbean, this laid-back adventure follows a suburban family thrown into chaos when they inherit a yacht and hire the eccentric, possibly unqualified, and always unpredictable Captain Ron to sail them to Miami.

Directed by Thom Eberhardt and starring Kurt Russell, Martin Short, and Mary Kay Place, this film is packed with classic one-liners, slapstick charm, and cable-TV nostalgia.
