No laughs at all. Various critics have made a big deal of how while "ordinary" comics use the "laugh at this idiot" theme, Chaplin's work is supposed to be so much deeper, more human, etc. because we've been laughing at somebody for whom we should have been crying; Chaplin's character doesn't even come across as a very nice fellow in this one, which makes it even worse than Chaplin's stuff usually is

Has a couple of good gags, including the tar bit, but nothing groundbreaking.

The bookended car scenes are the best part of this film as Charlie otherwise comes across looking like a boorish and uncaring individual. However, the early scene of starting the car has him running around foolishly trying to fix it, and then later, as the car sticks in tar, Charlie again has some nice gags. However, the longer middle section on the boat really has little to recommend in it. Just not funny.
