This is a comedy that doesn't suffer from time or repeated viewings. It has all the trappings of a true classic. The cast, Goldie Hawn, Kurt Russell, Edward Hermann and Roddy McDowall all put in good performances. The 4 child actors all do very well, too. The story is a funny one and it keeps me laughing. All in all, a very funny movie. I own it and will throw it in the DVD player every once in a while.

Being a guy must make the fact that I like this film so much a guilty pleasure because it really is a chick-flick with capital C. I usually do not like to rate romantic comedies very high unless they have a different story and Overboard certainly has a different and (I think) original story. If you can get past the fact that the male lead is deceiving a woman with amnesia then you're going to love this movie. The acting is very, very good. I don't usually like Kurt Russel but I think he is near perfect in this role. Goldie Hawn is excellent and I must say that she was quite good looking in her younger days. I never really laughed out loud during the movie but I sat through the whole movie with and involuntary smile on my face because of the cute dialog and the slow change in the characters. The other cast members are also quite good. I found Edward Herrmannto be the most interesting character in the movie but he wasn't used enough. The emotions portrayed by the characters seem genuine which is a nice change from many other romantic comedies *cough* Pretty Woman *cough* and the on-screen chemistry between Russel and Hawn was undeniable.

All in all a very recommendable and highly enjoyable movie.

8/10

The cruel and wealthy owner of a yacht Joanna Stayton (Goldie Hawn) hires the poor carpenter Dean Proffitt (Kurt Russell) to remodel her closet and build a shoe rack. She does not like his work, does not pay him and throws Dean and his tools overboard. Dean loses his tools and goes home to meet his four problematic sons in a dirty simple house in the middle of nowhere. Meanwhile Joanna slips on the deck and falls overboard, and is found amnetic. Her husband Grant Stayton III (Edward Herrmann) goes to the hospital and pretends he does not know Joanna to travel alone. Dean decides to use Joanna to pay her debt working for him at home and convinces her doctor that she is his wife and mother of his sons and her name would be Annie. When Annie goes home with Dean, she fells living in a nightmare. But soon she improves the lives of Dean and his sons and they respect her. Meanwhile her mother presses Grant to talk to Joanna and he decides to return to the hospital. What will happen?

"Overboard" is another jewel from the 80´s, maybe the best decade to comedies and romantic comedies. Directed by Gary Marshall, this romantic comedy has Goldie Hawn stealing the movie and showing awesome chemistry with her partner Kurt Russell. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Um Salto para a Felicidade" ("A Jump to Hapiness")

I love this movie, it has a great cast (Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn), a great soundtrack, some light humour, and a really nice ending.

Definitely far better than the reboot that came out in 2018, and makes me feel happy every time I watch it.

Kurt Russell plays the widowed father of four boys who are as far from the Brady Bunch as you can get. He's a bit of a big kid himself who thinks just paying the bills and providing food and a roof is all that matters. In fact rich Hollywood heiress Goldie Hawn hires him to redo her shoe closet on her yacht while they are vacationing in the Pacific Northwest in the Columbia River. When it doesn't meet her most exacting standard she stiffs Russell on the $600.00 she was going to pay him. But when Goldie falls overboard in the middle of the night and acquires a case of amnesia, Kurt claims her as his bride and she goes off to become his bond servant.

Strange things do happen and eventually Goldie starts really thinking she belongs with him after some rough initiation. House work and she are strangers. It's helped however by the fact she has one drip of a husband in Edward Herrmann. And her work ethic was acquired from her mother Katherine Helmond who apparently understudied with the Helmsley family.

Kurt and Goldie and the 4 kid actors who play Kurt's kids in Overboard provide the best scenes in the film. Sad to say it gets so raunchy a G rating is impossible. Still the PG is there even if close to the wire.

Overboard is the perfect kind of vehicle for Kurt and Goldie and their fans will eat it up.

So will the rest of the movie going public.

Not rocket science, not thought provoking, not an immortal love story, just a fun romance and an entertaining way to spend a couple of hours.

The tale revolves around a rich snob, Joanna Stayton, who hires a carpenter, Dean Proffitt, to do some work on her yacht, then refuses to pay him. She gets her comeuppance when she falls overboard and Dean fishes her out of the sea. Since she suffers from amnesia, the scoundrel is able to convince her that she is his wife, Annie, and mother to his brood of four rowdy boys.

The leading actors are great in their roles, with Kurt Russell portraying the carpenter, Dean, and the always amusing Goldie Hawn as Joanna / Annie. It is really Goldie's ditsy, golden comedic talents that pull this ridiculous tale off. There is also a wealthy, indifferent husband, who barely misses her, but he is a minor character.

In addition to the constant laughs, mainly at Joanna / Annie's expense, both characters learn a few lessons. Of course Joanna learns beware the dangers of self absorption and affluent disregard, unrepentantly cheating a skilled worker in your employ. For Dean, it's lessons of the 'oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive' school...some "chemistry" he wasn't expecting and some emotions from his four young hooligans he hadn't predicted.

I'm ashamed to say I generally tune in to this mindless drivel whenever it happens to be on TV. A worthy example of its comedic genre, it just always seems perennially funny.

I can't see a movie like Overboard being made today. If they tried, people would decry it as misogynistic or abusive. And yet, this movie has a certain endearing and enduring charm. Goldie Hawn effortlessly switches her performance from narcissist to door mat to loving mother. It's impressive to watch. This movie is loud, obnoxious and ridiculous, but I like it.

Yeah, sure, you know how it's going to end. Yes, it has all been done before. But the heart of this snob turned sweetheart story is relayed with such charm and grace by Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russel, and supported by such a strong cast (Roddy McDowall among others), that it is enjoyable none-the-less.

Movie snobs, insisting on original plots (as if there really are any) might not love this flick. But anyone who can appreciate proven talent in a good-natured comedy will find these 2 hours time well spent. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes to smile.

I watched this movie for the first time when I was 10 and still watching it to this day. The cast is excellent and the storyline is silly but you just can't help yourself laughing at all of Goldie's screw-ups or Kurt's incompetent ways of parenting. The supporting cast is great, what more can I say??, if you ever see this in the video store, it's worth renting. GO OVERBOARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Overboard is an 80's comedy starring long time real life partners Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn. Hawn is a spoilt rich heiress who cheats carpenter Russell out of payment on a job but a freak accident causing her to suffer from amnesia allows Russell to turn the tables. The beginning third of Overboard is probably the weakest part of the film as both characters come across as unlikeable for different reasons. Hawn for her cruelty towards everyone around her and Russell for his cruelty in conning Hawn into thinking she was his wife. However as the film progresses and the relationship between the two blossoms the film develops real heart and when Hawn first recovers her memory there is real pathos in the scene and Russell is simply superb saying nothing but acting with his eyes and you can really see his heartbreak. Along the way Hawn and Russell provide many comedic moments and both are on top form. The children in the film are not overly annoying and are in fact crucial to the development of the plot. In summary Overboard is a film i have never seen until now, which is crazy really as i am a big fan of Kurt Russell and to a lesser extent Goldie Hawn. I had a good time with this film and enjoyed it more as it went along. The pacing is good and there are some funny moments. Overboard is a good all round solid film and one worth digging out if you have never seen it.

Overboard is the kind of a fun movie to watch anytime. I saw it the movie theater 14 years ago. Today, I still watch it on television or on the video tape. It is truly a comedic classic not to be disregarded at all. It is truly funny, entertaining, and enlightening. If haven't seen it, you must for a good time. Great cast of actors and characters, I miss Roddy McDowall. I wished that Roddy got knighthood while he was alive. Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn have been together what must be like an eternity in Hollywood or at least a few years. Edward Herrmann has a great supporting role as Joanna's husband and Katherine Helmond from "Who's the Boss?" plays Joanna's snobbish New Yorker mother. The story begins with rich Joanna wanting a closet for her shoes so she hires a local carpenter, Kurt Russell, who does not meet her criteria. She insults and mistreats him like an animal and refuses to pay him. When she falls overboard accidentally, she loses her memory. When Kurt's character finds out, he decides to bring her home and make her pay him back. The predictable event happens so watch and see and don't watch the butchered television version either.

So Goldie Hawn plays a rich jerk who doesn't pay Kurt Russell for doing a job for her. He could call the cops, but he doesn't, I'm not sure why, maybe he's in trouble for something himself.

Anyway Goldie Hawn's character gets into an accident and loses her memory and it's on the news... So of course Kurt Russell's character does the logical thing and gaslights her into becoming his idea of a "perfect housewife" even going as far as to lie to her that his four children are hers, and imply that she is an awful person for not feeling maternal over them. There's a bunch of humiliation and creepy sexual pressure but hey, it's ok, she's rich and a jerk, so she deserves it, and anyway Kurt Russell is kinda dreamy so it's not all bad!

How about no? Just no.

Anyway, the ending will shock no one. You can guess it right now, I bet.

There are some funny moments in there, I won't lie, but the plot is just way too grim. I know it's just meant to be a light-hearted comedy, and it was made over 30 years ago, but the moral is basically if someone treats you badly, treat them much worse. That kinda kills the light-hearted vibe for me.

a nice comedy. an example of "80 not great but seductive cinema. or, only,Goldie Hawne and Kurt Russell. in fact, a seductive version of The Prince and the Pauper with right cast, right story, amusing moments and energetic development and with useful moral lesson. it is so easy to criticize it than must see only. as a simple story, about simple people and the clash between different worlds. and this is all. just fun. nothing complicated or profound. only a young woman and her universes. and the bitter lesson about life. after its end remains only a not bad reflection about destiny, rich people and happy people. and the sensation to be viewer of a fairy tale. but this is the basic purpose of each film. so, a film. nice, smart and seductive.

Amusing comedy that reminds you of the kind of movies Doris Day and Rock Hudson used to make. Pure fluff, but thoroughly entertaining.

Goldie Hawn has fun playing a rich shrew who locks horns with sweaty carpenter Kurt Russell and tosses his tools off her yacht and into the ocean; later, after she's been diagnosed with amnesia, vengeful Kurt (and his gaggle of pre-teen sons) take Goldie in and convince her she's a wife and mother to the unruly brood. Slight comic premise doesn't make much logical sense (sure, the carpenter wants pay-back, but why would he invite a woman he hates into his home? She's still the same harpy as before, with or without her memory). The obvious rapport between real-life couple Hawn and Russell keeps the film going, but supporting players Roddy McDowall, Edward Herrmann and Katherine Helmond never get a truly funny line. Garry Marshall directs in his usual scrappy, frustrating fashion, but even his anything-for-a-laugh agenda can't overcome the mean-spirited undermining here (as well as a few sub-plots which go nowhere). The final moments are well done, however, and Hawn's energy is always engaging. **1/2 from ****

Kurt Russell plays a widowed father of four boys who are so far from the Bradie family. He himself a little big child and believes that the main thing is to pay bills, to provide yourself with food and roof over your head. In fact, the rich Hollywood heiress Goldie Hawn hires him so that he to redo the wardrobe for shoes on her yacht when they relax on the Pacific Northwest on the Columbia River. When he does not fit it the most stringent standards, she knocks out 600 dollars from Russell, who was going to pay him. But when Goldie falls overboard in the middle of the night and acquires Amnesia, Kurt announces it with his bride, and she becomes his banging maid.

There are strange things, and in the end Goldie begins to really think that it belongs to him, after some rude initiation. Work on the house and she is other people. However, she helps the fact that she has Edvard Herrmann's husband. And the labor ethics went to her from Mother Catherine Helmond, which, obviously, worked in the Helmsley family.

Kurt and Goldie and 4 actor children who play Kurt's children in "overboard" provide the best scenes in the film. Unfortunately, the film is so frank that the rating G is impossible. However, the PG rating is, even if it is on the verge.

The film "Overboard" is the perfect vehicle for Kurt and Goldi, and their fans will eat it with pleasure.

Also, like the rest of the movie actors.

Rich witch Joanna Stayton (Goldie Hawn) treats carpenter Dean Proffitt (Kurt Russell) like dirt when he does a job for her on her yacht. Soon after she is accidentally knocked overboard and promptly gets amnesia. Proffitt decides to take revenge--he tells her she is his wife (who has been dead for 3 years) and takes her home to be his slave and bring up his four obnoxious little boys.

I like Hawn and Russell a lot but this movie isn't good enough for them. For starters the story is WAY beyond belief and (even though Hawn's character IS evil) I didn't find what Russell was doing to her very funny. In fact I thought it was pretty sick. Also the things he did to convince her that they were married strain credibility. We're supposed to believe all his friends go along with it too. Also you know how this story is going to end and this is far too long (almost 2 hours) for a comedy with this premise.

Story weaknesses aside this just isn't very funny. I think I smiled once or twice. I also found the kids unbearable.

The acting was OK (nice to see Roddy McDowell again) and Russell and Hawn were very good (that's why I'm giving this a 6) but overall I was bored. There were clashes between the director Gerry Mashall and the studio heads--they wanted an adult comedy--he wanted a family friendly one. That could explain why the comedy wavers uncomfortably between a PG and an R rating (it's got a PG one). So--I really can't recommend it.

Each time this movie appears on cable television I cannot help but watch it. I've probably seen it about 5 times by now. It is not the best movie I've seen, but something about it is magnetic. Yes, the plot is as predictable as can be, but it is a good story. The central characters are likeable as well as some of the supporting players (especially Roddy McDowall as Goldie's long-suffering servant). It's a good movie if you're looking for a few laughs and to feel happy, because that is what Overboard generates.

This is an A++++++++ movie! I loved this one. I was very unhappy when I read that 'Overboard' received bad reviews by the definitely brain dead 'critics'. I was working in a video rental store when this came out on video. It was a MAJOR rental that was extremely popular with our patrons. This was an excellent family oriented vehicle. Kurt, Goldie and Roddy were absolutely fantastic! The film critics of today are in very bad form. I think they are being 'paid off' by jealous competitors! Overboard is a 'feel good' film that can excite the viewer! Wonderful! I would have liked a sequel of sorts to this one! Kudos to the actors, writers, directors and producers of this fabulous film! So sorry that you got panned by the petty media! What counts is the VIEWER! If you haven't seen this film, I highly recommend it! In addition to classic film lover's, Frank Capra would have loved this one!
