  One of the most tried and true of the screwball comedy formulas: uptown girl, downtown guy, together temporarily and hating it. 90 minutes later its wedding bells. Roll credits. Entirely dependent on the charisma of the leads. Russell and Hawn supply the goods in what only can be described as a guilty pleasure. Garry Marshall directs the predictable proceedings.

  I did not buy the romance, and the plot points were so farcical this film was almost unwatchable. Is this seriously your favorite film,. Reese Witherspoon?

• Bethany M

  
  Goldie Hawn is hilarious! A classic!

• Jameson W

  
  Goldie Hawn is great!

• Anthony L

  
  A typical 80's silly romantic comedy and the most guilty of pleasures. 'What could I give the woman who has everything?' 'A little Girl' Melts my heart every time ;o)

  Rom com about a rich woman who loses her memory when she falls overboard and a handyman claims her in to look after his four children.

  With Mullets and illogical plots this movie is still great.

• Lenny M

  
  I think this film is just a visual representation of Hawn and Russell's marriage.

• Nani V

  
  Never get tired of this one...

• Film C

  
  it was reli gd and funy and gives you a test of two lives and real romantic comedy but not to romantic

• xGary X

  
  Surprisingly good revisitation of the screwball romantic comedy in which real life couple Hawn and Russell spark off each other pretty well. A guilty pleasure.

• Dean !

  
  A pretty good light hearted comedy as a wealthy heiress goes overboard and ends up with amnesia. Then she is led to believe that she is the wife of a local handy man and mother to 3 chaotic kids!

• Steve K

  
  Guilty pleasure. I love this movie.

  Goldie Hawn is funny as an heiress suffering from amnesia who is taken advantage of by blue-collar single father Kurt Russell, who uses her to help keep his mob of kids in order. Despite its predictability, it's good-natured fun along <i>Taming of the Shrew</i> lines,… More
  Goldie Hawn is funny as an heiress suffering from amnesia who is taken advantage of by blue-collar single father Kurt Russell, who uses her to help keep his mob of kids in order. Despite its predictability, it's good-natured fun along <i>Taming of the Shrew</i> lines, with Hawn a good deal less painful than usual.

  It's always good to see Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell together; I hope they still are. One of the great real-life couples in showbiz. Although this one may stretch the bounds of your credibility, especially when it comes to how easily Hawn accepts her motherhood role and the attendant housekeeping activities, the comic spirit and loving bonds of <i>Overboard</i> more than make up for problems of believability.

  Entertaining in a guilty pleasures kind of way.

  I really enjoyed this movie; it's so 80's, but that's one of the things that makes it great. Kurt Russell plays Dean, a carpenter who is also a single father to four boys. He takes on a job for Joanna, an extremely rich and ignorant woman who takes advantage of Dean's carpentry skills and decides not to pay him. Eventually, something happens to Joanna and she gets amnesia and remembers nothing about her past. Dean then calls her his wife and uses her for house chores. The beginning is a little goofy, I admit, but it becomes such a warm story of family and parenthood. Despite the ending being a little predictable, I was totally fine with it. Overall, Overboard is one of the defining movies of the 80's and still holds it's charm to this day.
