Janet Maslin, New York Times
While the prospect of watching Miss Hawn play a rude, nasty socialite is appealing, and even the transformation to homebody is a funny idea, Overboard winds up taking things too far.
-
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
A warm and funny movie.

Rita Kempley, Washington Post
If there's an amnesia movie worse than Overboard, it slips my mind.

Peter Canavese, Groucho Reviews
Marshall's sunny, sitcomedic comedies tend to be kinda bad but also compulsively watchable, and this one's no exception... [Blu-ray]

Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn are truly the only reasons to keep watching this otherwise flaccid comedy, which feels static when it should zing and oppressive when it should soar.
