Real-life couple Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn star in this enjoyable 1987 comedy by Garry Marshall (Pretty Woman) about an imperious heiress (Hawn) who loses her memory after a boating accident and is identified as the wife of a handyman (Russell). Russell's character brings her "home" to his messy house and unruly kids, and the laughs follow as the aristocratic Hawn tries fitting in. Marshall delivers the comic goods, the leads are entertaining (Russell needs to do more comedy), and the supporting cast is made up of happily familiar faces, including Roddy McDowall, Edward Herrmann, and Marshall favorite Hector Elizondo in an unbilled bit. --Tom Keogh
Description
It's the craziest mix-up ever! Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell dazzle the screen in this buoyant and screwball comedy of memory-making and memory-faking. One of Hollywood's most dynamic screen pairs, Hawn and Russell make the most of every hilarious situation in this delightful riches-to-rags romance that's perfect entertainment for anyone who appreciates a great practical joke. Hawn is Joanna Stayton, the pampered wife of a pretentious, yacht-owning socialite. When their boat gets stuck for repairs, Joanna employs carpenter Dean Proffitt (Russell) to improve her closet space. But when Dean asks to be paid, he's blatantly turned down by the "nothing is ever good enough for me" Joanna.So when Joanna falls overboard and gets a bad case of amnesia, Dean takes advantage of the situation and, in a stroke of retributive genius, tells her that she's his wife and the mother of hisfour unruly children!

 Love it! July 24, 2010
Robyn Leadbetter (Lehigh Acres, Florida, US)
They just don't make 'em like this one anymore! I'm very glad that I was able to find it on DVD. There's a great moral to the story and lots of slapstick fun all along the way!

Well it has been two weeks past the delivery date and I am still waiting for my order to arrive. I guess if it doesn't come I am out $10.00 and that is a pretty inevpensive lesson to learn!
I've gone Overboard! June 13, 2010

I'm a huge fan of Goldie Hawn. I have watched Overboard twice since I received it. It's just as funny as I remembered it. I was so glad to see that Amazon.com had this DVD available for a great price. The process was easy from ordering to receipt. The price was competitive and the delivery was speedy. I will definitely use Amazon.com again.
 Awesome movie, a little grainy on the video May 15, 2010

Great movie! I love the movie!
The picture is somewhat grainy. It might be pretty noticeable on a large TV. Ours is under 30" and one of the older TVs (before HD meant anything). Farther away, the grainy was unnoticeable.
Would have liked a better quality picture on the DVD. DirecTV's replay of Overboard wasn't grainy the last time I saw it.
