Overboard

Pros: Hawn and Russell, script, music
Cons: Might not be for very young children

Overboard is a golden oldie with a not so olden Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell teaming up for a very funny romantic comedy. It’s sweet (albeit with rather a cruel streak!), has engaging performances by long-time partners Hawn and Rusell, and ...

Pros: Hawn & Russell
Cons: hmmm not really

Once upon a time a really mean spirited and spoiled rotten rich chick hired a poor but very cute carpenter to install cabinets in her closet on her yacht. The two hated each other. That is, until she falls Overboard and loses her memory... That ...

Pros: Fun, entertaining movie. Hawn and Russell.
Cons: Could be too silly for some.

Goldie Hawn has been in many movies that I have liked. Most of her movies have been comedies, though she has done a few that were more serious as well. I have also liked many of the movies that Kurt Russell has been in. I really enjoyed ...

Pros: Cute story, very 'Garry Marshall,' Kurt Russell is way hot
Cons: It's really not believable, but that's ok!

In 1987 Garry Marshall directed a little movie called Overboard, which starred star crossed lovers Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn. It was/is a delightful, simple movie with plenty of laughs and charm. I just watched it with my family, and although ...

Pros: Excellent funny movie. Love the way it should be.
Cons: Not played on the TV often enough

Overboard has been a favorite movie of mine for many years. It first arrived in 1987. I was just a girl then that still had dreams and still hoped for the fairy tale.

I had long admired Goldie Hawn for her terrific acting ability. While not a...

Pros: Great chemistry between leads, heartwarming
Cons: End sequence a bit much.

I grew up on this movie, and have probably seen it a hundred times at least. When I moved out of my house, I didn't take this movie with me, because that would be stealing, so it was years before I saw it again. I watched it last night, and had ...

Pros: Good cast, good story-line, amusing, some lol moments, great music
Cons: Perhaps a little dated now

I have seen overboard many times and find that, although it is somewhat dated now, I still thoroughly enjoy it. There are many laugh out loud moments and it has a great cast. One of Hollywood's original glamorous couples Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell ...

Pros: Hawn & Russell have great on-screen chemistry and are very funny.
Cons: Kids couldn't act. Lame, predictable storyline. No DVD extras.

"Overboard" falls into the category of film that's best described by the phrase "this was so good, how come I've never seen it before?". It may not have a lot of explosions, gross-out humor, sex, violence, or big name stars, but it works because of the...

Pros: Wonderful comedy, Great acting, A delightful story line.
Cons: None

What a delightful, funny and entertaining movie!

"Overboard" has the characteristics that appeal to most every taste of movie-watchers. The comedy is fabulous. Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn are about as opposite as you can...

Pros: Good Acting, Play Parts well, Plot not bad, No 80's Soundtrack
Cons: Rural people enough to make you cry, babbling moron's, Better the first time

I have seen this movie many times before yet I suppose the only reason I felt compelled to write on it is mainly because I saw yet another repeated rerun.

The Plot is simple enough. Goldie Hawn plays the part of a real *itch. Hey...

Pros: Goldie and Kurt have great chemistry, a must see comedy!
Cons: No DVD extras.

I'm a huge fan of Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn, they are both amazing actors. I always wanted to see them act together, this was a treat no doubt. Overboard is about Dean Proffitt , a single father of four boys who's a carpenter. He's hired by a rich, ...

Pros: Great story and charming performances
Cons: A bit overdone

Admittedly, when I viewed this film, my expectations were low. So, needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the movie, while light hearted and fun, was surprisingly insightful. The story is basic cheese. A rich woman falls from a boat,...

Pros: Great chemistry between Hawn & Russell.
Cons: somewhat predictable

Dean Proffitt (Kurt Russell) is a carpenter in a small town with 3 very unruly kids. He wife is gone and the kids are so bad he can't keep a sitter. The social worker is threatening to take his kids away. And to make matters worse, some rich snob just...

Pros: Great acting
Cons: Not a catchy premise

My tastes are usually pretty high brow. I like meaningful dramas, and English Victorian films. I happened to catch this movie on TNT, and I am shocked to say that I enjoyed it!

It was actually a pretty good movie and exceeded my expectations....

Pros: Excellent all around movie
Cons: it ended *sigh*

I love to watch both Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. The sparks that fly off of each of them in this movie are just hilarious! A friend once told me she had a movie that I HAD to watch. This was it and I own my own now.

Each of us have met...
