A heartwarming tale of how kidnapping and forced domestic chores make everything right.
JizzmonkeyMy mom refuses to accept if the lead male was played by anyone other than Kurt Russell, it would be a horror film.
Poulana SawyerDec 18, 2019is the entire concept toxic as hell? yes. but is it an absolute treat to watch kurt russell and goldie hawn fall in love? also yes

I think this is actually kind of a fun family comedy, but it's undeniable that Kurt Russell's character is easily one of the most dangerously psychotic human beings in film history.

jourdain searlesAug 15, 2016I never expected a day where I would legitimately enjoy a Garry Marshal film. This movie makes no goddamn sense. Kurt Russel essentially kidnaps a woman with amnesia and tricks her into being his bang maid. After treating her like dirt for 2 acts she all of a sudden…

Yasqueen lovedOverboardI don’t find myself a romantic-comedy kind of person (I listen to them while I’m at work to pass time). But THIS movie was so CUTEEE!!! I had to remember to do my work at some points in the movies. %100 will watch again!!
- Nastka likedOverboard
The way she loved him for the bare minimum after he treated her like some pet (in the worst way) is driving me nuts, but the movie was definitely not “meh”
Mickerdoo lovedOverboardReally light and funny. Hilarious idea. Russell, Hawn and the kids are tremendous. Always the spiteful characters that fall in love.
Angie Lankford lovedOverboardOne of my childhood favorites that holds up to this day, much like Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn’s relationship.👍🏻👍🏻

Metacritic
A classic screwball comedy that draws its inspiration from the 1930's genre. The jokes are quick and amusing enough to carry it through it's hour-and-three-quarters. Russell and Hawn have fun with the characters which comes through and makes it all the funnier.
William Thomas
Empire
Mr. Marshall does a much better job with the feistier early scenes than with this subsequent mush, so the film does have a good first hour. But by the end, the film goes on much longer than it should. The physical look of Overboard is also surprisingly dreary. Though the yacht scenes have some visual wit, particularly where Miss Hawn's outrageous costumes are concerned, John A. Alonzo's cinematography is conspicuously poor.
