Tell me something about my life, Dean, something not horrible.

Overboard is the kind of a fun movie to watch anytime. I saw it the movie theater 14 years ago. Today, I still watch it on television or on the video tape. It is truly a comedic classic not to be disregarded at all. It is truly funny, entertaining, and enlightening. If haven't seen it, you must for a good time. Great cast of actors and characters, I miss Roddy McDowall. I wished that Roddy got knighthood while he was alive. Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn have been together what must be like an eternity in Hollywood or at least a few years. Edward Herrmann has a great supporting role as Joanna's husband and Katherine Helmond from "Who's the Boss?" plays Joanna's snobbish New Yorker mother. The story begins with rich Joanna wanting a closet for her shoes so she hires a local carpenter, Kurt Russell, who does not meet her criteria. She insults and mistreats him like an animal and refuses to pay him. When she falls overboard accidentally, she loses her memory. When Kurt's character finds out, he decides to bring her home and make her pay him back. The predictable event happens so watch and see and don't watch the butchered television version either.

4 boys living all together, yet they were all alone

Kurt Russell plays the widowed father of four boys who are as far from the Brady Bunch as you can get. He's a bit of a big kid himself who thinks just paying the bills and providing food and a roof is all that matters. In fact rich Hollywood heiress Goldie Hawn hires him to redo her shoe closet on her yacht while they are vacationing in the Pacific Northwest in the Columbia River. When it doesn't meet her most exacting standard she stiffs Russell on the $600.00 she was going to pay him. But when Goldie falls overboard in the middle of the night and acquires a case of amnesia, Kurt claims her as his bride and she goes off to become his bond servant.

Strange things do happen and eventually Goldie starts really thinking she belongs with him after some rough initiation. House work and she are strangers. It's helped however by the fact she has one drip of a husband in Edward Herrmann. And her work ethic was acquired from her mother Katherine Helmond who apparently understudied with the Helmsley family.

Kurt and Goldie and the 4 kid actors who play Kurt's kids in Overboard provide the best scenes in the film. Sad to say it gets so raunchy a G rating is impossible. Still the PG is there even if close to the wire.

Overboard is the perfect kind of vehicle for Kurt and Goldie and their fans will eat it up.

So will the rest of the movie going public.

stupid premise but some funny feel good moments

Spoiled rich Joanna Stayton (Goldie Hawn) hires lowly carpenter Dean Proffitt (Kurt Russell) to revamp her closet on her yacht. When she won't pay for the work, she pushes him overboard. He loses all his tools and his kids are a bunch of brats. Later that night, she falls off the yacht and is found suffering from amnesia. Her husband Grant (Edward Herrmann) is tired of her frigid anger and sails away claiming she left him. Dean comes up with a scheme to get back the money she owes him. He claims that she's his wife Annie. The staff is tired of her bossy ways and he tells them about a birthmark on her butt. He takes her home to take care of his kids and home. Eventually she becomes a good mother and a loving wife. Meanwhile her mother Edith Mintz (Katherine Helmond) is suspicious of Grant after 2 months of avoidance and demands to see her or else.

This is a completely ridiculous unlikeable premise. It is stupidity that only can come from an 80s rom-com. The leads do develop good chemistry over the course of the movie. Somehow director Garry Marshall makes this work... barely. It has a sweet ending and everybody goes home happy. It has some funny moments and some feel good moments.
