| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Overboard |
|---|
Overboard--it's great fun, a charming romance, if for no other reasaon than to gawk at Kurt Russell's arms and Goldie Hawn's smile--and any movie featuring Roddie McDowell shouldn't be missed.

This movie is cinematography at its best. Overboard defines the social issues of the 80s. Its basically a movie that shows the differnet realities of everday life. Being able to walk in another man's (woman's) shoes and have a whole new take on life.
