Get ready to fall in love all over again with one of the most popular romantic comedies of our time: Oscar®-winner Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell star in this riches-to-rags love story about a snobby yacht-owning socialite (Goldie) whose accidental amnesia presents the perfect opportunity for a widowed local carpenter (Russell) to convince her she’s his wife and mother to his four out-of-control kids.

And so a deal with Severin and MGM begins...

Didn't expect this from Severin, I figured it more of a Kino Lorber title. Nice surprise and I like the MGM logo they chose for the spine. $17.00 is also a good price for a new pre order!

That new logo was part of their rebranding in March.

I'm shocked. I've always associated Severin with cheap & sleezy films, like Something Weird Video, those rare and exotic B-Grade drive-in/Grind-House/Exploitation type of films.

So for me to see them release OVERBOARD....I'm like...WHAT???

Wow.

Where was it $17? Amazon lists it at $26.

This is great! I loved this movie as a youngster, and I missed the bluray when Walmart had it for 5 bucks. I'll be preordering this right away.

Here's to hoping we get many more MGM titles with Severin...

Oh HELL yes, if they can get a better transfer.

I always get a kick out of seeing former (then-future) Family Feud host Ray Combs playing the small role of the cop at Elk Cove Hospital.

+1000!
Would LOVE a new transfer on TSoN

PowellPressburger · 05-25-2021, 06:40 PM

Hmmm I think the old MGM/FOX Blu didn't have the original MGM UA opening logo, this edition might.

I know the old Laserdisc has the correct one.

Yes, please.

TenYearLurker · 05-26-2021, 02:43 AM

Excited in theory--especially if there's a new and improved transfer. I'll be waiting to see and make sure Severin doesn't botch the release before I pick it up, though.

Weirded Wonder · 05-25-2021, 06:42 PM

Love this movie. My wife and I watch this a couple times a year.

SleazyForWeasley · 05-25-2021, 06:47 PM

YES!!!! I've been holding off on buying this for years because of how bad the reviews are for the existing releases. I remember seeing this at the rundown second-run theater in 7th grade. This is one of my all time favorite lazy saturday afternoon 'watch anytime it was on tv' movies from adolescence. Preordered.

Torgon · 05-25-2021, 06:52 PM

Not sure if I’ll double dip or not. Love the movie, so if the reviews are good I may bite. Or maybe wait for a price drop.

VikingHead2000 · 05-25-2021, 07:37 PM

My wife and I absolutely love this film. Undoubtedly the best Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn did together. They work beautifully together. Definitely picking this one up. “Come to daddy!”

rocknblues81 · 05-25-2021, 11:09 PM

Ok movie... Not sure about upgrading.... I love Russell, but I never got the appeal of Goldie Hawn. She isn't offensive or really bad or anything... Just never understood the hype.
