Overboard is a 1987 American romantic-comedy film which stars Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russel. The film opens with Joanna Stayton (Goldie Hawn) as a spoiled heiress is pampered in life and hires Dean Proffit (Kurt Russel) to build a closet for her. Joanna is then disappointed to find the closet that has been made for her is made out of oak instead of the specific wood she wanted that she never specified in the first place. She then would argue with Proffit and in the end, pushes Proffit off the ship along with his tools. As part of the audience, this struck me the most as the level of her cruelty is most surprising and amusing as well. I got intrigued into the moment as to what will happen to Stayton in the end.

Although I felt like it was going to be a cliche movie, with all those happy endings with the pampered character becoming the selfless one and the protagonist finding the love of his life. I'd say I did see it coming although the center plot was amusing enough to let me keep watching but the cliche parts were a bit annoying to ask myself the question "why am I here?". But of course the plot is very nice to begin with. Story line kept going and going.
