Overboard(1987)
Joanna Stayton is a super-rich spoiled brat, over-bored you might say. Dean Proffitt is a struggling carpenter who should know how to handle brats since he raised four of them. One night Goldie goes overboard on her yacht, loses her memory, and winds up in Dean's world. Then the sparks begin to fly. For more about Overboard and the Overboard Blu-ray release, see the Overboard Blu-ray Review published by Jeffrey Kauffman on January 23, 2011 where this Blu-ray release scored 3.0 out of 5. Starring: Kurt Russell, Goldie Hawn, Edward Herrmann, Katherine Helmond, Roddy McDowall, Mike Hagerty Director: Garry Marshall » See full cast & crew Overboard Blu-ray, Video QualityGlub, glub, glub. Overboard was never a particularly attractive film to begin with, and aside from receiving an anamorphic transfer on this new Blu-ray, there's unfortunately not a lot of good news about this AVC encoded transfer in 1080p and 1.85:1. While this print doesn't have the egregious damage that the previous SD-DVD exhibited, there are still occasional flecks and speckles. The worst thing about this transfer is the overwhelming grain which devolves at times into digital noise, which crops up especially in exterior shots of Dean's dilapidated house. The initial shots of this house in midrange almost look like a swarm of insects are covering it, and strange as it may seem, every midrange shot of the house for the entire film suffers from this same anomaly. Colors are okay, nothing more, with adequate but far from eye-popping saturation. The overall look of the film is depressingly soft and mushy, with less than crisp contrast and unstable black levels. Yes, it's a step up from previous home video releases, but really not by much, aside from its correct aspect ratio. Overboard Blu-ray, Audio QualityNo surround mix here, but a perfectly serviceable lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 mix makes the most of the ubiquitous source cues and live music performances which fill the film. Dialogue and underscore are both handled very well, and the frequent ambient environmental sound effects are also well mixed and offered with good fidelity here. Everything is easy to hear, albeit almost resolutely placed front and center for the bulk of the film. Even for a stereo mix, this is a fairly narrow soundfield, with very few if any discretely directional effects placed throughout the movie. Dynamic range is excellent, and the low end on the film is surprisingly robust, adding a bit of sonic "oomph" to the proceedings.
