Movie Reviews of Casper (Widescreen Special Edition)
Movie Review: A darling movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
Casper was always one of my favorites as a child, and this movie adaptation of the series didn't disappoint. The only thing I can say about this movie that is negative is that some of the language was inappropriate for smaller children. The premise of a man trying to help ghosts with their psychological issues is wonderful, considering the fact that his wife had recently passed away, and it explains his need to prove to himself that the after-life exists. Christina Ricci is adorable in this film, she is the ivory soap/sweet heart next door and you can't beat that in a children's film. Again, the only negative I can say is that some of the language is coarse, not right out swearing, but coarse and not always what I would consider appropriate for small children, but the movie overall is great.
Summary of Casper (Widescreen Special Edition)
Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 05/23/2006 Run time: 101 minutes Rating: PgThis 1995 family film tries to put a fun spin on the story of a paranormalist and widower (Bill Pullman) who moves into a new house with his daughter (Christina Ricci) and meets up with the ghost of a dead little boy. Based on the comic book about Casper the friendly ghost, the film is a dreary series of awkward interactions between live actors and computer effects, and you can almost see Pullman and Ricci reconsidering the project while on camera. A few cameo appearances from uncredited stars help things a bit. But there's no way, based on this film, that one could have guessed that its director, Brad Silberling, would go on to make the exceptional drama City of Angels. --Tom Keogh
