Tietoja tästä elokuvasta

A spirited romantic comedy, Ghost Town is the story of Bertram Pincus (Ricky Gervais), a cranky Manhattan dentist who develops the unwelcome ability to see dead people. Really annoying dead people. But, when a smooth-talking ghost (Greg Kinnear) traps Bertram into a romantic scheme involving his widow Gwen (Tea Leoni), they are entangled in a hilarious predicament between the now and the hereafter!

It's great to see a story without cynicism. Perhaps it's a romantic comedy, but it also speaks to the core value that all of us have, or need to find, and that makes it more than a rom-com. And then, also, this easily could have been maudlin, trite, over-wrought or pseudo-mystical, but instead the screenplay steered a nuanced course avoiding all those "reefs". So it ends up as a story with heart, and just as the movie's characters changed for the better, maybe you will, too, by watching it.

Ricky Gervais is naturally funny. Teamed up with Greg Kinnear as a cheating husband who dies but has unfinished business, haunts Gervais until he agrees to help. Enter Tea Leoni as Kinnear's widow. Craziness ensues.
