Editorial Review: Amazon.com: This 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 Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Casper - Ordered for my granddaughter and had it shipped to her in Avondale, AZ. Everything was fine. Rating:  - Family Friendly... Not for the younger onesWithin the first 5 mins. you hear "h*ll" and "d@mn" from one of the characters. Not a problem unless you were hoping to show this to a 5yr old. To be fair, it is a PG film but the it would have played just fine without the language. If families were Spielberg's target audience (who else would watch this), he had to know that the language would keep younger viewers out and that older teens might not be interested in Casper. It was just strange language to hear in a film strongly promoted as "family." ... Read More: Rating:  - Good for Kids, Move Along AdultsCasper Many people have asked me when I was going to kick off the Halloween Season recently, and now I have. Casper is a child-friendly ghost story that is based off an old cartoon series. Considering this film was made in 1995, Casper has held up very well. If you are looking for a fun movie for your children to watch, you might want to check out Casper. If you are an adult, avoid this at all costs. The story is very light hearted. Carrigan, a greedy woman, has just inherited a haunted ... Read More: Rating:  - Not for grown-ups. Watch the scenery.Yet another dopey kiddie movie with almost nothing to offer the parents who have to sit in the theater because their little munchkins wanted to see this stuff. Honestly, why don't family movies aim a little higher? Pixar has proven over and over again that it's possible to make a smart, funny movie that people of all ages can enjoy. Anyway.. I do not own Casper on DVD; I saw it in the theater. I don't even remember why I went to see this; it was probably a family outing, but I might have gone ... Read More: Rating: - Casper, The Family Friendly GHOSTThat one reviewer who complained about using the "B" word failed to explain it was in reference to a dog, which even Jim Carrey used in comic style refer to woman in Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, when he claimed he was refering to her dog instead. Very funny how the word is family friendly in that context. I like this movie, and yes, I am partial since I once dressed as Casper for halloween when Collegeville costumes were all the rage. This movie adaption did not disappoint. The effects of the ghosts are ... Read More: |
