Summary - Great 4.0
As a rabid Ricky Gervais fan, this movie would have to screw up pretty royally to earn my disapproval, but I must say it managed to impress me anyways. Despite being rather formulaic, Ghost Town was hilarious and sweet. As Bertram Pincus (D.D.S…), Gervais portrays the perfect jackass: blunt, misanthropic, awkward and funny. Really god-damned funny…
Acting - Very Good 3.5
Quality comic timing from Gervais and Kristen Wiig, as well as a great performance from Tea Leoni. Otherwise, nothing particularly noteworthy…
Male Stars - Very Good 3.5
Female Stars - Very Good 3.5
Female Costars - Very Good 3.5
Male Costars - Very Good 3.5
Film - Great 4.0
The ghost effects are pretty minimal, but they all looked great.
Direction - Great 4.0
Dialogue - Great 4.0
Music - Great 4.0
Visuals - Great 4.0
Edge - Risqué 2.0
Some swearing. Also, extended conversation about a mummified penis.
Sex Titillating 2.0
Violence Fierce 2.0
Rudeness Salty 2.0
Reality - Fantasy 4.1
So yeah, ghosts and stuff… Everybody seems to adjust to the fact that they’re dead and walking, or perceiving specters thereof pretty fast…
Circumstantial - Fantasy 4.1
Biological - Fantasy 4.1
Physical - Fantasy 4.1

Regarding BrianSez’s Review
Seems about right Bri. Wasn’t worth heading out to pay at the theater, but worth seeing.
