Ghost Town

Ghost Town

Who's in it: Ricky Gervais, Greg Kinnear, Téa Leoni

What's it about: Dr. Pincus(Gervais) is a British dentist who went in for a simple procedure in the hospital. After he unexpectedely died and was revived, he begins to see ghosts. Not the scary kind though, really bothersome ones. He tries to ignore them, but when a particular ghost, Frank(Kinnear), starts to really get on his nerves, he listens to him. Frank left a widow, Gwen(Leoni), and he's afraid that she's about to marry into a mistake. With Frank telling Pincus what to say, Gwen and Pincus start to fall in love.

What I Think: This movie was really funny. Gervais really seemed like a boring, geeky, middle-aged man during the movie, but when I watched the bloopers, he was hilarious. The plot of the movie was very interesting and I loved it. Usually, ghost movies are scary, but this one had alot of comedy wrapped in it. It was topped off with Gervais' British accent. Kinnear was really funny as well. I thought that he was a real jerk, but he was a great actor. Leoni was alright. I wasn't too impressed with her, but that's alright.
