Ghost Town

Ricky Gervais is invariably hilarious, and I rather like Téa Leoni, but why oh why did this movie have to get so unbearably sappy toward the end? It had a lot going for it, I liked the dynamic between them, and then the nausea kicked in. What a shame. If you can, watch the first hour and turn it off, and I'll tell you the shocking secret--they end up together at the end. The best part of a romantic comedy is the meet-cute, anyway, and that's no different in Ghost Town, despite the silly semi-supernatural plot.

  1. Blegch! - I did not like this movie. I saw it for free on an airplane and at the end I still wanted my money back. Ricky can do better, and has. I'll stick to his other work.
