GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Manthast Absolutely amazing

Connianatu How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Theocore Cerame Casper is a most heartwarming, endearing and beautiful film, especially Christina Ricci. Casper the movie is well written combining a love story, comedy and drama. Although Casper is a ghost in the finale the love given to him by Christina's character brings him back to a moment of corporal essence finding himself in the girl's arms. The girl suddenly discovers that they are floating above the floor mid-air. At first startled she soon realizes that the levitation symbolizes the miracle of what had happened, what she made happen to Casper. Their love is sealed with a memorable kiss. Pure. Good. Beautiful. For this performance alone Christina Ricci is immortalized as one of the most accomplished actress's of our times. Like her, the movie Casper the Ghost shall also endure. Art is common. Great Art is rare.

Davis P Cathy Moriarty is the best thing in this movie, let's just make that real clear right now. Her acting was actually good, and I liked her in her villain character. As for Bill Pullman, not so much, I really felt like he was miscast in the father role. But then again, he didn't have very good material to work with here. The script is muddled and unfunny, and the movie as a whole just didn't really work, in my opinion that is. This is supposed to be a funny, cute, family movie about Casper the friendly ghost, but we didn't. I think the biggest reason this movie just doesn't make you laugh, it attempts, but it does not succeed, at least not with me it didn't. The actors seem kinda uncomfortable and unsure as to what the heck is going on, except for Cathy Moriarty, like I said before, she's good. I love her big line in this movie: "the b**ch is back!" Even though I was surprised to hear that line in a family movie, but I liked it, I thought it brought power, that was about the only line I thought was good lol. Christina Ricci was so so, she annoyed me at times, but she wasn't bad in this, she was just alright, nothing to point at and brag about, but nothing to be ashamed of either. Overall, this just did not work for me. 3/10, it only got that high really because of Moriarty.

Python Hyena Casper (1995): Dir: Brad Silberling / Cast: Christina Ricci, Bill Pullman, Cathy Moriarty, Eric Idle, Amy Brenneman: Mindless geek show unsuitable for children due to its excessive occult references. Lame plot introduces Bill Pullman plays a ghost therapist who communicates with spirits. Cathy Moriarty and Eric Idle play standard villains who hire him to rid ghost activity from a house so that they may gain a supposed treasure. Christina Ricci plays Pullman's daughter who befriends Casper who lives with three mischievous uncles. Director Brad Silberling does his best to create Casper's world with fantastic visual elements but that is about as far as the compliments go. Ricci is a decent young actress but this is pure cardboard. Pullman has no believable reactions to the ghosts, and his decision to get drunk and fall to his death is absolutely beyond moronic. Perhaps he was just reacting to the fact that he got casted in this sh*t to begin with. The whole scheme to bring him back to life is just about as stupid as this gets. Moriarty and Idle overact shamelessly as the idiotic villains. Their greed hits such a high pitch that they attempt to kill each other so that their spirit can get inside a safe to get the treasure. And this junk is suppose to be appealing to children. This all comes down to distasteful marketing that leaves Casper as not such a friendly ghost after all. Score: 3 / 10

mark.waltz Taking the classic comic book and cartoon onto the big screen, this version of the story of the friendly ghost gives the viewer an inside look as to who Casper really was and his life before and after becoming the sweet spirit. Fresh from her star-making role of Wednesday Addams, Christina Ricci is perfect to play the poor child who is initially scared of him but soon wants to help the spirit of the child find out the truths. Her father Bill Pullman also gets involved as do the sinister Eric Idle and Cathy Moriarty as the agent and owner of the house who hire Pullman to get rid of the spooks which includes more than just Casper. Moriarty is particularly entertaining as one of the most outrageous of greedy characters, and her shrieking (which made her the scene stealer of "Soap Dish") takes over here as well to make her unforgettably funny.There are some delightful surprises in this mostly sweet-natured tale of the tying together of two different generations of children, one live, the other dead, the greed of adults, and the Peter Pan like belief in a world beyond our grasp. Try not to feel tears of joy and nostalgia when Casper takes Ricci on the train ride to his long hidden bedroom and is later allowed to face the truth of why he is who he is. Ricci and Pullman too also face the loss of their mother and wife, although one of Casper's prankster uncle ghosts also gets in the way comically. This is a family film that proves to be innocent yet never juvenile and cloying.
