Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Megamind To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Stephen Abell Since this is a television movie the subject matter has been toned down. This would have made a good average budget DVD release movie and could have handled the matter a little more accordingly.That said, the director, Jean-Claude Lord (who directed Visiting Hours (1982) and Second Chances (2010) - reviewed in my blogs), does an amiable job with the story by John Benjamin Martin and Donald David Martin.This is a ghost story, but due to lack of horror elements and the amount of time it takes to get to the ghostly action, it is more of a drama. This has so much of a TV movie feel to it. The characters are stereotypical; you can see the twists coming; and the characters relationships are pretty standard and have been done a thousand times before. Nevertheless, the actors and the director do make the film watchable... and at times, enjoyable.Lindsey Price who plays the lead role of Nikki Wickersham gives a passable rendition of a troubled woman who loses her husband, though it's not played as a tear-jerker. Nikki's friend, Margie Mancuso (played by Sadie LeBlanc) and her handyman boyfriend (Niall Matter) are pretty realistic and believable, to a point - this is a TV Movie, after all.It's the lack of direction the story takes which is a stalling point for the film. It sits uncomfortably between, drama, thriller, mystery, and horror. This makes it a bland affair, had the writers or the director chosen just one path to take this could have been better. It needed to be spookier with more tension. The mysterious elements could have been heightened and extended upon. Because the cause of the haunting is hateful, terrible, and unpleasant it was required to be much darker than portrayed here.If there's nothing on the telly and hell has frozen over, then you could do worse than watch this film.

jlfrancis1992 I just recently watched the film and i thought it was very intriguing. Watching as the woman uncovers her husbands family curse was very good at times it was making me feel that i needed to know more. Towards the end as she finds out she is pregnant with a boy and the curse is only for the men of the family that her child was last made it interesting as she was looking for a way to end the curse. What mad me upset was when the ghost of the princess that was kept as a slave until she could love the man's great grandfather, showed the woman where she was buried and that she was strangled and killed along with her infant son. This made me so upset i mean the poor little child and her. Then the curse is gone and its a year on and it ends nice and elegantly. Overall it was a good movie.

mr_dark_eyed that is why I kept watching. Lindsay Price. sexy and cute!! Everything else was so boring, and I knew the 'plot' will be exactly the way it is, from the very beginning. it is the most predictable ghost film. but probably one of very few ghost movies that don't scare or thrill. Rather.. turns you on. Thanks Lindsay Price.a 7 year old kid would laugh at the silliness and stupidity of the plot, dialogue, and every single detail.I think that film was only made for one sole purpose.. Lindsay Price. the 3 stars go to Lindsay. since I need one more line to be able to post this, I take the chance to mention how sexy Lindsay is.

p-stepien What is there to say? It's a predictable ghost story with viewers are miles ahead as far as the plot is concerned. Twists are signalised from a kilometre away and scares are non-existent. So is there anything to redeem this movie? Well... Lindsay Price is sexy and does a bang-up job as a lead in this TV movie. Sure would want to see more of her, as she conveys emotions and really makes her presence felt. Apart from that nothing to really admire, but the movie isn't dumb, is nicely shot and hence deserves a solid 4/10.You can definitely pass on this movie. Nihil novi. Would definitely benefit from calling in the Ghostbusters.
