Ghost Town - Released 12 September 2008

This one is simply enjoyable to watch. If you've watched 'Death Becomes Her and Death Becomes Her' years back, you'll love Ghost Town. It has a similar feel to it, only thing is that this one is more up to date, so to speak. Daring, hilarious and elegant. This film is set in a more familiar setting,distinguishable from many different aspects and angles. It tells a story of a Dentist who died for seven minutes while having a minor surgery. He comes back to life regardless and starts seeing ghosts. Don't be scared, it's not a horror, it's comedy people!

There are times when you'll feel like you've seen this one before and yes while you might be right, one thing sets a different tone to the movie. It's Ricky Gervais' dry humour and acting that manages to salvage an average movie and turned it into a masterpiece. I can safely say with great pride that his film stands out to other similar comedy flicks. If you like The Office, UK version, then you will enjoy this one. Gervais acts quite similarly in this one but with more added expressiveness. With the character being a 'not a people person' type of guy, Gervais excels in delivering the goods.

Tea Leonie has changed much since her days from Bad Boys. She really looks like an aged mother in this movie. However, it did not change the way she acted. If you know Tea Leonie, you would understand and know the way she acts. Its those typical actresses with distinctive characteristics that gives that much needed bomb to entice the audiences to keep wanting to watch the movie. Ghost Town is certainly casted well.

In the end I was pleasantly surprised by the time the cinema lights came out. It's not just the fact that I felt really genuinely fulfilled by a straight forward comedy about ghosts, but that I was quite literally feeling to want to see what's going to happen in the following scene. There also exist that feeling you get when you watch the movie 'Serendipity', obviously I'm talking about the love interest between Gervais' and Leonie's character. Definitely a must watch flick.
4/5 mostly goes to Ricky Gervais!! Awesome Film
