If Patrick Swayze comes back as a ghost, let's all just agree to call the fucking ghostbusters, alright?

This is a two-hour film that could have been shorter. Felt like there was too much time spent with Swayze figuring out his ghost powers and then trying to figure out his own murder. Ah, but we get some stupid, sexy Swayze. Jeez, what a beefcake. What a hunk! He's so gentle and loving. Gotta wipe myself off with a rag.

I didn't like it. I just felt zero chemistry between stupid sexy Swayze and tomboy Moore. Her acting in this role comprised of summoning tears. Whoopi Goldberg was the MVP and kept this movie from the pits of sappiness. I was expecting a lot more from all the subsequent cultural references to it. Sweet loft apartment. Fav scene: Whoopi in her fancy fuchsia outfit visiting the banks.

I always thought this film was creepy, particularly the end, where Swayze enters Goldberg's body for one last go-round with Moore. I mean, it's still Whoopi's body right? Anybody else besides me got a problem with that?

Pretty sappy and unintentionally hilarious romantic tripe that took the country by storm in the early 90's. Swayze literally comes back in wraith form to do some sleuthing to find out who killed him. Whoopi is in one of those "magic negro" mystic roles that's fairly insulting. Overall it's pretty cheesy but it has a few scenes that are memorable.

I love it with Whoopi Goldberg but a supporting character does not a solid film make. Talks down constantly to it's audience, and while the merging of genres can lead to interesting scenes the film's frequent jumps from maudlin sentimentality to a witty yet somewhat cynical comedy (with a good dash of silly) to a murder mystery feels jarring enough to remove you from the whole experience. Same with the possession thing, what the fuck?!

Warning! This is ABSOLUTELY a chick flick! If you want to see a good Patrick Swayze film - go watch Point Break. IF you want to see an excellent Demi Moore film - go see A Few Good Men. If you want your girlfriend/wife to weep uncontrollably for 20 minutes, watch this movie with her. Me - I can't stand the film, even with a good job by Whoopie Goldberg, but I can't call it a bad film. It's just not for me.

Its bad but it's that special kind of 90's bad where its easy to laugh at everything. The dialog is awful, Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore are bad at acting. The pottery scene and every cheesy love moment is laughable with how over the top the cheese is. But there's a lot of foreshadowing and somehow everything that's brought up is used. Whoopi Goldberg is hilarious. And there are a couple of really good shots and scene transitions.
