1 out of 5 stars Complete and Utter Nonsense.......2006-06-27

I must say that I don't understand the reviews giving this movie 4 or 5 stars. Its almost as if they're talking about a different movie.

I am a big Bill Cosby fan, but there is almost nothing about this movie that is worth watching. The premise itself is hard enough to believe, what makes it worse is when the rules of how Cosby's non-corporeal self communicates and interacts with the real world seem to change at the writer's whim. There is absolutely no logic governing how this happens. Why, for example, can he walk through walls but is able to pick up a scotch bottle ? How is it possible for him to talk on the telephone ? For that matter how is it possible for anyone except his children to hear him when he talks ? There are no answers to these questions, because its obvious the writers were just making it up as they went along.

Bill Cosby is a great television actor but his movie career leaves much to be desired (Leonard Part 6 anyone ?), this movie is one example why.

4 out of 5 stars very funny and touching.......2006-02-05

i have always been a fan of bill cosby's tv show and i really
like this movie but some parts are so boring it makes me want to go to sleep. the funniest parts hnappen after he dies and
comes back as a ghost. my favorite parts are when he's in the car with his daughter and tony ricker played by dana ashbrook
comes over to the car and gets in and my other favorite is the part when bill comes threw the phone and starts to chock tony
for calling his daughter a bitch. all i have to say is if dana
ashbrook wasn't in this movie i wouldn't have watched it ( no affence to bill cosby) but dana is the only one that makes this
movie watchable for me.

3 out of 5 stars Love the movie...Some problems with the DVD.......2006-02-05

First I will start by saying that I love this movie. I was excited to get it on DVD. The thing that left me perplexed was how scenes were deleted from the DVD. I was disappointed by that. They added a few scenes, but I felt the gap when a part I knew well was skipped. I'm not sure what I feel about that.

5 out of 5 stars Just Great................2005-12-11

I love this movie....... It is in my top ten favourite comedies.... The cab driver in this movie is just soooo funny. Overall this is just a great movie that the whole family will enjoy. I really like the part with the telephone.... you will know what I mean when you see it.... you will really love this phone part if your are a father of a daughter like I am.

5 out of 5 stars Great Family Film!.......2005-10-26

This film was on the television and I saw part of it with my kids and wife and everyone was laughing. So I order the DVD so we can see entire film and it is a family favorite. We watch many times and always laugh. Dr. Cosby makes funny faces and the story is crazy. I thought Ghost movie would be scary for the kids, but this one is just funny. And story is about family-so has good message. Not violence. The kids laugh at the silly parts and adults like the story and the dialogue so it works on different level. This is family classic!
