Reseñas (5)
This is one of those movies that deliberately tries to play with the viewer's emotions. The squeezing of emotions was already unpleasant to me when it was made, and it was intensified by the fact that I don't really like the central acting trio... Overall impression: 50%.

At least initially, it is a unusual comedy which has both humor that works and a tolerable romantic arc, as well as mild elements of a crime story. The screenplay is written well and is a decent basis for scenes in which the actors can excel. It is especially worth mentioning Whoopi Goldberg, who was awarded an Oscar for the role of Oda Mae, and Swayze, whom I’m usually not crazy about. Even Demi Moore is bearable, and that's really saying something. The scenes in which Sam learns to recognize his new-found abilities are especially successful. Nevertheless, Ghost evaporates from your memory relatively quickly. With the honorable exception of the iconic scene with the check.

Patrick Swayze is typically boring and cliché, his three expressions throughout the whole movie left me completely uninterested. Whoopi Goldberg, on the other hand, is excellent, and Demi Moore is absolutely fantastic, delivering the best performance of her career. Technically, the film is very polished, with a large number of visual effects that surprisingly don't feel like an eyesore, but rather blend in nicely and add a slightly sweet touch. The high-quality music element with perfectly placed hits from world-renowned performers is also captivating. Jerry Zucker knows when to tug at your heartstrings, when to show some blood and action, and above all, he can brilliantly harmonize them. Smart romantic movies like this one don't come along very often, and Ghost is certainly one of them. The talk of kitsch is completely off base, this must be experienced firsthand.

Insufferable New York WASPs played by the worst actors of their day have an inter-dimensional romance. I get that TV nostalgia is a bitch, and ceramics classes have been a tradition in my house since grade school, but tell me, how did you manage to put this pair together? I mean, I swear she doesn't move a face muscle the whole time and he's a pompous twit without a shred of character. Not to mention that the fictional rules of the afterlife only work here for the actual needs of script development, and when the filmmakers had the chance to do a love scene between Demi Moore and Whoopi Goldberg, they cowardly backed out. I'm hoping Zucker only made this movie because he needed to have material to parody for the sequel to The Naked Gun.

I finally got around to seeing this film in its entirety. It had always been just fragments and parts, which, pieced together gave me the whole picture of what the film was trying to say, but as a whole, it eluded me. Not anymore. And I'm glad that I finally got to see it. It’s a beautiful romance that squeezes out emotions from you, even if you resist it. The actors were chosen absolutely superbly, including Demi Moore, whom I hadn't been as keen on in more recent films. A beautiful film.
