Ghost Town Recent Fan Reviews

  • Must Go!

    A great feel good movie!

    This had great humor and touching sentiment! My husband laughed so hard during one scene that he almost fell out of his seat! If you want to see a movie where you don't need to worry about stupid humor, foul language or whatever else bothers you, then go see this movie. You'll leave the theater in a much better mood than when you came in!
