It has the gentle feel of Touched By an Angel rather than horror

. I had actually thought this was going to be a series, but it ended up being a 2-hour movie.The story was that very good-kids discover a ghost in the attic of their new home, the Father & older son exploit the haunting, the younger son tries to help the ghost & the Mom is terrified, avoiding the ghost at all costs. That's about it.Well this movie is full of the usual tropes found in any movie of this genre, but the special effects of the ghost and the guy who plays the ghost (David Harbour) are outstanding. The younger son is a typical withdrawn teenager in a new school and he quickly pairs up with the adorable but wacky girl next door. The mystery of the ghost's story is easy to figure out & wraps up nicely in 127 min.Kids, teens are definitely the target audience here, since so much of the story is completely implausible-and I don't mean the "ghost" part but the real-life part. For example, when the cop's car gets wrecked during a chase scene & he stands in the middle of the road shaking his fist as the kids get away. Sorry, there's no way police would simply give up without pursuing 2 teens on the run!One aspect that rang so true was how fast social media stories spread & how info is distorted & editorialized by idiots.Overall it was fun & cute, all actors were excellent (although the adult women were EMACIATED & skeletal) the sets were great and the lighting, photography & editing top notch.This was written & directed by Christopher Landon, Michael Landon's son. He seems to be interested in the paranormal genre and this one has the gentle feel of Touched By An Angel moreso than haunting/horror.

Light, entertaining, one time good watch

Guess, the subject of the review should have been sufficient but these word's limit literally kills the speech. David Harbour, the HELL BOY, coming in a very light, soft, good family watch movie over the Netflix. It is not something extra ordinary, it is not something very different, you can easily guess the ending, but still worth your time. Reviewers calling it like another Casper movie, perhaps in a way true, just that no white tailed ghosts in this one.You will enjoy it surely watching, it will not bore you, though from a very critical point, there are many flaws that could have been covered, but leave that aside, just enjoy.

This movie was fun, I recommend it

What a surprisingly funny, solid movie. Wasn't expecting much, to be sure, but it actually had a great plot and mystery. Plus, all of the actors were great, with one exception.I loved the mom and dad, although Mackie's treatment of his son was kind of weird because he hated his son but didn't seem to mind the other son. There weren't a lot of reasons for that, at least that the movie explained.But overall, it was fun and funny and extremely interesting, too. David Harbor was phenomenal as the ghost. Tough role and he just crushed it.The notable exception is Tig Natoro, who presents as so smug and unwieldy in everything, including this. Her scenes were painful, took me out of the movie every time.Otherwise, this is a Netflix winner and it gets 8 stars because 1 star comes off for Tig.
