Actividad Poco Normal

I was lured in by the movie cover/poster and with the enticement of this being a comedy with a supernatural twist. However, I had not heard about the movie prior to finding it and picking it up. But still, a horror comedy with a ghostly element, what is there not to like?

Right, well I must start off by saying that "Ghost Team One" is as such not an overly bad movie. It just didn't turn out to be what I had expected. Sure, there are some good moments and some good enough laughs to be found here and there. But the movie as a whole just didn't turn out to be all that impressive or interesting.

What worked in favor of the movie was the characters and the acting talents recruited to portray these characters. Sure, the characters were generic to the core, but there was just still something lovable and funny about them. I will say that it was Carlos Santos who carried most of the movie singlehandedly.

The story in "Ghost Team One" was probably what killed the enjoyment for me, because it didn't turn out to be a rather interesting or captivating storyline. So writers Andrew Knauer and Arthur Pielli hardly gave directors Ben Peyser and Scott Rutherford all that much to work with. And that also transcended onto the acting talents, because they had little to work with in terms of a fulfilling script.

"Ghost Team One" is hardly an effects movie, and makes use of very few effects actually. But then again, it is not the type of movie that has to rely on special effects.

Now, there were the occasional hilarious scene here and there, but they were not enough to levitate the movie out of the mediocre fast lane.

I managed to sit through the entire movie, although I was pressed at times in terms of focusing on the movie and concentrating on the movie. Once you have seen "Ghost Team One" the first time, chances are slim to none that you will return to watch it again.

I was lured by the IMDb User Rating 5.0/10 from 834 Users. If you have the brain of an amoeba, you may like this movie and find it funny or entertaining. There is a chance and probably this is the profile of the users that voted and granted this high User Rating.

"Ghost Team One" does not worth neither the power to keep on the TV, the Blu-Ray player and the home theater. And is too noisy and brainless, so it is good neither for sleeping nor too see.

If you have the DVD, the photographic cover is cool, but will make you recall this movie so you can throw it in the garbage and use the case in another DVD. Maybe this is the only utility for this movie on DVD. My vote is one (awful).

Title (Brazil): "Equipe Caça Fantasmas" ("Ghostbusters Team")

Okay, I like oddball, off the wall, low budget movies. I can find humor in places most people don't and I don't require drugs or alcohol to do it. For this film I just don't get it. Another reviewer compared this to Naked Gun....., wonder what roll he had in the making/producing of this movie??? Save yourself, this starts out slow and stays there for 90% of the film. Yes there are a couple funny moments and when the "climax" arrives it makes you chuckle, but that's it. You will never get this time back in your life, so seriously go buy some paint and watch it dry, you will thank me. I gave it 2 stars as I am in a generous mood today :)

Give it a try. It is absolutely hilarious. Humor is clever and cheeky.

Actors are outstanding and chemistry between them is on the point So many small funny details. We had to pause it at moments how much we laughed!

Best comedy in very long time. I Cann really recommend it. Many Hollywood A movies are not half so good.

I watched this movie on Netflix so my expectations were extremely low. It went above my expectations as just another dumb movie to just pass the time because I've had quite a good few laughs from it. It's one of those movies thats just enjoyably dumb.

I like to think of this movie as a mix between "Paranormal Activity" and "Tucker & Dale vs. Evil". It's got a few hit and miss jokes as well as a little bit of horror in it. If it makes you laugh in just the first few minutes then you might find this movie enjoyable. Just don't put too much expectation thinking this is a high budget movie.

It's got a good cast of actors who I think played the characters perfectly. The story is pretty straight forward, two buddies investigating a haunted house. This is one of those movies that is just worth checking out if you got nothing else to watch on Netflix.
