Beverly Hills Ghost

This movie was funny and light-hearted with a dark sense of humor. I couldn't tell how it was going to end. It kept twisting and turning.

The idea of a person coming back as a ghost to find out who killed her has been done before, but is a nice enough idea. The plot, the red herrings, the eventual motive and uncovering are quite well put together and the acting by all the teenagers was not at all bad. My problem is with the adults. Their performances are so ridiculous, that they have careered into caricature, so much so that it threatens to drag the rest of the movie into dis-belief. I'm guessing that the performances were directed this way for humour, to me it wasn't necessary and there was enough light hearted moments throughout the rest of the movie to keep people happy. Not a bad movie though and worth watching for the teen age group.

I only made it five minutes in so I didn't watch the entire movie. The first impression i had was the acting was awful. I couldn't bare to move further into the story line. When the girl realized a ghost was in her room she had no reaction. I'm pretty sure we'd all freak out and cry right? Lol

Beverly Hills Ghost is a fun, lighthearted watch, with an interesting twist at the end. My boyfriend and I genuinely enjoyed it, and we're in our mid-20s. I especially loved the progression of Missy and Sari's relationship -- the dialogue between them is lovingly snarky and relatable. Made me want to hit up all my girlfriends to hang. I'm not a professional film critic, but for an indie production company's first movie, this was very well done on so many levels! Definitely a feel-good movie that I'd recommend to kids/families, teens, and even 20-somethings.

Keeping in mind that most of the characters are Beverly Hills cliches, this is a very funny whodunit ghost story. With a teaspoon of seriousness. As one pretty much surmises from the title, there is a ghost in Beverly Hills. A high school senior apparently committed suicide, but her ghost appears to one special girl and lets her know that she isn't sure exactly how she died, but it certainly wasn't suicide. And the fun starts there. Bev Hills High is full of typical spoiled Cali students, any of whom might know what happened, or, God forbid, may be a murderer! Okay, that's the first 3 minutes of the movie--the rest is serious fun.
