Girl Haunts Boy

Girl Haunts Boy was honestly a pleasant surprise. It had that cozy, slightly quirky vibe that works well for a supernatural romance, and the directing kept things grounded even when the story leaned into the more whimsical moments. Emily Ting handled the pacing pretty well, giving the characters enough space to grow without dragging the plot. The production was clean and polished without feeling too polished, if that makes sense. It had a kind of indie spirit but looked and sounded like a proper feature.

Acting-wise, both Peyton List and Michael Cimino brought a lot of charm and sincerity to their roles. They had great chemistry, and it helped carry the emotional beats without things feeling forced. The script kept things light without losing its emotional core, which made it easy to connect with the characters. Nothing felt over-explained or too dramatic. The score was subtle but nicely done, and the cinematography had some soft, warm tones that gave the film a nice visual texture. It's one of those films that doesn't scream for attention but ends up sticking with you a bit after. Definitely worth a watch.

I love the story. And I love the music specially the song at the end. Well, I don't wanna go on and on about what happened in the movie but I love movies that come from books. Now I'm gonna have to read the book. It's a really sucks that I have to write characters to make a review. I'm not gonna go into depth about the movie because that would give it away, but I always love stories that have to do with time. Either time travel or a ghost in a person in the current world.zylxoysltztkjgcpjxlgzlgcjxlgzlhxluxkhl. Kxyxoyxouxulxou xiyoyxhsulsoys tkzoysoysoyspu xkyzoyzouxpuxi gist okay. Yum kgLyzpyzlyzlhx zkhzoyzulu Now I just need to find the music for that last song Google says there's no such thing somebody please tell me the name of that song that was at the end of the movie.

Original, fun and safe, even for kids. I like scary stuff and romance too, so... Well there's a venn diagram!

In this tiny niche I would include "Warm Bodies" where a girl finds true love with a zombie, and even the old "Gremlins" movies.

Hallmark style, pretty scenery, with warm sets, and plenty of bokeh. There aren't a lot of twists, but the few they use are great!

Peyton is new to me, but she's fantastic and I would give a movie a chance just to see her do more. This part seemed as easy as breathing for her.

Overall 8 of Ten rated as what it is. A safe and fun Halloween Romance. As those go, this is one of the best.

It is a sweet story with moments that are pretty good.

Unfortunately, between those moments it also has some really slow sections.

It has some fun and it has some real heart, but it also felt like it was about 20 minutes too long. They could have streamlined it a fair amount or added another character or two for him to interact with. More Lydia would have been great and perhaps another new 'friend' that would keep finding him appearing to talk to himself or even a sidekick for Lydia.

While the main characters generally did fine, they just weren't always enough to carry it through so long mostly by themselves. The fun, more lighthearted scenes were great; but the chemistry between the leads and the stronger emotional sections were where they struggled. Those sometimes felt forced. A couple good side characters could have easily distracted from much of that.

There were a fair amount of plot holes and overly convenient moments. Someone shouldn't be completely oblivious to the changes in the world when they can see out windows, front doors to museums aren't usually unlocked and unguarded after hours, if they can see and hear people living in the house over the years it would seem they would pick up slang and exclusive, high end parties aren't generally things that are super easy to just walk into unnoticed, especially out of costume. Like so many movies, it felt like just a bit more time spent on fine tuning the script could have made a big difference.

Watched with my wife and it was a quick fun movie that was a change of pace from the regular halloween releases the last few years. Definitely recommend for teens and pre-teens or just a nice couples movie to relax to. When it was over sitting with my wife we kept talking about it being so familiar and after some searching we remembered the old Disney movie with the Pink Power Ranger. Not exactly the same and (apparently there is no streaming copy of Susie Q available). Girl Haunts boy was Still a good watch with nice music and the actors did a nice job with a ghostly romance story. If you can find a copy of Susie Q after I would recommend for a follow up to this one.
