Ghosting is accurate title because the storyline was dead

Simply abominable. To quote the movie it was almost "like having someone shove your face in your own crap". The many directions this could have taken and they chose this one. Who was the lead ? Hard to say. I honestly can never get the time back.

Sharp, cute and current

As with any creative medium you have to contextualize it in order to appreciate it. This is a made for TV movie about Christmas from a historically poor performing network.

That said, this movie felt pretty fresh. There was real comedy happening, the characters felt thought out and responsive in a human way. As opposed to the myriad of archetypes and plot devices this relied on story and character interaction to drive it forward. It earned every scene and didn't do anything half way. The actors clearly understood the plucky tone and each one had a distinct voice.

I genuinely enjoyed this movie and feel like it will hold up for future feel good needs.

Whaaaa?!??

It's a typical feel-good Christmas romance BUT with so many bizarre twists thrown in. By the end of this movie, I'm wondering who's in love with whom, and why didn't the parents have a bigger part (since the theme seemed to be about "true love". I mean, whose love is as unconditional as a parent?). Plus, the argument/conflict at the end didn't make sense - when you're friend is given a "ghosting" gift like this, are you really going to argue about stupid things???

Beautiful story

This movie is special. Reminds us to love and to be honest. I'm better for having seen it.

What If...

Ghosting: The Spirit of Christmas isn't your typical Christmas movie and that's a good thing. Jess finally meets a great guy, but before things can blossom, she's killed in a car accident on the way home. Normally this would be the end of our story, but what would be the fun in that?

Ghosting: The Spirit of Christmas has a lot of good things going for it. The story moves along rather well, the characters are quite likable and there is noticeable chemistry between the ensemble cast. All in all, i found it to be a fun little Christmas movie, a nice change of pace.
