CHRISTIAN MOVIE REVIEW: Ghost Town (2008)

The movie reviewed here is NOT for children.

  • GENRE: Comedy / Romance
  • ACTORS: Ricky Gervais, Tea Leoni, Greg Kinnear, Kristen Wiig, Alan Ruck, Billy Campbell, Danai Jekesai Gurira, Aasif Mandvi, Uzimann, Dennis Albanese, Megan Byrne
  • RATING: PG-13
  • PARENTAL NOTE: Not for children. Some bad language and questionable situations. The portrayal of death is inconsistent with a Christian viewpoint.
