This was a very good film

Rating: Null/10 (5 September 2001)

This story had it all - comedy, heartbreak, love and very good elements besides such as the murder plot which was very well done, but there could've been a few more suspects to choose from and since we're already down to two to begin with - Willy and Carl, there's no real surprise when it transpires that Carl is in league with Willy and they murdered Sam, or at least conspired to. But it's never really made clear whether Sam was accidentally killed.
Excellent performances all round - not just Whoopi - though the bank scene where she realizes she's going to get $4 million is just one of the highlights of the film. Of course, with any film, there's going to be some dull points. However, they are kept to a minimum and as this film, like many others, is almost unbelievable some of the time, it still doesn't bore and makes for entertaining filming for two hours. Sometimes the acting is weak but most of the time its good.
The film contains some rather strong violence in places so I wouldn't recommend this film to people with a nervous disposition. However, if you want a good film that's not at all bad, then Ghost is my choice. Perhaps the ending was not quite believable enough - though I won't give it away here. See the film and judge for yourself. Perhaps some of the film also is too quickly executed - such as Whoopi's rather quick appearance -- though later we do miss Whoopi because the film does drag quite a bit between scenes without Whoopi. Goldwyn makes a good villain as does the actor who plays Willy. It's still a good film, definitely 8 out of 10 from me.
