Amazon.co.uk Review
Robert Downey Jr. has never been more charming than in this comedy about a yuppie who is revisited in adulthood by the spirits of four people who had been his friends as a child. The ghosts (Kyra Sedgwick, Charles Grodin, Alfre Woodard, Tom Sizemore) all have unfinished business in this world before they can move on to the next, and Downey's character agrees to let them inhabit his body while they sort it all out. The appealing cast alone strongly recommends this movie, but Downey's remarkable facility for physical comedy--manifesting the personalities of his supernatural pals as they possess him--is a riot. Elisabeth Shue makes the best of her part as the hero's girlfriend; Leaving Las Vegas was still ahead of her, but one can see her talent straining to get out here. --Tom Keogh

This is a really good film to watch with the family. There is no violence, swearing or inappropriate behaviour. The cast are all excellent and well directed. It is a real heart warmer which will also make you smile. I confess to still getting tears in my eyes during one scene no matter how many times I have seen it. And the way Robert Downey Jr takes on the characters of his ghost friends is superb and very funny. This is a film that I will never tire of watching because there is so much to it.

This film has only been available on Region 1 NTSC for quite a while, but now at last on Region 2. If you haven't got a multiregion player this film is worth the wait. The beginning can seem a little slow but it turns into one of the best feel-good movies I've seen. Very good casting, in particular Robert Downey Jr, who can act the pants off most male actors, & great direction makes this film a entertaining & worthwhile purchase.
