“Ghost Town” - Susan Granger reviews
Alliance of Women Film Journalists (Free subscription) | 09/22/2008
The success of this sophisticated, supernatural frivolity is all about the breezy comedic appeal of sardonic, misanthropic Ricky Gervais, whose refusal to suffer fools has turned “The Office” into one of TV’s top programs.

Dentist discovers heart and souls thanks to a dead man talking The fun of Ghost Town starts with the title and doesn't end until the final line. In fact, the ending, in its own milder way, is as perfect as "nobody's perfect" in Some Like It Hot.

Low spirits in 'Ghost Town'
Philadelphia Inquirer (Free subscription) | 09/18/2008
