Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential video:
Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze are the passionate lovers whose romance is undone when the latter is murdered during a bungled hit arranged by a rival. The clever concept by screenwriter Bruce Joel Rubin (director of My Life) extends outward into comedy (Swayze's character communicates through a sassy medium played by Whoopi Goldberg, who won an Oscar for this role), horror (the afterlife is populated by hell-bound demons and the like), and romantic complications (a handsome suitor, played by Tony Goldwyn, comes on to Moore while Swayze's spirit is still hanging around). Directed by Jerry Zucker, previously best known for codirecting Airplane! and similar broad comedies, Ghost is a careful balancing act of strong commercial elements, but at heart it is a timeless Hollywood tearjerker that easily gets under one's skin. --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - Good movie, ok blu-ray
The movie itself is a favorite so I was looking forward to getting it in blu-ray. The video is a step up from the sd dvd but definitely not one of the better blu-ray transfers for a catalog title.

The audio is TrueHD. It is clear and crisp but since this movie is mostly about dialogue the lossless codec doesn't ... Read More
Rating: - Great movie
What a great movie. I have seen it on VHS but had to have it on DVD.

Ghost (Special Collector's Edition)
Its hard to imagine virile, very-much alive PATRICK SWAYZE as a ghost. But that's what he becomes when he is shot by a mugger while walking home with girl-friend DEMI MOORE. Swayze can't figure why he's been left to roam the earth, but it doesn't take him long to work out that he's there for a purpose and that's to protect DEMI from those who had his killing rigged to look like a casual shoot-and-run affair. This isn't easy ( as DEMI can't see or hear him and ... Read More
Rating: - Great love story
This is one of my favorite movies. I highly recommend it to anyone that is looking for humor, suspense, and a great love story.
Rating:  - Sadly it sacrifices the romance for a clichéd plot twist...
Somewhere between good and bad lies `Ghost', a film that has enough working for it to offset the elements working against it, but in the end can't really be labeled as a `good' film or a `bad' one. I feel somewhat torn as to my response towards `Ghost' because the film is essentially two films, one of which works far greater than the other. There is a love story and a murder mystery, and the love story (which ends up taking a back seat to the murder mystery) is in all actuality the most impressive and ... Read More
