Ghost (1990)


I've heard thousand times that Ghost is the must see 90s romantic movie. So I just decided to buy the DVD and watch it.

1990

1. I personally do not like Demi Moore. Maybe because the first thing I heard about her was about her entire body plastic surgery. The very first movie starring her was the Charlie's Angel for me and that she was in bad girl. So seeing Demi Moore in her 20s and so pretty looking and young and kind and nice personality with her tough and rough voice, I was a bit shocked and had the prejudice that this character doesn't really suit her well. I don't know the 90s stars so I have no idea who was famous at that time but I rekon there might be a better actress than her to play this role. Her acting was average in my opinion. BUT the Oda Mae Brown - Whoopi Goldberg was AMAZING !!! She was the reason for me to watch this entire movie. There were no horrible acting actors. Everyone was decent and well represented their characters.


2. Despite the fact that it was created in 1990, the sound effect and visual effects were relatively good. The idea of ghost and heaven and hell was well illustrated and distinguished. I can guess that maybe one of the product teams was Christian as they expressed the existence of heaven and hell and showed who will enter heaven and who won't. My father was keep telling me how "new" and "fresh" this movie was at that time and I completely agree. It was interesting to watch. A bit obvious how it was going to end and how the story was going but it was interesting.


3. Will not ever watch this movie again with my parents for sure. Especially the first part, before Same dies, all that expression of love between Sam and Molly was too much for me to watch it with my parents.


4. Product placements were still there in this movie. For example, Reebok shoe box where Molly kepts Sam's stuff after he dies. There are more but Reebok was the obvious one.

If you haven't watched this movie. Watch it. It's worth it.
