This movie is a must see or buy for the movie lover and love of old england. Patrick stewart is an excellent actor in this movie and neve campbell does an outstanding supporting role and lead. this was a wonderful book to read and the movie follows along with the book to a tee. I highly suggest this movie to families and movie buffs alike. This was hard to find on dvd though so make sure you look hard to find what you need. The canterville ghost would be great if they did a part 2 to follow up with the family and the remainder of the story. This was a bit of a downfall towards the end of the movie. Otherwise this is the top rating of excellent.!!!
I found it to be a very touching story. Patrick Stewart's was ideal in casting as the ghost and gave a splendid performance. His background classical training in acting made him ideal to quote/play from Hamlet and to play a 400 year old ghost. This is a great family night movie the whole family will enjoy.

"Seen it - heard it before" story line where a disbelieving over reactive scientist father verbally abuses his daughter for more than an hour believing she's trying to scare everyone back to Indiana by creating odd occurrences in a scary old castle and fabricating a ghost whom no one can see except her and her two brothers. In the end Patrick Stewart ( Sir Simeon The Canterville Ghost) is reunited with his dearly departed similar to the ending in the Disney movie, Hocus Pocus, and were led to believe after seeing the ghost, an abusive unbelieving father is instantaneously transforms into a positive minded, kindly natured, loving soft spoken supportive father to the daughter who in return easily forgets and forgives and they all live happily ever after. I give this movie three stars for the brilliant performance by Patrick Stewart.Read full review
I always wanted to see this version of The Canterville Ghost. Never had the opportunity. It's a nice family film, good for kids. Ghosts are involved in the film, but not in a scary matter. Just in case your worried about that. Your kids should be fine with it.
