DVD Reviews of The Ghost Breakers

DVD Review: Extremely pleasing to watch!
Summary: 5 Stars

I have watched this movie many times over a period of years. Bob Hope is at his best, and Paulette Goddard is beautiful and spunky! The dialogue is crisp and memorable. The plot and characters unfold perfectly. The clothing, furniture and architecture is the real stuff for the late 30's, including Edith Head gowns and even one hidden photo of a Varga painting. See the use of shadow to create three visual objects per scene, especially those with Willie Best. Just a super, very enjoyable movie!

DVD Review: Thanks for the memories...
Summary: 4 Stars

What a fun movie! Years before Ghost Busters and the PC world of today. Hope is too funny in his laid back way. Off to Cuba to save the day! His efforts are funny, his timing excellent, and his fellow cast members make for a great adventure of giggles! So suspend your PC values and take it for what it was...pre-WWII humor with a wink at the supernatural!

DVD Review: One Of Hope's Funniest
Summary: 4 Stars

This is one of my few Bob Hope "keepers," not that I didn't like the man; I just found most of his movies somewhat corny. However, as silly as this one is, it's also very funny and very entertaining.....and that's the name of that tune, as "Baretta" used to say.

The story moves fast, which tells you it's entertaining, and has a good mixture of comedy, drama, horror and romance. Paulette Goddard is a very attractive, likable female lead and Willie West provides a lot of laughs as Hope's valet-friend. Yes, his role is degrading if you're a black person, so a warning to those who would be very offended at seeing that.

All in all, a movie that a lot other folks would agree is one of Hope's funniest films.
