Ryan Phillippe, Melanie Lynskey, Judy Greer, and Justin Long in Lady of the Manor (2021)
Past and present collide in this supernaturally funny buddy comedy when stoner-slacker Hannah (Melanie Lynskey) is hired to portray Lady Wadsworth (Judy Greer), a Southern belle who died in 1875, in a tour at Wadsworth Manor. Hannah, a hot mess, figures she can fake it - until the ghost of Lady Wadsworth appears! Lady Wadsworth tells Hannah it's time to change her wild ways - and she'll haunt her until she does - in this hilarious movie costarring Justin Long and Ryan Phillippe.

    Good entertainment...

    The 2021 comedy "Lady of the Manor" actually proved to be more enjoyable and entertaining than I had initially expected it to be.

    The storyline told in "Lady of the Manor", as written by Christian Long and Justin Long, was actually rather enjoyable. This was the kind of story that just had a feel-good vibe to it, and it is one that puts the audience in a good mood too. So that was quite good. And it is a storyline that is easy to follow and has something to offer for audiences of all ages.

    The movie does have an interesting cast ensemble, with Melanie Lynskey (playing Hannah) and Judy Greer (playing Lady Wadsworth) in the lead roles. The movie also have the likes of Justin Long, Luis Guzmán, Patrick Duffy and Ryan Phillippe on the cast list. And it should be said that the actors and actresses in the movie definitely put on good performances in bringing the character to life on the screen.

    "Lady of the Manor" has a good amount of comedy to it, though it is not the type of comedy that will have you keeled over with tears streaking down your cheeks. The comedy was good and well-used to bolster the storyline.

    If you enjoy a good old feel-good comedy, then "Lady of the Manor" is definitely well worth a viewing.

    My rating of "Lady of the Manor" lands on a six out of ten stars.

    Some good laughs mixed with some more mediocre moments.

    Lady Of The Manor is a comedy so I expected to laugh when watching it. If I'm honest I did laugh with some scenes, quite a few ones, but the rest of the movie was sometimes a bit mediocre. I don't think Melanie Lynskey was the right person to play this role. There are some good names in the cast but I feel like there was better to do with this plot and cast. All in all the movie is worth a watch, there are funny passages and for that alone it was worth my time but it could have been better.

    Rachel Ray a million laughs

    Rented because Rachel Ray said she laughed a million times....must of been every time they said a four letter word....if you like four letter words to make a movie then this is for you...other than that a waste of time.

    Go Smoke your Opium, uh.. I mean Weed and Watch this Silly Movie! :D

    This movie was a VERY SILLY and Goofy story, but I love Melanie, Judy, Justin and all the rest of this cast together. They are just Silly Fun together and seems like they probably had a great time working on this movie.

    Judy did slip out of her Southern accent quite a bit, but I didn't care, she was adorable. And Melanie was just hilarious as a slacker trying to learn to be a lady. :D Is it Oscar worthy? NO! Is it for young kids? NO! (Has a lot of F-bombs) But is it stupid funny and worth a watch? Yes, if you like silly comedies. And/or are a fan of Melanie, Judy or Justin. :)

    Entertaining farce, the ghost just won't go away.

    My wife and I settled in to watch this movie, written by Justin Long and his brother Christian, on Amazon streaming movies. It is clear why this is available so soon on streaming. But after a rocky start it develops into a funny, entertaining farce. No one would term this a "great" movie but if the explicit foul language here and there doesn't bother you then it is a fun romp.

    Slacker lady is not a drug dealer, she just makes deliveries after someone else deals. But she isn't even good at that and gets busted when delivering, on bicycle, to the wrong address. But she gets an unexpected opportunity, to work as a guide through a historical home in Savannah (filmed in Florida). To her surprise the real Lady of the manor comes to her as a ghost from the 1800s.

    We should have rebuffed this movie, we should have turned it off after about 20 or 25 minutes. But we didn't and laughed often. Just a fluff of an entertaining farce. The outtakes shown as part of the end credits are some of the funniest of the whole movie. A solid "6" of 10.
