Ghost Cat

This is a simple children's movie with all the classic Disneyesque components, evil nephew trying to get his hands on his late aunts estate, kind hearted woman trying to save all the animals and implants from the big city relocating to "start over". It's not that great - I only watched it because of the cat - the acting was rather wooden and although i was fooled by the New York licence plates, my instincts were still good - it was Canadian, wooden - why is it that we Canucks can do brutal stuff well like 'life after billy' and the story of the Christian Brothers abuse, but we do general stuff so badly - I'm not sure if it's just poor directing (after all we have great canadian actors who go on to make in in other milieus) Anyway, simple stuff for kids, no one ends up dead (except the ghosts of course!)

A simple little movie involving a cat that dies and then becomes a ghost ... our ghostly cat heroically saves the day when the evil villains try to destroy an animal shelter ... this movie is easy, mindless entertainment for all ages.

This was a good kids movie i like its fun movie and cute Eliot page does a good job at acting in this movie, but the DVD cover plot says they are at the fight for survival and the trailer looks like a horror movie it's not a horror movie it's just a kid's movie everybody did a good job at acting likeable characters good story not the DVD cover story, but the actual story was good.i like it the movie was cute watch it have a fun time with this fun family mystery drama kids movie not horror but just have fun with the movie if youre a movie buff you will like it watch it add it to your collecting.

Wes Merritt (Michael Ontkean) and his daughter Natalie (Ellen Page) get more than they bargained for when they buy an old house that was formerly inhabited by the nice old Mrs. Ashboro and her pet cat, Margaret. When strange things start happening in the house, all fingers point to the presence of Margaret, who died the same day as Mrs. Ashboro. But why has she come back to haunt them?

Trying to call this a "horror" film is something of a stretch, as it really falls more into a "family mystery" category. Having been made by Animal Planet, it has something of a TV vibe and is quite family friendly. There is, in fact, a ghost cat, and it does somehow happen to claw people from beyond the grave.

The casting is decent, bringing a post-"Twin Peaks" Ontkean together with a pre-"Juno" Page (who would have thought she would get big after seeing this film?). Everyone else is largely unknown (although, to be fair, they were probably all largely unknown at the time).

Great film? Definitely not. Good family fun, yes, certainly.

The acting was good the story was good the cinematography was ok but this is a good movie Ellen page did a great job at acting the mystery side story was good but I wished they had a little more of the mystery side story some people call this a horror movie I don't know Why. In the movie the cat was a good character the trailer makes you think it's a horror movie which it's not it a really enjoyable movie the acting great the story is good people who love mystery movies family movies and animal movies I don't know why this gets mixed reviews I know it's cheesy I hope this movie gets know more for what the movie is watch it.
