Alicia I love this movie so much

Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

sandlot1992 One thing I would say about this that I totally hate this movie after seeing it back as a kid, this movie was by far the worst, with a stupid story, forgettable characters including some stars in this stinker including Steve Guttenberg, Lori Loughlin, Michael McKean, Richard Moll, Sherman Hemsley of the Jeffersons, Ben Stein as a Grocer, Edie McClurg as the Libraian, Pauly Shore as the voice of Snivel, James Earl Jones as the voice of Kibosh and of course Rodney Dangerfield as the Mayor of Deedstown, terrible cgi of Casper and the other ghost look like something Pixar was animated at the time back when they did commercials and went on to make Toy Story, but more like something right out a PlayStation 2 game back when the first PlayStation console was around in the mid and late 90s, Saban Entertainment was behind this when they we're the ones that brought us Power Rangers and even Beetleborgs since they're some Beetleborgs stuff in Chris' bedroom including the X-files as well and some of the songs aren't that great though! so instead i'm sticking with the original Casper movie from 1995 which is my Halloween Tradition so far and it isn't over yet when somebody ends up buying a copy of Casper: a spirited beginning either both VHS or DVD and smash it with a Sledge Hammer, just like with George Lucas who would track down bootleg copies of the Star Wars Holiday Special!

CmHowell99 I have this video at home and watch it around Halloween time. Anyway Tim and Mayor Johnny Hunt plan to tear down Applegate Mansion. This makes Tim's son Chris upset. And Chris's teacher Ms. Fistagraph leads a rally to save Applegate Mansion. Ms. Lyons Tim's assistant helps him find out that Chris's teacher is the one behind this rally to save Applegate Mansion. Foreman Dave is the guy that Tim hires at first to tear down Applegate Mansion but Dave and his crew quit due to the appearance by three ghosts so he hires Bill Case. Then Casper accidentaly missed Spook School. Chris befriends Casper and the Ghostly Trio ther'e names are: Stretch, Stinky, And Fatso. So Kibosh and his sidekick Snivel go on a quest to find Casper, Stretch, Stinky, And Fatso. Then there's Brock and his friends who are always picking on Chris then of course there's Principal Rabie the laughing stock of Chris's School.

Willow192 I have to admit, that I did like Casper. But I hated this movie. I think it premiered on FOX Family or something. It's going back to before the first Casper. This is the most horrible remake I have ever seen. It seems like one of those made for FOX Family movies. The little kid playing Chris Carson is a horrible actor. He practically screams out his lines and sounds like he is reading from cue cards the whole time. Steve Guttenburg, who's career can be summed up as dead alive, was extremely mediocre in this movie. But hey, if Hollywood bigshots won't take you, you can at least display you 'talent' on movies like this, that are corny enough to feed all of the starving people in China. The redeeming character was Lori Loughlan, who was the only person on 'Full House' that I could stand. But she couldn't save this movie. The most insulting part in the movie is when the little ugly girl from 'Big Bad Beetle Borgs' (ewww) jumps into Chris's arms in fear, and Chris says "Casper, I like the effect you on on people!". CORNY! I hated the way the ghosts looked...and how the exceeded the normal amount of obnoxiousness. Don't watch this movie. Avoid it at all costs. It's nothing special. Score: 1 out of 10.

rick armstrong This is by far one of the best kiddie movies ever to come out of Hollywood. How can you watch this movie and not fall in love with that adorable little ghost. Anytime CASPER is appearing in a new movie, you will see me first in line to make this little ghost a little richer!
