INTERNATIONAL RELEASE DATES CONFIRMED: UK RELEASE DATE 24 OCTOBER - US RELEASE DATE 19 SEPTEMBER 2008 Spain - Oct 3, Sweden - Oct 3, Belgium - Oct 8, France - Oct 8, Mexico - Oct 10, Australia - Oct 23, Netherlands - Oct 23, Germany - Nov 13, Denmark - Nov 28, Finland - Nov 28, Russia - Dec 11 In Ghost Town, Ricky plays misanthropic Bertram Pincus, who dies temporarily whilst under the knife. His thump with mortality yields a phantasmic if not fantastic consequence; Pincus gains the ability to perceive the ghostly remains of the deceased. He is not happy about this as they are apt to bother him. One in particular needs Pincus's to help break up the impending nuptials of his widow and her no-good paramour.

Obsessed With Film makes Ghost Town one of its films of the year Matt Holmes writes: GHOST TOWN - Man, I was so ready to hate it but those Ricky Gervais re-writes, he aimed for Capra and he made a movie at least as good as Bill Murray's SCROOGED. That's a big compliment. I said all I wanted to about this movie here. Can't wait to see Gervais' THIS SIDE OF THE TRUTH which should be one of 2009's best. |

Some more nice words about Ghost Town "The long time in coming leading role of legendary Brit writer/director/actor/ comedian Ricky Gervais, is surprisingly good, free from the shackles of slapstick, decidedly more "com than rom" and with a sweet and charming side that will get even the most cynical enchanted." - Matt Holmes, www.obsessedwithfilm.com "'Ghost Town' has inspired casting, a few memorable scenes, and enough laughs for mainstream US audiences to finally get the point of that doughy English guy with the pointy canine teeth and the high-pitched giggle." - Dana Stevens, www.slate.com "Despite an awkward start, 'Ghost Town' quickly establishes itself as a kooky romantic drama about redemption that trades well on Gervais's winning comedy persona, as well as stretching his acting abilities in an interesting new direction." - Jack Foley, www.indielondon.co.uk |
