平常待人冷淡,刻意遠離人群的牙醫師Pincus（
Ricky Gervais）在一次身體檢查的手術過程中意外死亡了七分鐘,因此成為個擁有陰陽眼的他,開始受到許多紐約的鬼魂們騷擾,爭相要Pincus幫他們完成遺憾,受不了眾鬼魂的糾纏,Pincus勉強答應了
Greg Kinnear鬼魂的要求,幫他破壞遺孀的新戀情,Pincus這個超沒人緣的牙醫在面對許多陰魂不散的鬼也漸漸發展出了不同的人格... 電影的情節並不是什麼前無古人的大創新,但衝著這是
Ricky Gervais本人登上美國大螢幕的作品,說什麼也要看看! 結果也的確不是一般的"鬼魂完全遺願後順利升天"電影,除了
Ricky Gervais的嘲諷式無情碎碎唸增添了不少笑點,整部電影也有許多”默默嘲笑”歷年來鬼魂片的情節和台詞. 雖然說電影名稱是”
Ghost Town,” 但最重要的還是活著的人如何看待這些死去親友,我們對死者的情緒（不管正面或負面）都是綁著他們在這個世界的最後一條線,總要有個closure才會讓生者釋懷.
”
Ghost Town”的成功之處除了雖可預期卻不落俗套的劇情, 每個角色的深度和演員精彩的詮釋都讓觀眾深深著迷也放聲的開懷大笑. 還有一個讓我意外的驚奇處就是電影巧妙的用了
Beatles的"
I'm Looking Through You," 不但非常符合電影的笑點,用的還是電影中少見的
Beatles原版歌曲! 當然,片中美麗的紐約也是一大看點喔!

M. Ward and Zooey Deschanel seems to be the golden pair in indie music these days. After the huge success of She & Him, Deschanel appears in M. Ward's post-She & Him solo album Hold Time. The song "Never Had Nobody Like You" was actually not so much different from She & Him, we haven't hear the previously promised "heavy sound" yet, but the buzz around the album is enough to get me excied.
