Saturday Movie Night: Ghost Town

We are big movie buffs around here.  Saturday nights are usually take-out Chinese and Red Box movie nights.   Lately, however, it's been getting harder and harder to find good movies.  We've been resorting to replaying old favorites again and again.  In an attempt to help promote the good,  I've decided to dedicate Saturdays to sharing my favorite movies.  I'd love to hear what your favorites are as well - we really need some new flicks to add to the line-up!

Today's pick is Ghost Town.  This is one of those feel-good movies.  It stars Ricky Gervais, Tea Leoni, and Greg Kinnear.  I love a good comedy, and this one has some laugh-out loud parts.  The best thing about this movie, however, is the underlying message of the importance of taking just a minute to look out for those around us.  So many times we go about our business not noticing the ancillary people we encounter.  Often, a small gesture or a kind word can mean more than we will ever know.  Lighthearted movie with some depth - what could be better for Saturday night viewing?   Pop some popcorn and enjoy!!   (air popper or on the stove with real butter and sea salt of course ;-)

If you want to check the appropriateness for the family, Kids in Mind gives it a 4, 3, 5
