A pretty good family film - the effects (for the time) are quite good, and I don't think you can ever go wrong with Christina Ricci. It might not blow away your kids today, but it's still a solid choice as far as I'm concerned.

The story was good if only Casper had better character development. Bill Pullman and Christina Ricci were superb coupled with the charming screenplay. The special effects were realistic, unfortunately this didn't do well financially. Casper is a worthy family comedy that entertains.
