Lush production design and sparkling special effects makeThe Haunted Mansionpretty to look at. Terence Stamp (The Limey), as a malevolent ghost of a butler, provides a suitable air of menace as dematerializes to and fro. Marsha Thomason (Black Knight) is lovely as a real estate agent hired to sell a haunted mansion, but in truth the ghostly owner of the mansion believes she is the reincarnation of his lost love. Wallace Shawn (My Dinner with Andre) and Dina Waters (Six Feet Under) make a modestly amusing comic pair as a ghostly husband and wife who bustle about. Jennifer Tilly (Bound), as a green disembodied head in a crystal ball, glitters appropriately. The movie also features endless clichés, futile attempts at humor, and Eddie Murphy. If you're looking for a movie based on a Disneyland ride, try the very cleverPirates of the Caribbeaninstead.--Bret Fetzer
A fun movie This movie is Based on one of my favirte rides at disney world.Murphey is great in the film he is a father who is obsests with his work.His wife is then told to sell a mansion.
Disney- WHY these people?? This movie had the potential of being great, but now there is no going back. Why was this family used in the film? I cannot relate to these guys for the time period or situation. We are avid annual passport holders and live in pirates and haunted mansion ride. I am completely crushed at the way this film turned out and what could have been. Pirates of the Caribbean was awesome thanks to Depp and creepy Rush. See that first.Silly nonsense Silly nonsense. This was another painful experience. Almost every part of this film (aside from the special effects), is horrible. I would not recomend it as family viewing. Unless you don't mind your children seeing it, they might enjoy it, but there are some very frightening scenes, and, although there isn't any foul language or nudity, there really is nothing redeeming about it. NOTE: The special features are much better than the movie. ** Two Stars
