Lynne Heffley Los Angeles Times 09/10/2019
The potential for fun goes mostly unrealized, diluted by an overdose of the teens' worldly cynicism and a misguided attempt to add depth with trite armchair psychology. Go to Full Review

Jeffrey M @RT01695930 08/03/2023 The Scream Team was a bad movie. I watched it kind of a long time ago, so I slightly forget it, but I remember it was kind of boring. The Scream Team is one of my " random " Disney+ movies. The Scream Team was a not so good movie. What a bad movie. See more Rosana B @RosanaBotafogo 11/26/2022 Os efeitos são tipo "Oi?!?!?!?", mas o filme é tão fofo, adoro lendas urbanas de cidadezinhas do interior, fantasmas bonzinho e malvadinhos, criancinhas/adolescentes carismáticas, família feliz unida, trilha sonora de fantasmas… Tudo mito bonitinho, recheado de aventura e piadinhas bobinhas, coloridinho, engraçadinho e fofinho... See more 07/25/2021 I watch a lot of Disney Channel movies late at night, so perhaps I can be forgiven when I mix them up. Or maybe it's because this is the first of several films where some motherless or fatherless kids move to or visit a new town where a relative was involved in the supernatural and must deal with it themselves. Seeing as how there's no Debbie Reynolds or Mr. Boogedy in this, I would assume that we're watching The Scream Team, but you can also think that maybe this is Beetlejuice. At least this has the talents of Eric Idle, Tommy Davidson and Kathy Najimy as the ghosts who help those in the afterlife cross over. They even have a waiting room just like the aforementioned Tim Burton classic. This is also an early role for Kat Dennings, who plays Claire Carlyle, who is joined by her brother Ian in learning exactly why their grandfather can't move on from this plane of existence. This was a pilot for a series, but this episode is pretty much all you get. If you like this type of supernatural fun that's safe for kids, trust me, there's so much more on DIsney+. See more 06/13/2021 A very intriguing premise but other than this everything seems to not connect the charm in the movie quickly gets drowned out by the thinly written plot and uneven characters. See more 10/26/2015 This Halloween movie was alright! See more 09/30/2014 This film is enjoyable and extremely funny. See more Read all reviews
