Ricky Gervais stars as a dentist who dies for seven minutes before he is revived. However, once he’s back in the real world he quickly finds out he now has the ability to interact with ghosts that apparently only exist to annoy him. He’s particularly hounded by a recently deceased man (Greg Kinnear) that wants to to use him to break up his widow (Tea Leoni) and her new man. It’s a fine movie with Ricky Gervais generating most of the humor in his usual awkward and annoyed zingers. I also need to give a shout-out to supporting actress Kristen Wiig (Saturday Night Live, Knocked Up) who continues to nail her comedic timing and delivery. Don’t go out of your way to see Ghost Town, but there are laughs here if you catch it.
