Ghost Town
Finally Gervais does it. . . - LydsLizzie
For too long have I waited for Ricky Gervais to really lead a movie and eventually I got my wish. Fairly enough, I was slightly uneasy about the plot line that seemed a little too unoriginal but once the film began, my worries evaporated. Playing a cynical, introverted dentist, Gervais keeps the laughter continuously flowing throughout and never fails to disappoint. When he realises he can see dead people, and they in return discover a link to the living, Gervais is incessantly harassed by the deceased. Throwing out witty, pesimistic remarks and filling nearly ever scene with hilarity, this movie is a definite must-see, especially if anyone needed cheering up.

All the reviews led me to believe that this would be an above average romcom but how wrong they were. This is a gem of a film that readily invites comparisons with classics with a hard comedy centre... MORE

Very Clever - Wayne
This is one of Ricky's better works as a funny-man. Being an anti-social dentist seems to suit him so well, and he reacts brilliant to all situations he's faced with in the movie. Full of clever... MORE

These film stars Ricky Gervais in his first lead role in a film and it so much better than one night at the museum which is where I last saw him. The film is about Pinkus played by Gervais who is a... MORE
