If you are looking for a pretty good family movie then watch Ghost Dad. Ghost Dad stars Bill Cosby. You probably will remember him from The Cosby Show. This movie came out in 1990 so it even has the tagline "America's Favorite Dad in a Spirited Comedy." You really think Bill Cosby is going to make people want to see this movie? Remember in 1986 he started in Lenoard Part 6 which currently only gets an IMDb rating of 2.2. That movie is in the bottom #100 of movies.
Ghost dad is about this widowed father who is raising 3 kids. He ends up in taxi cab with a crazy driver and eventually ends up dying. Instead of really dying now is he floating around and ends up in lab of a scientist who studies the paranormal. He asks the scientist to send him back so he can finish this business deal and make sure his kids are well taken care of.
Parts of this movie are really funny. Things like Bill Cosby's head popping out of a telephone receiver. I wasn't sure if this movie could be good. It seemed like a stupid idea. There were some small problems with this movie. There were some things that didn't seem believable. In the beginning of the movie the father could have died on a runaway elevator. Is that suppose to add something to the movie? They had to make the neighbor kid this rich snob who talks about all these great worldly possessions he has. Yeah, let's only show people who are well off in this movie.
