Just Like Heaven (*3/4)


In this silly Reese Witherspoon-Mark Ruffalo romantic comedy, a handsome duo find themselves sharing a San Francisco flat. She shrewishly insists he’s trespassing, while he insists she’s actually dead. Sound amusing? The dumb first half finds him buying stacks of books and hiring ghostbusters (complete with theme music) and such to get rid of her. I noticed one woman a few rows behind me wildly cackling at such lines as “Who put Sponge Bob in the pasta?” The second half goes all gushy but is a relative improvement.
