5.0 out of 5 stars Patrick Stewart makes a great ghost!, January 9, 2007
This is extremly well done. the scenery shots are magnificent. The story is a wonderful variation on several old ghost/haunting stories combined with a new twist. Great family film.

5.0 out of 5 stars the canterville ghost , October 11, 2007
By bugs bunny "ruthie" (carbondale, co) - See all my reviews
This is a great version, although I absolutely loved the one with Sir John Gielgud, he is fantastic, such a regal presence. Patrick Stewart, wasted his talents on the Star Trek series.
Wish they would put the Gielgud one out on DVD
