FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://thatshelf.com/we-have-a-ghost-review/

"We Have a Ghost holds a fun concept and a charming cast, but Christopher Landon disappoints with a disjointed, overlong, easily forgettable story. The incessant attempts to approach various subject matters through different genres destroy a screenplay that garnered attention for the simplicity of its premise, but which ends up becoming an unnecessarily complex mess without any idea of what it wants to be. Wasting David Harbour as a non-speaking ghost is one of many questionable creative decisions in this hard-to-remember Netflix film."
