| Mine: |
A sad movie. Peter O'Toole is a great actor, but here is just pathetic. Nothing to recommend this one.

| Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
Two yuppie stereotypes and a pair of 200-year-old ghosts romp around in an Irish castle threatened with foreclosure, with O'Toole--looking a bit ghostly here himself--playing ring master. Head-splitting farce full of collapsing sets and lots of wind-machine action; cast members complained that film's producers crudely altered the original whimsical intentions of writer-director Jordan. Unbearable.
