Story: Obviously, the story itself isn't anything new. I do like that it had a few differences though, so I scored it a bit higher. The little ghost girl added a much needed comedy aspect, and she was absolutely adorable, so she was definitely one of my favorite additions. I also liked that the female died in this one as opposed to the male in the 1990 film. I think it would've been a little boring to have that part the same, so that got it some points from me.
The speed with which it was told wasn't too bad. The first 20 minutes or so feels a bit slow at times, and their final goodbye was really drawn out. I would've liked it if that had been shorter. Everything else in between felt like it was sailing along smoothly though.
Acting/Cast: It's hard to comment on the chemistry between everybody. A lot of the scenes had Matsushima Nanako in them, and since she's supposed to be dead throughout most of the film, it's difficult to critique that part. As a whole though, it didn't feel too bad. I did enjoy their interactions while watching.
Song Seung Hun. Anybody who knows me knows that I'm pretty much in love with this man and that he can do absolutely no wrong in my eyes. Now then, bias aside, I did like his acting. He had me shedding a few tears at times, and that's always a good quality to have. I loved listening to him speak Japanese as well. I'm so used to hearing him speak Korean that it was a nice switch.
Matsushima Nanako. Other than this, I've only ever seen her in 'Hana Yori Dango.' I loved her in that show, and I loved her in this movie. She's definitely high up on my list of Japanese actresses right now.
Kiki Kirin. It was hard for me to watch this and not compare her to Whoopi Goldberg. Whoopi was what made the whole movie for me in the 1990 film, so it was hard to live up to the standards she had set for me. That said, I did love Kiki in this movie. She was hilarious.
Music: I've never liked 'Unchained Melody.' Since this is Ghost, it's obviously going to be played more than once throughout. If it wasn't for Ken Hirai's 'Aishiteru,' I'd probably score this category a lot lower.
Other than those two songs, I don't remember any of the music if there was any.
Rewatch Value: I wouldn't be against watching this a second time.
Overall: Overall, it wasn't a horrible movie, but it wasn't a gem of a movie either. It was stuck somewhere in the middle. Like I said earlier, the beginning seemed slow at parts, and the end kind of dragged. I feel like if it weren't for the actors that played the lead characters in this movie, I would've had a hard time finishing it.
