Derek L Whilst the Ghosts of Buxley Hall does contain outdated themes and tropes, it was still carried out by likable characters that shown some decent degree of development. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Bruce Bilson also directed the Disney movie The North Avenue Irregulars, which I certainly saw at some point at the drive-in, possibly with The Love Bug or The Apple Dumpling Gang. When the century old Buxley Military Academy falls on hard times, it has to merge with a school for girls, which angers the ghosts who haunte the academy, General Eulace C. Buxley (Dick O'Neill), Bettina Buxley (Louise Latham) and Sergeant Major Chester B. Sweet (Victor French). As the boys learn to live with the girls, the ghosts declare war on everyone — but in a totally fun and non-frightening way. I kind of love Posie, who shows up in female empowerment t-shirts and tells the adults how dumb they are for most of the movie. The ghosts come around — even if seeing a black cadet blows their minds — and all ends well. It's a non-threatening, not all that interesting Disney for kids ghost movie, but if thats your thing, well — here it is. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member It was a cute movie, but it was awfully boring at times. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review s r Cheesy, but we all like it. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member A lackluster television movie with a poor plot and uninteresting characters. It was somewhat watchable, but still below the standards I have for a Disney feature. (First and only viewing - 1/27/2016) Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Before Hannah Montana.. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
