Lynne Heffley Los Angeles Times The potential for fun goes mostly unrealized, diluted by an overdose of the teens' worldly cynicism and a misguided attempt to add depth with trite armchair psychology. Sep 10, 2019 Full Review Kat Halstead Common Sense Media Zany ghost adventure deals with death and the afterlife. Rated: 3/5 May 16, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Jeffrey M The Scream Team was a bad movie. I watched it kind of a long time ago, so I slightly forget it, but I remember it was kind of boring. The Scream Team is one of my " random " Disney+ movies. The Scream Team was a not so good movie. What a bad movie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/03/23 Full Review Rosana B Os efeitos são tipo "Oi?!?!?!?", mas o filme é tão fofo, adoro lendas urbanas de cidadezinhas do interior, fantasmas bonzinho e malvadinhos, criancinhas/adolescentes carismáticas, família feliz unida, trilha sonora de fantasmas… Tudo mito bonitinho, recheado de aventura e piadinhas bobinhas, coloridinho, engraçadinho e fofinho... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/26/22 Full Review Audience Member I watch a lot of Disney Channel movies late at night, so perhaps I can be forgiven when I mix them up. Or maybe it's because this is the first of several films where some motherless or fatherless kids move to or visit a new town where a relative was involved in the supernatural and must deal with it themselves. Seeing as how there's no Debbie Reynolds or Mr. Boogedy in this, I would assume that we're watching The Scream Team, but you can also think that maybe this is Beetlejuice. At least this has the talents of Eric Idle, Tommy Davidson and Kathy Najimy as the ghosts who help those in the afterlife cross over. They even have a waiting room just like the aforementioned Tim Burton classic. This is also an early role for Kat Dennings, who plays Claire Carlyle, who is joined by her brother Ian in learning exactly why their grandfather can't move on from this plane of existence. This was a pilot for a series, but this episode is pretty much all you get. If you like this type of supernatural fun that's safe for kids, trust me, there's so much more on DIsney+. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member A very intriguing premise but other than this everything seems to not connect the charm in the movie quickly gets drowned out by the thinly written plot and uneven characters. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member This Halloween movie was alright! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member This film is enjoyable and extremely funny.
