Fine rom-com
30 August 2014
Elizabeth Masterson (Reese Witherspoon) is a hard charging San Francisco ER doctor. She is all about her job and she just got a promotion. Her sister sets her up on a date but a truck crashes into her. Landscape architect David Abbott (Mark Ruffalo) is a heart broken widower and moves into Elizabeth's old apartment. It turns out that her spirit is haunting the place and doesn't really know it. His best friend Jack (Donal Logue) doesn't believe him. Darryl (Jon Heder) runs the occult bookstore.

Witherspoon and Ruffalo are a great rom-com duo. They are charmingly combative which is great for passion. This is a light comedy with a romantic heart. Jon Heder is a fine wacky side character. It is funny and likable. It's a fine take on the rom-com formula.
