Title: Fun, but ultimately irrelevant addition to the Casper saga
Review: It's a shame that the makers of Casper movies have apparently decided to release all the new episodes straight to video. In this case, the standard the creators set for their work is clearly way too low; the result is a terribly straightforward, disappointing tale that is usually funny and full of hilarious wordplays but totally lacks any hidden meanings or subtlety that almost seemed to have become a trademark of the series after the first two movies. The series seems to have become somewhat exhausted, and the creators seem to desperately lack new ideas. Consequently, the third movie looks too much like a the first one, only not as inspired. If the Casper legacy is to continue in the future, it absolutely needs to go in some new direction, because the old one is clearly not enough at this point.
Is the review positive or negative?
