What Parents Need to Know
About Casper
Parents need to know that the cartoon Casper and other Casper movies are much milder than this one. There are deaths here and much talk about the spirit world and grieving the loss of parents. The main character, Kat, sees one parent as a ghost, and another parent dies and comes back with the help of an invention. Kat also has a crush on Casper, who died as a tween boy. Casper's ghost uncles can be crude and mischievous and they take Kat's father out drinking at a bar.

Lives in New YorkI rate this title iffy for age 11 and give itcould have been better
it starts out cute, but there's plenty of violence and bad language. towards the end of the movie, the villain screams out, "you b--ch!!" (referring to a female dog).
