It's a good little ghost story, but disappointing if your expecting a movie more closely based on Oscar Wilde's story. The original story is a clever satire with a much more interesting reason for the ghost being trapped in the house. The basic frame of the story remains, but it's been made family friendly and polished up to be a feel good film that won't offend anyone. That said it is a good funny ghost story, and not scary so you can watch it with your kids.
