Overview

Past and present collide when aimless slacker Hannah gets hired to portray Lady Wadsworth -- a Southern belle from the 1800s -- for tours at Wadsworth Manor. Hannah figures she can fake it well enough, until the ghost of Lady Wadsworth appears and tells her it's time to change her wild ways -- or she'll haunt her forever.

Ryan Phillippe sort of phoned it in didn't he? Which sucks, he's normally an OK actor but I guess he wasn't taking it seriously. Paycheck and all. Anyway, this is a family film made strictly for adults. If it wasn't for the drug use and language, it probably would have had a bigger audience. The adult content limited what would otherwise have been a great little G Comedy. Then again, the adult content is where they got the most laughs. It's not a great film, but it's not a woke film. It doesn't scream politics at the top of it's lungs and then rub your face in the mess it made. Instead it does its best to entertain, and because of that I'll give it 10 stars. I like movies that try to entertain me, I think we need more movies that just try to entertain. And because it tries to entertain, it's watchable. And watchable is a step above 90% of the trash coming out of Hollywood since 2016.
