Is it possible to fall in love with someone who does not exist? When David (Ruffalo) moves in to a new apartment, he starts hallucinating about Elizabeth (Witherspoon) who keeps claiming the house to be hers. In reality, Elizabeth suffered from a tragic accident and is currently in a coma. Her spirit still lives inside her house and tries to chase away any tenants that try to live there. David recently lost his wife and is trying to get over her but finds it very hard. Elizabeth was far too involved in her work to worry about her personal life and hence she never could enjoy having a partner. David and Elizabeth somehow find a connection between themselves and realise that whatever they have missed or not been able to get over, they have found respite in each other. A very typical movie in most aspects, although the idea of falling in love with a ghost is slightly absurd. Mark Ruffalo seems to be a bit of a misfit and he just does not seem to cut the role of a heart-broken fanatic. Witherspoon tries her best but the movie is average-ish in most areas and not a very desirable watch.

Thumbs up: A decent all-rounder

Thumbs down: Mark Ruffalo was not up to it

Rating: 5.8/10
