Critic Reviews

  • Jeffrey M. Anderson, Combustible Celluloid

    I have remained fond of Heart and Souls, despite its annoying power to leave not a dry eye in the house.

  • Steve Crum, Video-Reviewmaster.com

    Nice ensemble fantasy-comedy with Robert Downey.

  • Nell Minow, Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies

    A terrific cast helps to make less-than terrific material work.

  • Alex Sandell, Juicy Cerebellum

    Sappy and overly sentimental. I still liked it, for some reason.

  • Bob Bloom, Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)

    A touching, sentimental little piece of fluff.

    Probably the most bizarre normal movie i've ever come in contact with. It has some truly nutty and flat out weird moments, but when you have a ghost premise it all becomes subjective as to what you should expect. Robert Downey Jr. really doesn't get the credit he deserves… More

    Robert Downey, Jr. Lyte. A cute but unexceptional offering from the director of <i>Tremors</i> and <i>City Slickers</i>.

  • Leigh R


    Funny and so moving in the end. Great cast and, did I mention, funny.

  • Jason S


    A good flick. The comedy is there and all the characters work well together. Downey is fun

  • Dean M


    I love this sentimental fantasy follows the misadventures of Robert Downey Jr., who, at the moment of his birth, is "adopted" by a quartet of ghosts. Really exciting and funny while Downey Jr. is able to communication with four spirits who are asking for help.
