Casper Meets Wendy Family Fun Edition



Takes me back to the days of the annual Halloween special!
"Casper Meets Wendy" is the fun-filled story of everyone's favorite friendly ghost, Casper, and his very first encounter with Wendy the good little witch! When sweet little Wendy finds herself the target of an evil warlock's scheme to stay on top of the witchcraft game, she and her nasty aunts must hideout at a sunny vacation resort. To their ghost-hating dismay, it's the same resort where Casper and his uncles are spending a relaxing vacation away from the grind of their daily scaring routine. Wendy and Casper quickly realize they are kindred spirits and become fast friends, but their relatives will have no part in it. They'll all have to learn to work together though, once the wicked Desmond Spellman's goons pinpoint their location.

Fresh off the heels of "Casper: A Spirited Beginning," family-friendly director Sean McNamara does himself one better in his second Casper outing, this time going for a stellar cast and all-out wackiness! The result should thrill the younger...

Hilary Duff
Four words, I love Hilary Duff.

Even though Hilary was only 11 yrs old in this movie she was a great actress. This was the second movie she did. She just looks so cute as Wendy and she was a great choice and I love the story that she tells about when she was on set and there was a goat there named Meaner and they were shooting a scene and the director kept yelling Meaner Meaner and Hilary thought he was talking to her so she made a mean face and tried to be meaner and that story makes me laugh every time.

I recommend this to anyone who loves a good family movie. I am a little older then Hilary is now but I remember watching this when I was younger and just loved it and I still consider it one of my favorites.

Just keep doing what you do best Hilary, because you Rock!!!!

Still Entertains Me
Being 16, I have lived through the first Casper and the horrid sequels. While I think that the first Casper mildly creeped me out when I was younger, and that majority of the sequels following that were horrible, I think that making Casper Meets Wendy was a great recovery for the creators of the original Casper. Bringing together well-known older actresses was a great choice, making it entertaining to see them in such whimsical roles, while Hilary Duff did a great job on one of her first acting jobs. While some of the one-liners may leave you rolling your eyes, it is a great childrens movie and will keep parents entertained as well.
