Summary: Guttenberg's Finest
Comment: First of all, I'd like to state that my 2-star rating is based on how I would rate this movie compared to all major motion picture movies, typically catering to teens and adults. However, I'll admit that maybe that's not a fair rating, considering this movie was made for kids. As a kid's movie, and judging by how much my girls (ages 3 and 6) enjoyed it, I would give it a 4-star rating.
I mainly purchased this movie to get my girls pumped up for an upcoming trip to Disneyland. (I chose this one, because my 6-year old now meets the height requirement for the Tower of Terror ride in the California Adventure park.) I was sort of skeptical that this movie would capture the attention spans of a 3 and 6-year old for 100 minutes, but it was cheap and it had a sort of lame, kitchy appeal to me anyway, so I bought it. I underestimated how much my girls would enjoy it. Although their attention spans wandered a little during some of the boring parts, they both thoroughly enjoyed the movie, and begged to watch it again after it was over. (Sorry girls...Daddy's about gouge his eyes out.)
Now a word about the star of the movie...Steve Guttenberg. Guttenberg always seems to land all the hottest movies. He's like a magnet to cinematic masterpieces like Police Academy, Amazon Women on the Moon, Overdrive, Zeus and Roxanne, Casper: A Spirited Beginning,...the list goes on and on. Tower of Terror was his finest performance. He was absolutely horrible. Rock on Steve!

Summary: "I want to go to Disneyland now"
Comment: After watching this wonderful movie, I want to go to Disneyland to ride the Tower of Terror ride. My son just went and called me while he was on the ride. I was so jealous. This movie is great. Especially the big band feel of it. Love that era. Actors were great and I was in suspense till the end. Buy this movie!

Big-screen stars Steve Guttenberg (THREE MEN AND A LITTLE LADY) and Kirsten Dunst (DROP DEAD GORGEOUS, CRAZY/BEAUTIFUL) encounter a host of haunts in this delightfully spooky mystery! Buzzy Crocker (Guttenberg) is a hard-luck photojournalist whose unexpected encounter with an old woman leads him to investigate an unexplained, decades-old disappearance. It seems that one Halloween night, many years ago, five partygoers vanished in the elevator of the Hollywood Tower Hotel ... and ever since, their ghosts have remained trapped inside the dilapidated old building! In an action-filled story that delivers creepy fun for everyone, Buzzy ultimately teams with his niece (Dunst) to solve the mystery while managing to save their lives and capture the biggest story of the year!
