Top critics, in their words
The greatest distinction of "Ghost World" is its singular spirit. Here's a dark, deadpan comedy about alienated kids that manages to be smart, surpassingly odd, extremely funny and mysteriously endearing at the same time.
See it for Birch's hostile stare and Johansson's devastating monotone.
Most of Ghost World is funny, but the laughs are inextricably tied to the painful alienation and self-loathing that comes with living on society's fringes.
By sharp turns poignant, disturbing and hysterically funny.
Zwigoff pulls off something in Ghost World that seems a minor miracle -- he creates someone with a complex inner life.
