Natasha Alvar The Fiction Department [Girl Haunts Boy] begins simply with a girl meeting a boy, and develops into a thoughtful film about the past and its continued impact on us in the present. Rated: 3.5/5 Nov 26, 2024 Full Review Lindsay Press Culturess While the idea of interacting with ghosts may feel like it is a movie to watch more around the Halloween season, Girl Haunts Boy is a film that could be enjoyable at any point of the year. Nov 6, 2024 Full Review Lissete Lanuza Sáenz Fangirlish Ghost stories are a dime a dozen. Ghost stories that are actually about grief, about love, and about the joy that can be found, even in dark times, when someone else really, truly sees you, are very rare indeed. Oct 29, 2024 Full Review Stephanie Malone Morbidly Beautiful "Girl Haunts Boy" is a surprisingly emotional, feel-good flick with a sprinkling of spooky and a wallop of well-realized character drama. It's a cozy Fall treat eager to envelop you in its warmth and tenderness. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 23, 2024 Full Review Kristen Maldonado Pop Culture Planet If you like your spooky movies with a more wholesome vibe, you don’t want to miss Girl Haunts Boy. Cimino anchors the ghostly romance with his charm and warmth, while List brings a free-spirited wit to her role. Oct 22, 2024 Full Review Tania Lamb Lola Lambchops Girl Haunts Boy can be slow, but List and Cimino add a lot of heart and warmth to a story that helps heal the broken.

Audience Member PG films are meant to be simple, and easy to follow. They capture what it is to be a child, teenager and sometimes adult. Girl Haunts Boy is brilliant because it showcases grief and loneliness that follow a tragedy. Bea I believe represents what we want, but cannot have following tragedy. Cole is lonely, and Bea saves him from that, and yet we learn through the movie that Bea deserves to be free, and Cole needs to grieve. Although it may be cheesy, I personally cried for the last thirty minutes of the film, because accepting the truth versus wanting the opposite are framed in the film. Peyton List and Michael Cimino both have excellent performances, and this movie deserves a rewatch. I hope more PG films can be appreciated for their complexity, just like this one.

It was amazing Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/25 Full Review Dylan P At one point, a character said "how do you know?" Five stars. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/01/25 Full Review Toggo U It was great until the ending. Not sure why the director decided to go for a bittersweet ending, when it could have ended so much better. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/25 Full Review Tanith P Oh my goodness!!!!! Girl Haunts Boy on Netflix is the best movie I’ve watched in years!!!! If anyone is wanting to watch something refreshing I highly recommend this movie! 💖 The preview doesn’t do this movie justice . Girl Haunts Boy is deep but light, old timey but new, paranormal but not dark or weird, and romantic but not inappropriate. Soooo good!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/25 Full Review Omar F Susie Q meets The Great Gastby. It’s a fun story. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/29/24 Full Review Read all reviews
