Viewing Notes

Truth be told I didn’t remember much about BEETLEJUICE; it’s probably been twenty years since I’ve seen it. Things here and there would pop up in memory now and again but that’s about it. And, after twenty years, I was kind of disappointed.

Frankly, there’s just not enough of Beetlejuice himself for a movie named after him; he doesn’t even really show up until the second half. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a decent movie, enjoyable and quite original; it just didn’t resonate with me as much as I remember.
