Review of The Haunted Mansion (2003)

By Todd Gilchrist (762) for FilmStew.com (638) on 26 Nov 2003

By Sean Axmaker (1,564) for Seattle Post-Intelligencer (2,422) on 25 Nov 2003

Review of The Haunted Mansion (2003)

By Leslie Katz (26) for culturevulture.net (793) on 25 Nov 2003

Makes things look good and whips up a heck of a chase scene [but] misses the emotional foundation, the single essential element of any movie…

By Eric D. Snider (2,489) for EricDSnider.com (2,026) on 25 Nov 2003

Review of The Haunted Mansion (2003)

By Richard Von Busack (346) for MetroActive (325) on 25 Nov 2003

A dispirited, so to speak, adaptation of the best ride at Disneyland. As such, it's one more treasured piece of your childhood mangled on screen…

Review of The Haunted Mansion (2003)

By Rob Vaux (1,125) for Flipside Movie Emporium (617) on 24 Nov 2003
