Reaction: Dramas tend to not travel well and this is no different with the foreign gross being less than half of the domestic box office. The film thankfully didn't cost a lot, which minimized the losses.
"While I'm not a fan of how the film was formatted, each story Ghost Town has to tell is deeply engrossing thanks to a strong script and smart casting. Ladies and gentlemen, Ghost Town is hands down the film to beat for Best Ensemble Cast at the next Golden Reel Awards." - Desmond Rogers, TIME Magazine
"Ghost Town is a very timely film, but it's also an incredibly moving film. The film is populated by characters that feel lived-in, with real lives and real hopes and dreams." - Paul Landon, Film School Rejects
"The jumping back and forth makes it a little difficult to get your bearings each time, but each segment of the film is so strong it more than makes up for it. The characters and their emotional journeys are highly affecting." - Audrey Columbus, Collider
Rated R for some language, violence and thematic material.
