Shortly after David Abbott moves into his new San Francisco digs, he has an unwelcome visitor on his hands: winsome Elizabeth Masterson, who asserts that the apartment is hers -- and promptly vanishes.

Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
See two charming characters make beautiful music together.

fresh:
Starts out glib and gimmicky but later digs surprisingly deep.

fresh:
It's corny, it's somewhat predictable, but it's also very sweet, it's funny.

rotten:
Closer to hell, really.

rotten:
Just Like Heaven is really nothing more than your standard love-from-beyond-the-grave squishfest (even though the heroine isn't actually dead) done up in the dumb bonnet-and-bloomers get-up of contemporary romantic comedy.
