Mostly Ghostly: Who Let the Ghosts Out? is a fun and lighthearted family film that tells the story of a young boy named Max (Sterling Beaumon), who's struggling to fit in at school, but has a secret talent for magic tricks. Max is determined to impress Traci, the popular girl at school, with his magic skills, but they don't seem to be working. However, Max soon discovers that his magic act is no match for the real ghosts that haunt his house.

Max is shocked when he meets two friendly ghosts, Nicky and Tara, who are trapped in his home and need his help to return back to the world of the living. Max is hesitant at first, but he quickly finds himself caught up in their quest, as it becomes clear that the ghosts are not quite what they seem.

As Max and his friends try to help Nicky and Tara, they soon realize that the ghosts' presence in Max's home is no accident. There's a sinister force at work that's determined to keep Nicky and Tara from returning to the world of the living, and Max and his friends must race against time to solve the mystery and save the ghosts from their fate.

The film is full of fun and quirky characters, including Max's best friend, Cammy (Madison Pettis), and Nicky's mischievous ghostly brother, Colin (Adam Hicks). The adult cast is also great, with Luke Benward and Brian Stepanek playing Max's older brother and father, respectively. David DeLuise and Kim Rhodes play Max's parents, and Ali Lohan and Sabrina Bryan both make appearances as Traci's friends.

The special effects and set design in Mostly Ghostly: Who Let the Ghosts Out? are impressive, and the film has a genuine sense of whimsy and wonder that will appeal to kids and adults alike. There are plenty of spooky moments, but the movie doesn't take itself too seriously and never becomes too scary for younger viewers.

It's refreshing to see a kids' movie that's not afraid to tackle some darker themes, like death and loss, while still remaining fun and entertaining. Max's relationship with Nicky and Tara is especially touching, as he learns to embrace his own unique abilities and helps the ghosts find a sense of closure and peace.

Overall, Mostly Ghostly: Who Let the Ghosts Out? is a charming and fun family film that's perfect for a spooky movie night. The cast is great, the special effects are impressive, and the story is engaging and heartwarming. It's a great movie for kids who love ghosts and magic, and parents will appreciate its positive messages about friendship and family.
