Ghostbusters (2016)

Such a frustrating disappointment

Sadly Over-hyped

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I just took it for what it was, a Ghostbuster movie. It was a fun throwback, with some interesting characters and electric visuals. It's a pity it was overshadowed by feminist and anti-feminist propaganda. I loved GB as a kid, and got the same feels this time around. I hope kids watching it today can do so without any influential bias. There's more to it than that. Get nerdy, bust the ghosts, have fun, be heroes!

It comes down to 2 things.If you like syfy, action, and original ghostbusters this movie writing is horrible. Don't watch.If you never seen original or dislike it, and or don't watch action or syfy much then you'll probably love this movie. Be prepared to laugh and enough

The only funny thing I saw in the first half was the look on Jones's face when she first saw a ghost although i thought that type of racial stereotyping was deemed politically incorrect 50 years ago. I also thought showing women as completely incompetent of any scientific or logical thought was frowned upon now days, although I know showing all men as complete irrational, one dimensional idiots as they did in this movie is now considered not only OK but mandatory. I couldn't believe they included a whole discussion of the movie "Ghost" which no one under 45 remembers. Half of the actresses can only know this film from their studies of ancient classics but had to pretend they have regular wet dreams about a geriatric actor. I think maybe they hope you will turn off the volume, play loud music, take acid and only watch the light show parts of this movie.

Ok, so it's not the original movie that won our hearts in 1984. However, it didn't ruin my childhood either. Kate McKinnon's pseudo Egon character is Ober the top strange and annoying, but watching her on SNL, makes me believe that she is naturally strange and unfocused. Leslie Jones, steals the movie! I really like her character and her persona in general. Ghostbusters: Answer The Call, is not for diehard fans, it's not a great reboot either. It's a movie that you need to watch with the idea that it's just a fun movie about a group of ladies who are trying to capture ghosts. Don't over expect! The end credit scene seems to set up for a sequel, but I think there is too much hate for this one.
