The Metacritic user reviews, of course (which have ironically become more objective and principled than the reviews of mainstream critics), the movie itself I could not have less of an interest in. I could go on a 10000 word essay about why this film is, in a word, an abomination, but I won't (partially because there is a 5000 character limit, partially because I am very lethargic and partially because I'm not a pretentious, preening, poseur liberal arts/gender studies graduate pretending to identify with and enjoy cult movies/nerd stuff just so I can then **** all over everything and ram my toxic, inane, nihilistic agenda down everyone's throat to feel superior, because mommy gave me just a little too much attention and praise for my own good growing up).

What is this movie? It's Bridesmaids with a Ghostbusters veneer. It's the same, tired, generic "female comedy" that is churned out every time women are given a damn chance to try and make a funny, which is far, far too often.

Don't give them your money, don't give them your time, this is an inferior charity product that participants will try to guilt trip and shame you into watching and pretending to enjoy in the name of social "justice".

Women's comedy is effectively the WNBA, let's be **** honest, shall we?!… Expand

Chris Hemsworth seems to have taken the spotlight. I'm not sure whether this was intended but it happened nevertheless. The movie kept on pointing out how mindless and stupid Hemsworth was to the point that he became a central theme of the entire movie. This came over as bitter. The movie should have focused on the ghostbusters but instead became preoccupied in proving that men can be stupid secretaries.

The sad thing about the failure of this movie is that a serious production now can't be made. They've tanked a great brand name and have ruined the concept for all of us.

On a different note, I believe this movie may be the death of Melissa Mcartney's career. I have a theory -- called the Sander's Syndrome -- that an actor's comedic value dies as soon as the actor becomes ideological. I name the Sander's Syndrome after the 'comedian' Adam Sandler. He just isn't funny anymore. I believe he started to become unfunny when he started to become political. I think this killed his comedy. Unfortunately, I think Melissa Mcartney will just become another Adam Sandler. :(… Expand

Ghostbusters 2016 is set in a difference universe than the first two Ghostbusters movies, it has nothing to do with those two movies. So there's no reason to reboot the francise (Other than money, of course). They only make a slight reference to Ghostbusters in the very end of the movie. Seriously the last line of dialogue spoken. I'm not kidding you.

The acting in this movie was so bad! In the orginal two movies I alwes felt like they were real people. Not just actors in cheap suits. In this movie, I just felt like they were (bad) actors in cheap suits.

This movie doesn't deserve to be called Ghostbusters. Because they never catch any ghosts in the movie! And the one they actually catch they let out later in the movie to prove a point to Bill Murray (Who doesn't want to be in this awful movie).

I'm not even gonna explain how it attacks men at every chance it gets.

And no, I don't hate this movie just because it stars a female cast. I've seen plenty of movies with a female lead that I liked.

The only connection this movie has to the original is Bill Murray, but he doesn't even want to be there. But he has to since Sony planned to sue him if he wasn't in the movie.

This movie is nothing but a money grab. Don't pay movie to see it. Don't even see it for free!… Expand

Wiig's and McCarthy's characters come across as blandGhostbusters 2016 doesn't understand what made the original special, and even fails to be entertaining on its own merits by constantly trying to emulate the original while failing. Wiig's and McCarthy's characters come across as bland compared to their usual roles. McKinnon's is annoyingly weird. Jones' character is a straight up loud racial stereotype. The only character that works most of the time is Hemsworth's, but it's not enough to save this movie. The plot weak and uninteresting, something that seemed to have been haphazardly thrown together for the movie rather than something crafted with care, so much so in fact that the movie's own self contained logic gets thrown to the wind at points. The original Ghostbusters made the implausible seem plausible, and took an absurd premise while playing it straight. Ghostbusters 2016 takes cartoonish characters and inserts them into a poorly written plot with lowest common denominator penis-vagina-fart-piss joke humor I'd be ashamed to show to my kid.

Verdict: This movie is neither worth a watch at the theaters or even an eventual rent. If you need Ghostbusters, stick to the original.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I reviewed this on IMDB too:

Don't listen to a lot of the professional critics on this one, I suspect some are happier as their wallets are a little heavier after giving this a 'good' review, while playing it safe to appease the crowds. But their lack of honesty then requires real viewers to be honest in their observations and write about it.

Some of the issues with this film:

- The Characters - They are often too over the top, especially Kate Mckinnon, she becomes very annoying very fast, like a 13 year old trying to be funny. Kristen Wiig plays it less goofy but her issue is she looks like she doesn't want to be here at all. Chris Hemsworth provided a few 'bright' spots but certainly not enough. Leslie Jones was OK when she was not yelling, but she does this too frequently, it feels like a stereotype.

- The Script/Jokes - Far too many rapid 'jokes', many miss and the standard is low throughout. Too many gross out, immature gags that often are just a cover for a lack of good writing.

- Excessive Noise, Color - This whole movie is very noisy, ugly and in your face, they didn't say you can get a free headache with the price of your ticket too.

- Reeks of a Feminazi Message - I love women, but I hate feminazis and the often hateful message they spread. Certain scenes are for sure geared towards this malicious group - such as the shooting the villain in the crotch, castration, to 'save the day', good message for kids there...

- Runtime - I was checking the time throughout, it is overlong and the pacing is off, too many needlessly long scenes.

Overall: The original Ghostbusters (and to an extent the OK Ghostbusters 2) had a subtle humour, this film is the opposite of that. Even if it wasn't a Ghostbusters film it still would be very bad, but to hijack the name of a great franchise to get your movie more popularity, that makes it worse.

I was almost tempted to ask for my money back at the cinema afterwards, but then I knew what I was getting into as the trailers were everywhere, so I didn't, I did this to myself.

--- So unless you too want to have the same feeling of being robbed after walking out of the cinema, I would highly recommend spending your hard earned money on another movie.… Expand

As a huge fan of the original, I'm going to judge this as a Ghostbusters film (which is only fair as the studio is trading off the franchise), rather than a generic Hollywood Summer Blockbuster and well... I'm afraid that as a GhostbustersAs a huge fan of the original, I'm going to judge this as a Ghostbusters film (which is only fair as the studio is trading off the franchise), rather than a generic Hollywood Summer Blockbuster and well... I'm afraid that as a Ghostbusters movie, it stinks. It really stinks.

I've read quite a lot of official reviews that say it's better than GB2, in what universe I ask you? GB2 had serious structural flaws compared to the first, there's no doubt, but its jokes and set pieces are still some of the most iconic of the franchise. Seeing as how no one who has made this claim has in any way tried to back it up, let me compare the two right here and now.

First the baddies. Vigo vs Rowan. No contest, Vigo. Rowan is a terrible baddie, he'll be forgotten a few months after the Blu-Ray release, whereas Vigo is iconic and terrifying. So let's compare the good guys. GB2 relies on the magnificent chemistry between Murray, Aykroyd, Ramis and Hudson to drive it along and whatever the structural flaws, the chemistry is as strong as ever. Wiig, McCarthy, McKinnon and Jones do not share any chemistry, it's actually painful to see them on screen together. Even as individuals they fall far short of the original cast. If we take Wiig as an analogue to Murray, there's no contest; Murray gains a flawless victory. People are still quoting Venkman lines from GB2, "bummer", no one will be quoting Erin Gilbert in (nearly) 30 years time. The same is true for the rest of the cast head- to-head. To save time I'll just highlight the example of McKinnon, who I love on SNL, but couldn't bear in this movie. She's clearly the Egon character, but she phones it in, playing a generic 'kook' and going so over the top that it basically ruins half of the scenes that she's in. Again, McKinnon, like Wiig, has no funny or memorable lines such as 'lets see what happens when we take away the puppy' and her humour is weird for the sake of it, rather than the deadpan brilliance of the late Harold Ramis. The supporting characters are just regurgitated, worse versions of people from the originals, there isn't anyone who comes close to the creepy-comedy brilliance of Peter MacNichol's Janosz, one of the greatest, most iconic supporting characters in any comedy!

So let's look at the structure and set pieces. If GB2 was structurally flawed, GB2016 "should be condemned", (see what I did there?) I don't want to spoiler the movie, so I'll keep to scenes and plot devices already revealed by the trailers. Firstly, the rock concert scene falls completely flat compared to the courthouse scene in GB2. The ghosts released by Rowan serve little purpose, look cheap and lack the comedy mischief of the ghosts in the original. Rowan's machine is a lazy cop-out and is in no way comparable to the absolutely terrifying and completely awesome river of slime flowing through the spooky abandoned subway. GB2 was all about creating some legitimate scares (Titanic docking!) and a feelgood factor which it did through some iconic set pieces. There is no feelgood factor to this new movie. It feels cheap in a nasty way and is surprisingly cynical for something that I've read is supposed to be aspirational in some way.

I could go all day comparing the two but let's just say that GB2016 in no way measures up side by side to GB2. I suspect that the reason some reviewers are making that claim is to try and salvage something from this God-awful mess, so people will say 'hey, at least it's not the worst Ghostbusters movie.' It must be shilling because when you put all the elements of the two movies side-by-side, it's clear that despite its flaws, GB2 is simply better in every way than this lazy reboot. But here's the thing, my kid enjoyed it. He didn't like it as much as Ghostbusters, or even Ghostbusters 2, but he thought it was neat regardless. I think kids will like this film because it's flashy and the jokes are crude and obvious; adults who loved the subtle, dry wit of the original will probably be turned off by the listless, rehashed, gross-out humour and half-hearted performances.

I have one more story to share that I think any parent might want to know before taking their child to see this film. When we came out of the cinema, my kid was in a funny mood that I've never seen him in before, half-hyped and half-pensive. I asked him if he was feeling alright and he said 'yeah', then there was this long pause and I could see him struggling with something. Eventually he turned to me and said, 'dad, when I grow up I want to be a lady'. I was pretty taken aback but I tried not to show it, instead I just said to him 'well you know you can be whatever you want to be sport; why do you want to be a lady, is it to be like the new Ghostbusters?'. And he just looked at me with eyes that seemed older than his years and said, 'no dad, it's because this film made me realise all guys are either stupid or evil, so it's better just to be a lady I guess...'… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was wondering what all the hype was about, with feminists calling this movie an ode to feminism and saying that anyone who hated it are misogynists. I now understand why so few people identify as feminist and why so many are against the movement. This movie was an ode to hatred of men and it is obvious that it's supporters were projecting their own sexism and chauvinism onto those who were speaking against this movie. The man-hating would have been bad enough, but add to that the fact that it just wasn't funny. At all. Ok, there were a few chuckles early on, but for the most part the theater was silent. Every man in the movie was either evil or idiotic, and their motivations were not really explained at all. It was very poor, lazy writing that made it clear that the writers weren't aiming to make a good movie, they were just aiming to cash in on apparent feminist vitriol against men and boys.

Speaking of, the writing was just horrible. There was none of the wit that we saw with the original, and many parts of the movie didn't even make any sense. Especially when it came to the special effects - it's like the actors and writers never communicated with the CGI team and didn't know what was going to be on the screen. For example after the possessing ghost visibly leaves the Ghostbuster right in front of your face, why continue to hit her? For the slap-stick comedic effect? It might have been funny if it made sense to do that, but it came off as just stupid. And speaking of the CGI... there were parts that weren't too bad, mediocre even, but the end when the antagonist turns onto the "Ghostbuster's" logo, it looks like something out of a Disney cartoon, which looked really out of place and, well, lazy. And of course they have to put the icing on the misandry cake by shooting the antagonist in the crotch with their proton beams.

The worst part was what hey did to Bill Murray. You can tell he didn't want to be there, and they treated his character horribly. It makes me wonder how they forced the actor to participate, which leads me to wonder if the other actors from the original were there under duress as well. This movie was so horribly disrespectful to the original movie as well as all of the fans of the original, and to the audience as a whole, I have a hard time believing that the actors of the original were happy with what was being done to the franchise. It's as infuriating as it is sad.

As we were leaving the theater, the looks on the faces of those around me were looks of bewilderment. Why would Sony sign off on what amounted to a kick in the collective crotch of the audience? Do man-hating feminists really have so much power in our society that they can now browbeat movie executives into cow-towing to their political agenda? Now I understand why there is a growing number of people who identify as anti-feminist. This movie, and the way that Sony and feminists have bullied anyone who spoke out against the movie and its trailers, convinces me that "anti-feminist" is not only a preferable label, but one that is becoming increasingly necessary.… Expand

The actresses: Some were OK, delivering a mediocre performance trying to make people laugh and, while something achieving that goal, they failed the vast majority of the time.

The visual effects: I belive that the CGI were the best aspect of the entire movie. Overindulgence of this asset, but good overall.

Finally, the script: I really hate that they took a classic from the 80's and turned into this piece of junk. I'm so sorry if someone who's reading this actually disagreed with my opinion overall, but is safe to say that they had the obligation of NOT FUC**** THINGS UP! I felt like part of my parents childhood was taken away when I saw the actual actors from the original movie taking part of this so called "movie". Now I know that I'm been a little too emphatic on how bad the movie was, but it breaks my heart, and I soon as I got home I needed to write a review. I'm sorry Paul Feig (the Ghostbusters 2016 director) and Columbia Pictures, your movie sucks big time.… Expand

I just forced myself through this trainwreck just to see Murray and Aykroyd's cameos. What an useless waste of good money, of talent, of hundreds of people's time.

This pretentious pandering display of feminist propaganda is enough to prompt the question, 'What day did the Lord create the rebooted Ghostbusters, and couldn't he have rested on that day too?'

This movie is now just as dead on the inside as I am after it was watched.... A sequel to this horrific film cannot be allowed to be even spoke about...

Insulting:
1. I was stunned when i found that it was NOT a continuation but instead it was a REMAKE W T F. Basically deleting the REAL Ghostbusters.
2. The movie is BAD. I was expecting a really awesome movie because noone would be as stupidInsulting:
1. I was stunned when i found that it was NOT a continuation but instead it was a REMAKE W T F. Basically deleting the REAL Ghostbusters.
2. The movie is BAD. I was expecting a really awesome movie because noone would be as stupid to make a so controversial movie and then make it a bad movie so you make it easy for everyone to bash you so hard, but yes it is, really amateur. It looks like made but a bunch of unprofessional people with not a hint of talent. Script, camarography, lighting, Special Effects, Direction, are all subpar to the point that the movie looks like those direct to tv movies.

3. The movie is highly insulting to men. The first one secondary character is depicted as a coward, the secod as effeminate ( that apparently the people behind this movie is a trait they consider shamefull i see), the third is depicted as a mentally retarded.

They even go as far as insulting the real ghostbusters through a sentence said after an appearance of bill murray.

I am not surprised this movie made millions of people extreme anti feminists.… Expand

What a mess. I've given up on "professional" reviewers. We have 8/10 media outlets shilling harder than a fake cripple at a tent revival. That's the only explanation I can come up with to explain how this film doesn't have an aggregate five,What a mess. I've given up on "professional" reviewers. We have 8/10 media outlets shilling harder than a fake cripple at a tent revival. That's the only explanation I can come up with to explain how this film doesn't have an aggregate five, or- how low does this thing go?- negative ten? I don't know. This rolling crapsack is an affront to filmmaking. I've seen funnier school bus accidents. It's seriously the cinematic equivalent of having the o-ring forcefully removed from your **** with no anesthetic.

I saw it in a pretty packed theater, which probably would have accounted for 84% of the films total US revenue, and the crowd laughed exactly twice. Neither time at the movie. Except for me. When the protagonists were dancing for absolutely no reason after the garbage, inorganic, forced library scene, I started cackling like a madman. Everyone stared at me like I had checked the **** out, and I finished with "Aaaahhh.... This is **** I happened to deliver that end line right when the sound cut out, and the theater erupted into laughter. That's right, folks. I garnered more aggregate laughs in three words than this entire film. Comedic timing. The other laugh came as Chris Hemsworth busted his dance move and someone in the back row ripped a particularly deep and voluminous fart.

I mean, look at it. The characters are barely cardboard cutouts. We might as well have called them "the fat one", "the black one"... "pants"? The only actress who seems to have any actual talent is Leslie Jones, who unfortunately gets completely swept under by the garbage script. Paul Feig is a hack and whoever wrote this should feel a deep and eternal shame. The cameos were forced and awkward. A bunch of stupid, one-off devices were introduced for the sole reason of setting up an action scene that was the antithesis of everything charming about the original. Oh, and the end villain is defeated by a kick in the nuts. Seriously.

Sadly, the whole affair is vastly less entertaining than reading the unwarranted positive reviews of obvious corporate shills.

Don't see it. Don't rent it. Don't get it from Red Box. Put that money in an IRA or something. Hell, light those two dollars on fire and shove them down your pants. You'll have a better time than you will seeing this movie. Oh. To drive the point home, please direct your attention to some chud making dupe accounts and spamming positive reviews below. Just let this broken-legged horse die, man. It's **** Let the flies eat it.… Expand

So apparently "comedy" boils down to a black woman spouting racist, yet predictable quips, nut shots, and exposition delivered with all the elegance of a drunk hippo attempting ballet. This is bargain-bin junk. Avoid.

The pacing is horrible, the CGI on the ghosts look horrible, the "jokes" were not funny and the characters are all not likeable at all. Save yourself the time and money.
