A good but not great movie. If you think mashing together the Goonies movie with Ghostbusters is a great mashup idea then you will love this movie.

Relies heavily on nostalgia, but is a sincere sequel that is respectful of the original films. Definitely a step up from the 2016 Ghostbusters abomination, but basically anything would've been. Worth a watch.

After the last installment of the franchise with the 4 girls (which I consider was a total disaster) they were able to redeem themselves with a very original new story. People are charismatic and you take love from the beginning to the end. IAfter the last installment of the franchise with the 4 girls (which I consider was a total disaster) they were able to redeem themselves with a very original new story. People are charismatic and you take love from the beginning to the end. I was hoping that Paul Rudd would have a big role in this movie but they used his talents to make it secondary. Which is not bad but they did not know how to take advantage of their talent. The character of Finn Wolfhard is actually waiting for more participation in the plot but I think that the central axis of the film I do not know how to put adequate because it shows a little of everything. In the end it is a good movie to see with the family on a Saturday or Sunday, entertaining, jokes and references from the past. Good job to the producer and the director.… Expand

Respectful to the originals and the legacy of everyone involved with them. A fitting epitaph for Harold Ramis in memory of his contribution to the others. If you don’t like the call backs - you’re missing the point and it’s your loss. A good example of how political professional reviewers for hire and totally detached from the people now. Again. Only criticism of the movie: needs more siren. Now go and buy the merch folks. Great job ghostbusters. X… Expand

Not surprised the critic score is low as they are completely detached from the real world and what a good movie is. Not the first time the critics have got it wrong trying to predict how they think the audience will react.

But what it does lack a little bit is some originality. I'd say it's not a bad conclusion to the original, but there could have been some better ideas. There is some quite cringy parts as well. With that said, I loved it, I'd watch it again, and it helps us forget that car crash of a remake in 2016.… Expand

Whilst I didn’t hate the reboot I also didn’t like it, the tone was wrong, it wasn’t funny, the characters were annoying and the story was weak. This fixes all those issues with a perfect tone, great story and a focus on new interesting characters whilst acknowledging the ones we loved from the eighties. Overall enjoyable and entertaining so long as you’ve seen the original.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's a great tribute to the Ghostbusters franchise and not just chock-full of fan service, yeah, but the film itself isn't too great. The pacing sometimes feels a little weird, some characters aren't developed too well like the brother, whom I forgot the name of, (goes to show) and I think the film starts out a little bit slow. However, I still think it's good. It's got some great moments, and for what it was supposed to do and be, it did one hell of a good job. And also I did like the little bit of fan service. (coughs in Bill Murray) So it's a great movie, even if not too great.… Expand
