Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.
... View MoreGood concept, poorly executed.
... View MoreAll that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.
... View MoreAll of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
... View MoreThe movie itself is a good one! To say I was a little disappointed that they didn't pick up from the Original Ghostbusters movie is a given but so many other movies do that as well. We are looking forward to the next movie!!!
... View MoreThis movie started out with a big problem. It has to live up to being a follow-up to one of the great iconic movies of the 1980s. But that shouldn't have stopped it being a good film in its own right. It has a decent cast, nice-looking CGI effects and even cameos from several of the original's cast. But then it ran into a problem so many re-boots and re-makes run into. It is being made by people who have no idea what made the original so great and who see it more as a quick buck rather than a chance to re-imagine an old franchise. Though it entertains, it's a lot better than most of the recent Hollywood re-boots and there's the odd moment of genuine humour, it's still just a typical cash-cow. Compared to the complex personalities of the original team, the four new Ghostbusters are all one-note characters (one of them seems to think "eccentric" means simply staring boggle-eyed through comedy-nerd glasses). Just about everyone else in the movie is there simply to be irritating. Most of the humour is just low-brow, and the horror is uninteresting. There are no images that come close to rivalling the memorable designs of the original two films, and you come away feeling nothing for the characters. Worth a look as a curio for fans of these kinds of movies, and the cast do the best with the spartan material they're given, but it's hardly the kind of thing for repeated viewings.
... View MoreIt 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
... View MoreI understand that filmmaking is a left leaning business, but to remake an iconic movie with female rather than male main characters is too far. Also the acting, humor, and CGI is bad to. Don't listen to critics, this is not a good movie.
