Love the original two movies, but that's not what I should base this on. Geez I'm 80 minutes into this 2 hour film and I'm bored enough to turn it off, if it didn't have the ghostbusters name I would have probably have skipped past it, but I honestly haven't laughed, snickered or even grinned at any of the "jokes". Watch if you want to kill a couple of hours but don't expect much.

I really did, but the story didn't flow logically. And the characters choice didn't match their intelligence. The best parts of the film were the cameos of the original stars.

When I heard that this movie was coming out, I was confused. Why remake a movie that was so beloved by so many. The movie has a strike against it before it was was released.When I finally sat down to watch the movie, it met my low expectations. Kate McKinnon could read pages out of a phone book and be funny. Melissa McCarthy is at her best when she plays a character that isn't over the top, same with Kristen Wiig. Leslie Jones has to be over the top, that's her style.I can't complain at the performances, they did the best with what they had. I thought the story was lacking although there was some good laughs.I'm hoping that a sequel is not in the works. Women with this much talent can find something much more befitting to them. If it happens to be on a movie channel, go check it out, lots of cameos.

Remember why you loved the original ghostbusters, because it was part of your childhood. That's the point childhood, a movie aimed at young people. Anyone watching this moving as a fully fledged grown up and expecting to be wowed as they were at age 9 is misguided. How do I know this, my 6 year old absolutely loves this movie. Like always asks to watch it! He loves the song, knows all the words and can't wait to see the original. However I know he's not going to enjoy the original as much as they just don't have the cool effects like movies now. This folks is reality and that's the way it is. Granted I smirked about 3 times but my son giggled and generally thought the slime was super cool. For keeping my son happy for 2 hours it absolutely get a 6. I like the actors and for that it's totally bearable!
