This is a fun movie! I love it when a reboot can pay homage to the original and then go its own entertaining way. The four female ghostbusters are spot on and each brings their own unique comedic style to their roles. There are fun cameos from most of the original cast; although my favorite was Dan Aykroyd because he gets to say…..well no spoilers here. The real surprise for me though was Chris Hemsworth. His dreamy Thor is the main reason I am an Avengers fan. But evidently he is not just another pretty face- Hemsworth has some comedic chops and holds his own with these funny ladies. I was surprised to see Andy Garcia in this movie but he did a fine job playing the usual truth bending politician. If you are tired of seeing serious adult-oriented action movies full of shooting and explosions, I highly recommend this fun piece of comedy fluff (well, there my be a few explosions here). Also, don’t forget to stay until after the credits for another reference to the original movie and perhaps teaser for a Ghostbusters II? I hope so!

This sounds like such a fun movie, and I love the idea of cameos from the original. I hope it’s appropriate for a 9 year old because I can just picture my grandson enjoying it with me too!
Terry, thank you! There is nothing inappropriate in this movie. There were many kids at the showing we went to and we didn’t hear any complaints. I am sure you both will love it!
Yay, glad to hear it! I really appreciate your posts Adnerb! 🙂
Thanks Terry!
