I have just seen this and thought it was fantastic! It has a better story than the first one with more myth, legend and science in it which I like. It has lots of throwbacks to the original film too. I really rate it.

We've just been to see it as well. Absolutely brilliant! I love all the films to be fair 😊

TeaMeBasil · 23/03/2024 16:56

Just seen it - loved it! Definitely recommend to anyone for a good watch 😁

I enjoyed it but thought there was possibly one storyline too many between Paul Rudd's fatherly role issues, the underground lab thing, the Firemaster, the evil mayor, the will-they-won't-they ghost and the firehouse building falling to bits.

We went to see it today and all loved it (me, dh and Ds aged 11). So many negative reviews about it online we nearly cancelled but so glad we didn’t as we thought it was great!

Loved it. Everyone seemed to have a presence apart from the mum though!

MissyB1 · 01/04/2024 21:15

Just watched it this evening, we loved it!

We watched this today as well and really enjoyed it.

I rewatched the first one yesterday and I’m going to see the new one this week. Love love love Ghostbusters!

FrogSplash · 01/04/2024 22:13

Really enjoyed this too. Loved seeing James Acaster in it as well.

I thought it was a bit slow to get going. The "big threat" doesn't really appear until almost the end of the film. Not really what I was expecting from the trailer.

Watched it last night definitely not as good as the first one, thought the script was a bit scrappy and the story line weak. The first one was brilliant and easily the best, it set the scene with comedy, action and emotion. This was one was rather boring and If it wasn't for the fact Paul rudd is easy on the eye I would have fell asleep.

Just got back from seeing it with DD6 & DD9. Some scarier bits for a 12A but even my DDs didn't mind as they recognised so many things from the 80s films. Also threw on my 12 year old Ghostbusters hoody so show my fangirl side!

Definitely worth a watch!

Volbeat · 09/04/2024 22:05

Agree, I thought it was fantastic. Much better than Afterlife and I thought that was great. Would definitely watch this again.

I enjoyed it but probably would have reduced the parts of the original cast down to smaller cameos and let the new cast stand on their own a bit more. I felt Afterlife did the nostalgia bit and better to let this film build on the next gen? The climax had too many characters involved and in general it felt like too many stories competing. Better than reviews though and worth a half term trip (although Grandma's sex dungeon bit felt a bit odd...)

I agree re the sex dungeon reference 😳 was that really necessary in a 12A?!

JMSA · 10/04/2024 11:46

Instantly forgettable and I just wanted it to be over!
To be fair, as films go, it's really not my cup of tea.

Previous films have had the jokes/references for the adults (Ray's dream in the first film, the sailor reference in the 2nd) but they were slightly subtle and at least funny which this wasn't. It felt like they wanted to get a sex joke in and just got AI to write it
