8/10
For a nice family fun
23 March 2024
Watching a reboot of Ghostbusters requires one fundamental thing: stopping yourself from comparing the reboot with the original film.

All in all, acting is nice and characters are believable. However, I think since I watched "Killing Eve", I found myself rooting for a character to get decapitated mercilessly throughout the film, and that character is Trevor. I mean, talk about useless characters.

I totally buy the chemistry among the family members. There is no problem for me there. Another good thing was the film was not drowned in nostalgia and it gives sufficient time to our new characters to grow.

However, I think they should have written off Bill Murray's character. I mean, enough already! It was not funny! It does not add anything to the story!

There is one more thing I found boring watching the film, but I do not want to spoil it for everybody, so I will not mention it as it is an important plot point.

Also, James Acaster is good in the film. I did not know he was in the film. And Kumail Nanjiani actually steals the show a bit. He was actually funny in the film, which was a surprise because of "Eternals"... Remember that film? Neither do I!
