Reviews

Ghostbusters received mixed reviews from critics upon its release. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a rating of 74%, stating 'Ghostbusters does an impressive job of standing on its own as a freewheeling, marvelously cast supernatural comedy -- even if it can't help but pale somewhat in comparison with the classic original.' IMDb users rated it 6.8/10, praising the chemistry between the leads and the visual effects. Metacritic rated the film 60/100, noting 'While its reboot shape sacrifices some of the original's ragged charm, the 2016 Ghostbusters provides more than enough laughs ... complete with a sturdily non-novel storyline.' Overall, the film offers an entertaining and engaging experience, blending humor and action in a modern update of a beloved classic.
