This is one of the most sexist films I've seen in a while. And I do love watching films from the 80s. Incredibly overrated, and definitely hasn't aged very well.
The original Ghost Busters of course still stands up, and for movie buffs, there's nothing quite like seeing those original old school effects. I think they're part of the fun, and though we can do a lot more today, that doesn't necessarily means we can do better. Still quite good, I must say. It's in some ways a purer film than the new one, not just because it's not built on the bones of the past, but because the characters a more clearly archetypal. Brain - Heart - Mouth - I wonder what Eddie Murphy's version of Winston would have been like, given an expanded role. But as it is, it's iconic, and eminently watchable.
Does this need to be remade? At 32 years old it shows its age, yet remains entertaining. It's pretty much the Billy Murray show but everyone in the cast has at least one memorable line. My favorites: "Yes, it's true, this man has no dick." And "I've seen shit that will turn you white." A true classic.
Hadn't seen it in at least 20years! As I recalled, I wasn't to impressed with the movie as a kid and still wasn't that entertained. Funny stuff and some good effects but still didn't get me at all. Overhyped

Characters, cast, sets, props, dialogue, plot, sound, music, Bill Murray... Some films are timeless. Some films are perfect. This is one of them.IreneAdler
I've been told the fact that I'd never seen 'Ghost Busters' was unacceptable - so I was finally made to watch it :)It's not among my favourite comedies but it was very enjoyable to watch it once; some really funny scenes and silly ghosts :) Not bad!
