Meh. I wasn't really impressed. To me, it was just another overrated, cheesy 80s comedy that's inexplicably popular. I didn't laugh once. I love Bill Murray, but this movie just failed to entertain me.
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.
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
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.

And one of the smartest comedy film of the century with interesting characters an unique premise.Gran2
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!

That's not how you write "Ghostbusters", but sure.sneha
Ok .. movie belongs to Bill Murray, his charm and the lines given to his character... frame-worthy quotes ...utkuokur

I'm here, I'm a man and I'm gonna say it. I Love Bill Murray!That could be all, but I can also say that I enjoyed watching this and I remembered watching this as a kid.
