"Rejoice! The new Ghostbusters is good. Very good, in fact. It had to be. No comedy has faced more advance scrutiny - even hostility – than Paul Feig’s reboot of Ivan Reitman’s beloved 1980s hit.

It didn’t seem to matter Feig’s track record with mainstream comedy is peerless. Since hitting his big screen stride with Bridesmaids (2011), the sitcom veteran has consistently delivered: his two subsequent two female-led comedies, The Heat(2013) and Spy (2015), were spry and hilarious; both fronted by his muse, the venerable Melissa McCarthy, who he corralled into this Ghostbusters re-imagining. If ever there was a duo to bring the series into the 21st century, surely this was it.

Yet for many – chiefly blowhard middle-aged fanboys – their names spelled the apocalypse and the whole project was damned. The memory of their childhood favourite was being destroyed, they argued, by some hare-brained revisionism. A campaign was mounted – successfully – to make the first trailer for the film the most disliked in YouTube history."

I confess that I expected this film to be awful. Now I'm really curious. Will you give the new Ghostbusters a chance?

still looks like shit

I regretted seeing Jurassic World at the movies and am very hesitant towards this movie, especially since it doesn't seem to use the actors' talents very well and just seem like a poor excuse to put women in a movie just because they are women, not because of their talent. So I will remain skeptical.

Will wait to see other reviews. I too expected it to be awful.

The original GB bored me to death. I hated it. Not sure if I want to see this one

Seems like that article was written by a child with a lot of resentment. That, or they wanted to be as sensationalistic as possible.

75% on Rotten Tomatoes is wow. I always thought it looked much better than what people were saying but I didn't expect such a great reception by critics.

Whaaaaaat? I might actually see this now.

If the movie is good, then they should really reconsider whoever they chose to slap together those trailers. Every commercial I've seen that showed gags from the movie just weren't funny. I watched the first Ghostbusters as a child and found them uninteresting. I'm still on the fence with this one, but from what I've seen so far it's meh.

Spy was great though. Paul Feig should've just hired Jason Statham to play all four Ghostbusters. Each time he needs to look different, he could just go down to the Face/Off machine and get a whole new face.

I'll wait to see some reviews that aren't clearly biased.
