Rated PG-13
2 hours 4 minutes
Starring: Carrie Coon, Paul Rudd, Finn Wolfhard, Mckenna Grace
This movie is a fun new addition to the Ghostbusters franchise! It was nostalgic. It was a tribute to Harold Ramis. It really was fun! It was all kinds of things! My favorite was how much it tied into the original Ghostbusters movie and all the references that took me right back to the first one. The story involves the granddaughter of original ghostbuster Egon Spengler, who is kind of an outcast/science girl with a lot of qualities of her grandfather, finding a connection to him through becoming a ghostbuster herself! It’s a new story, but with a lot of the same characters and just enough of the original props, gadgets, and ideas from the early years that it should please new and old fans alike. I don’t know if it quite had the “magic” of the first one, but was still nice just to get away from life for a while and have an enjoyable movie for a little escape!
