Summary

A.Ron and Jim review the disgusting, ill-conceived, disgraceful actually quite delightful addition to the Ghostbusters franchise featuring a cast of stellar funny women in Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, Leslie Jones, and Melissa McCarthy. The movie delivered solid action and laughs, a few gut busters, inspired performances by a lot of cameo actors who are clearly having a great time, and the correct and satisfying amount of respect and homages to the classic cast, including several nods to the late great Harold Ramis. So, to the dudes that hated on this film from the jump for no other reason than the fact that women had the temerity to re-make it, I got two words for you: Suck it!

I went in there and I'm like you know what I think

0:43.2

Kate McKinnon is going to be awesome and that's the only real expectation I

0:47.8

had and I found this movie I thought this movie was kicked ass I thought it was super funny like so my

0:55.3

biggest criticism is it drags a bit in a second act but that's very common of

1:00.6

this kind of superhero slash adventure team type of movie like the

1:05.3

assembling and the introduction of the team is interesting and the third act usually

1:09.9

kicks ass but then there's like okay how do we get it into the end game you know the

1:14.9

Deadpool even suffered from from that to a little bit but other than that the

1:19.5

idea that it's hard to connect all three acts together when these origin films I thought it's hard to connect all three acts together and when he's origin films I thought it is hilarious.

1:26.0

Yeah, everybody in the film is real funny and I was a little worried going in because I don't particularly like Melissa McCarthy.

1:32.0
