Ghostbusters is fun, it's silly, and it doesn't take itself too seriously.

The new Ghostbusters film is a smart, spectacular addition to the series.

Frankly, if you're going to make a new Ghostbusters with a female foursome as the leads and you're facing a backlash from clanging dungeons of the woman-hating internet, it seems like it would make for an epic opportunity to troll them.

The fact that the '84 version became a phenom is as strange, really, as the 2016 version becoming a war between idiot men and all kinds of women.

It aims to be a good family film for the summer movie season, and it fits right in with the buttery popcorn I ate while watching it.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 3, 2017

Those willing to roll with the changes will find an entertaining comedy-adventure full of new characters, new gadgets, new monsters, and new possibilities.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Jun 13, 2017

If studios are going to continue mining their catalogs for fondly remembered favorites they feel are in need of a remake, reboot or sequel, Feig and company have certainly delivered the template as to how best to do it.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 9, 2016

Ghostbusters is a gleeful shut-down of the online naysayers who were so offended by the idea that women could fight ghosts.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 1, 2016

The result is a fun, feminist reboot that focuses on the actors' strengths and chemistry without ever appearing to provide a forced gender commentary.

It's funny, and nuanced in its funniness: hehs to haaaaaaas to lols.

So, how do the Ghostbusters of today shape up against the boys of yesteryear? Pretty well ...

The new Ghostbusters is not bad at all and it would make a fun outing for a 12-year-old.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 17, 2016

An often entertaining, generally likable, but also uneven affair ...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 17, 2016

A Ghostbuster team worth calling... this one's a comedic win...

| Jul 15, 2016

It is daringly progressive, and it is a landmark in mainstream entertainment. It's just a shame that it isn't a bit funnier.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 15, 2016

The reboot of Ghostbusters feels like a Saturday Night Live comedy sketch stretched well beyond its natural running time to feature length. Its initial appeal very quickly wears off.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 15, 2016

While there are in-jokes for diehard Ghostbusters fans and cameo roles for Murray, Aykroyd and others, including a few of the original ghosts, it's also an enjoyable supernatural comedy for one and all.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 15, 2016

The new Ghostbusters is a blast, certainly as much fun and funny as the original.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 15, 2016

It's a bit anticlimactic to discover that the new 'Ghostbusters' is merely okay - neither great enough to quell its critics, nor bad enough to cheer them. It is, casting aside, a totally average studio comedy.

| Jul 15, 2016

It's funny, smart, and sweet and in every way as good or better than the original. Fanboys, have at it.

| Original Score: B+ | Jul 14, 2016
