I decided to go see the movie even though I thought it looked terrible. I wanted be able to say I saw it and it sucked. It honestly wasn't that bad. It kind of fizzled out at the end though. I liked all the characters except for Kate Mckinnon's. Leslie Jones' character wasn't has bad as the commercials made it seem. I've seen her in SNL and it wasn't that far off from how she acts on there. Chris Hemsworth was so hilarious. Sometimes they made him too dumb but for the most part he was funny. I think they are definitely playing on the who "sexism" thing just to get people to talk about. Seems like they knew people would have this reaction and even reference it in the movie. All the cameos were awesome to.

TLDR It was ok.

Why spend $10 dollars on something you make clear you KNOW isn't worth that? Why not wait for it to be on TV?

Agreed on all points. Thought it would be terrible, it wasn't half bad, the end was a bit lackluster, enjoyed the cameos. Are you me?

I'll probably get around to it. When it happens to be on a flight, or Netflix, or I get another free code for RedBox.

I saw it on Saturday and every negative review I've heard or read has been total bullshit. It was actually really fucking good.

And Kate's character was my absolute favorite. I thought she was hilarious.

Variety and hollwood reporter panned it. I trust them. They are unbiased and have no agenda.

I only trust my sister's reviews of things. Even then, I see things for myself to be sure. I really want a sequel to this Ghostbusters.

Doubtful. It's not gonna make its money back. It needs to make 500 million. It's nowhere close to hitting that.

That's why I left angry. I realized I really enjoyed it, then I realized so many people hated it before seeing it, that it was unlikely.

I have heard this same story so many times. I think it must actually have been a good movie @OP. I don't know why you're getting downvoted..

I am down voting merely on the principle that reboots and remakes kill originality for every mad max you get a few childhood classics ruined

He's getting downvoted because most people here formed their negative opinion before the movie even premiered.

I got a pass from work and it was playing at the time I showed up, so I saw it. I was really fucking impressed by it.

Glad you enjoyed it! I haven't seen it yet but everyone I know or have read on here that have seen it were satisfied with it

Only complaint was Hemsworth being ridiculously stupid. He was funny as fuck, I just really really hate that pretty and dumb stereotype.

Nobody has said it was good, they say "its not that bad". Which is fine...but Ghostbusters deserves better than mediocre.

I'm saying it is good. Good enough that I left angry at the people that hated it before seeing it, because they may prevent a sequel.

You're right, it does deserve better. I have three friends who went to see it and they all really liked it for some reason though..

Fair enough. But people also really like Adam Sandler movies, what can you do?

Oh God.. Adam Sandler movies.. They keep coming out, the same overused not funny plots.. Why do we put ourselves through them still?

Because you have three friends who would really like them for some reason.
