To be fair, I just want to add that Ghostbusters 2 is criminally underrated and was slammed by critics at the time because it was being held up against the original and even now people do the same thing.
Ghostbusters 2 is not a bad movie, the writing was good, the acting was good, the comedy was good, I mean it wasn't as good as the original but it wasn't far behind it in my opinion.
This movie isn't terrible either, but it isn't anywhere near Ghostbusters 2 and I am not even saying that from a biased point of view, that's just my opinion, I watched this movie then went home and watched GB2 for comparison and it just isn't anywhere near as good as GB2, the writing in GB2 is above and beyond anything this movie achieved.
That being said, this movie is average like I expected, it's not "shit tier" and it's not "god tier" anybody who is sitting on either of them extremes is not being sincere or has not watched a lot of really bad movies or really good ones.
I just wish people could separate themselves from a side and be honest here, just be honest, look past your own inclinations and be sincere, if you either love or hate this movie after doing so then fair enough.
I just watched Ghostbusters 2 before I saw this movie (for the first time since I was a kid). I thought it was extremely mediocre, not funny, boring, and the only parts I enjoyed was the parts with Rick Moranis. This new movie I found dragged at times but was amusing and an ok movie. I would rank it above Ghostbusters 2 and I might watch it again someday, but I will never watch Ghostbusters 2 again.
