7/10
Who ya gonna call?!!!

Ghostbusters (2016) is enjoyable and entertaining reboot of the original 1984 film. First of all, the casting is so great here! I absolutely loved Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, and Kate. I feel like Leslie jones deserves a special specific praise for her hilarious and likable performance, she was just so hilarious. "I don't know if it was a race thing or a lady thing, but I'm mad as hell!". That line is just comedy gold to me, and Leslie has sooo many more lines just that funny or even funnier, loved her staunch New York character Patty! The movie isn't perfect or like the best reboot ever made, yes, some of the jokes fall flat, but luckily the jokes that do work and succeed at making you laugh outweigh the ones that don't. Chris Hemsworth, while amazing to look at and drool over, didn't bring his best here I feel, but I feel like that was the scripts fault, his comedy didn't really work that well, but once he became the somewhat villain, he worked, I believe his villainous performance. And I LOVED how they gave all the old ghostbusters main actors roles/cameos in the movie at some point, Sigourney weaver is even back. RIP Harold Ramos. So all in all, no, it's not a 10, no not ALL of it works, but the good very much outsides the bad in my humble opinion, 7/10 for Ghostbusters 2016. Oh and CGI effects worked VERY well, very cool looking and didn't appear fake at all.
