Ghostbusters: Answer the Call Reviews
Salon.com
Matthew Rozsa
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.
Baltimore Magazine
Max Weiss
The new Ghostbusters is a blast, certainly as much fun and funny as the original.
Chesapeake Family Magazine
Roxana Hadadi
Ghostbusters is a gleeful shut-down of the online naysayers who were so offended by the idea that women could fight ghosts.
Slashfilm
Angie Han
Those willing to roll with the changes will find an entertaining comedy-adventure full of new characters, new gadgets, new monsters, and new possibilities.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
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.
Bitch Media
Catherine Scott
Ghostbusters is fun, it's silly, and it doesn't take itself too seriously.
Andscape
Soraya Nadia McDonald
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.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
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.
The Atlantic
Megan Garber
It's funny, and nuanced in its funniness: hehs to haaaaaaas to lols.
The New Yorker
Anthony Lane
So, how do the Ghostbusters of today shape up against the boys of yesteryear? Pretty well ...
leonardmaltin.com
Leonard Maltin
A Ghostbuster team worth calling... this one's a comedic win...
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
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.
NPR
Andrew Lapin
In her wily line delivery and cocksure swagger, McKinnon resembles nothing if not a young Bill Murray. Through her thick goggles is the impish spark that keeps movies like this in orbit.
Slate
Dana Stevens
These women are having fun just being together and getting to don matching jumpsuits and whale on undead spirits, and their evident joy makes us happy to hop in the hearse for a ride-along.
Film Comment Magazine
Michael Sragow
The blinding, brain-smacking mayhem can't wipe out the movie's core of good feeling. Even after the action goes bust, the film's gifted stars continue to radiate their own nuclear-powered, Amazonian brand of bonhomie.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
As is so often the case with special-effects-heavy movies, the character comedy quickly gets trampled by the effects (in this case, not special).
New York Post
Sara Stewart
Melissa McCarthy, Kristin Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones make a formidable comic team in their own right - though McKinnon steals the show as oddball physics geek Holtzmann (the Egon, if you will).
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
It's funny, smart, and sweet and in every way as good or better than the original. Fanboys, have at it.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
How will the reboot be remembered a couple of decades down the line? Not as beloved, or beloathed; more likely as beliked, if it's remembered at all.
Dallas Morning News
Britton Peele
It's no flawless classic, but it's an exciting and often funny ride through a neighborhood where something strange is going on.
