Where to Watch Ghostbusters 2
- ርልዪረ−2 dWhat's that you say? Ghostbusters, one of the most financially successful and over-hyped comedies of the eighties, underrated? Yes. Precicely because it was so over-hyped and made so much money, there has been a stigma attached to this film identifying it as a childish FX piece, when it is nothing of the sort. Most of the lines people remember("He slimed me," "OK. So? She's a dog," "When someone asks you if you're a god, you say YES!") are not its funniest or wittiest lines, which often are missed on first or even second viewing. I laugh every time I observe a gag or a quip that I somehow missed the other 20 times I viewed a scene; "Egon, this reminds me of the time you tried to drill a hole through your head, remember that?" "That would have worked if you hadn't stopped me", or, to the driver of a van from a loony bin, "Dropping off or picking up?" Brilliant. Not only is Ghostbusters funny, it manages to include some truly scary scenes. And not just lose-your-popcorn moments like the fridge from Hell, but also scenes of quiet, thoughtful chill, like Egon's retelling of how the possessed apartment building came into being, or Winston recalling the Book of Revelation. Which other film has managed to combine the Marx Brothers with HP Lovecraft? The special effects hold up well, besides some obvious studio sets and models, but what really creates this film's world is the stunning cinematography. Manhattan, perhaps the pinnacle of Gothic architectural evolution, is brilliantly utilised here to create a sense of menacing grandeur. After watching "Ghostbusters" I couldn't imagine the realm of the Old Gods opening into our world from anywhere else. The soundtrack is great, not the overrated theme (Which was in fact lifted from Huey Lewis' "I Need a New Drug"), but the wonderfully blusey "Cleaning Up the Town," the creepy proto-techno chiller "Magic" and also the wonderful score by the late and much lamented Elmer Bernstein.
- Zokkiie7 januari 2026It’s not as sharp as the first one, but honestly it’s a really fun watch. The jokes mostly work, the big goofy moments are great, and it’s just an easy movie to throw on and enjoy. It plays it pretty safe, but it’s got charm, good energy, and that cozy sequel feel. Definitely better than its reputation
- Richard7 december 2025Ghostbusters II brought the team back together and I remember enjoying the ride. The discovery of the river of ectoplasm under New York gave the film a darker, more supernatural edge, while still keeping the humor and charm that made the original so beloved. Seeing the Ghostbusters revive their business and face a new wave of spectral chaos felt familiar yet fun. It didn’t quite capture the lightning in a bottle magic of the first film, but it had its own appeal. The mix of comedy, fantasy and action kept me entertained and before I knew it, the movie was over. For me, it was less about comparing it to the original and more about enjoying another chance to spend time with these characters in their ghost busting world.
- MetroidTalon22 augusti 2025It’s not the original, but Ghostbusters II still brings enough charm, slime, and ghostbusting fun to make it worth the ride. The cast slips back into their roles with ease, and the chemistry is just as sharp, even if the story isn’t. The villain lacks the bite of Gozer, and the plot gets goofy fast, but the tone stays light and entertaining. The emotional beats land, the jokes mostly work, and the ending delivers that classic over-the-top payoff. A solid sequel that coasts on nostalgia and charisma, and mostly sticks the landing.
