Ghostbusters: Afterlife: Review

Ghostbusters: Afterlife honors the legacy of the franchise, while appealing to a new generation at the same time!

The story line involving the return of Gozer was perfect! What a great way to appeal to the older fans! The story flowed so nicely, and I was never bored for a single mintue! The humor in this film really stuck also! Even though it was brief, I loved the return of the remaining Ghostbusters, and their secretary! Hats off to Jason Reitman, he really did a great job and you can tell he cared about this movie!

The casting in this film was outstanding as well! Mckenna Grace did the best job, and she was easily the best casting decision in this film, she looks just like Harold Ramis! Paul Rudd definitely was meant to be a kind of Rick Moranis kind of character that has the one liners! Carrie Coon and Finn Wolfhard did great jobs as well! I was surprised at how much screen time Dan Aykroyd had, and the original cast has not lost their touch, though Bill Murray and Annie Potts have definitely gotten a lot older!

The action scenes and musical score in this film were great. The movie started off with a bang, and ended on a bang! I loved the scene where they were driving around town, trying to catch Muncher the ghost! Excellent scene!

There are so many possibilities for a sequel, and the post credit scenes definitely set some up! Really interested to see what kind of direction they take, and I hope the new cast returns, as I really loved their characters!

Out of 4 stars I would give it...
