Review of Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021) by Ishaplo — 22 Nov 2021

I imagine Leslie Jones (when/if she was watching this) felt the same pain when she was slapping the **** out of Melissa McCarthy. Who feels like a dumb blue checkmark now?

What a beautiful love letter to all the fans of the original Ghostbusters. And updated perfectly to 2021's sensibilities without being woke, or insulting to any one group of people like Hollywood is wont to do these days i.e. the Midwest representation.

Not sure why people are unhappy about this because while yes, it's very Force Awakens-y, it did something really well with Egon's granddaughter's journey to finding her place in the world.

This is a damn good movie for any child to learn about confidence. I'd have one if I could, grow it in a special chamber just to let him/her watch this and feel good about growing up.

'Cause you know? We live in a society.
