Review of Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021) by Jluis_001 — 26 Nov 2021
Ultimately, it all had to stay in the family, and Jason Reitman decided to pay homage to his father's work in the two original films.
There were some risks, of course, especially as there is still a lot of noise and complaints about Paul Feig's disappointing 2016 film, but I have to say that any comparison is simply pointless and unnecessary.
Ghostbusters: Afterlife is a straightforward film that doesn't mess around.
It offers a simple but engaging story involving new and mostly interesting characters, who manage to hold the weight of the narrative, and although at many points it can err on the side of nostalgia and lean too heavily on the past, it manages to come across as an entertaining, funny, and surprisingly touching film.
