Ghostbusters
TIMELESS
Ghostbusters is one of the earliest movies I remember ever seeing, and I’ve been hooked ever since.
It’s safe to say that I’ve seen this film close to 100 times and it manages to make me laugh every time. Every bit is hilarious and the main characters are unique while also having great chemistry. However, while being funny, Ghostbusters is also able to be action packed and full of creepy moments. This is a balance that many films of its kind have tried to replicate and have continuously failed. It makes me very sad to know that we never got a third film to see all of these characters (including Harold Ramis) go on one more adventure.
I also appreciate this film’s dedication to establish New York as a normal place that sees the Ghostbusters as either a phenomenon or a scam. And how every scene in public is everyone just staring at the Ghostbusters. It’s an element that I think goes under the radar when talking about this movie.
The original score is phenomenal, packed with the original soundtrack as well. *Chef’s kiss.
