Review
Let me make this clear, it isn't as good as the original. Despite having all the cast, it isn't as funny as the first. But I will say the plot is different (what a sequel has to do to have a chance), and the acting and visuals are allright. The film works for the most part, trying to do more, but it still doesn't measure up in terms of the first one. However, it is still a good film. Now where's Ghostbusters 3 when you need it?
Overall, I give 8 out of 10 stars.
