My Ghostbusters 2016 Review

[*Awful Llama*]

I'm walking on the treadmill yesterday before lunch, and the wife was reading the Sunday paper, when outta left field she says "Hey, why don't we go see Ghostbusters today?" This was somewhat surprising because my wife's movie tastes tend to run toward bloody torture movies like Saw or those damn movies where cameras capture pots moving on their own or babies levitating in cribs and shit that makes me want to sleep with the effen lights on. But, she loves Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Wiig, too, so I capitulated. And, on a 94 degree Sunday, sitting under blasting A/C in a dark theater aint the worst idea.

I thought it was ok. We saw it in 3D, and the effects were decent. There were a few laughs, and Kate McKinnon crated a funny, weird vibe. As someone else mentioned, the cameos felt a little forced. But, I was never bored, and it moved along pretty good. It was a fair summer movie, and I've paid to see much worse over the years.
