    Ghostbusters.

    Very 80s and very dated and with some fucken horrifically bad special effects.

    Bill Murray bloody good as always but the rest is nowhere near as good as I remember. Some movies are best left alone.

    2.5 SNL actors out of 5

    Wtf
    I assumed at first you were reviewing the #metoo men hating rehash from a couple years ago, but you actually mean the 80’s classic?
    What was wrong with it? Not enough James Bond references? Was Rose from The Last Jedi in it?

    Nothing 'wrong' as such apart from what I've already mentioned. Go back and watch it and see what you think.

    I have, watch it every couples years as it’s a classic film

    I hadn't seen it in years.

    I used to love it but now it barely gets a pass.

    you are a deadshit. And your taste is in your asshole. I watched it with the kids about a month ago, and it's still gold.

    We were driving back from whakatane this week and the theme popped up on the radio. Kids actually knew it! ( they are only 5 and 7), never seen the movie but it’s beeh played at school before.
    They couldn’t yell ‘Ghostbusters!’ loud enough..

    It didn't do it for me. Get over it.

    Others 80s movies absolutely shit all over it.

    It’s ok, not everybody can have good taste.

    Ghostbusters is still a fun comedy IMO.

    Ben Gazzara in the middle of his aborted hit, in The Killing of a Chinese Bookie, calling his strip club and failing over the telephone to organise the musical numbers - that man deserved some big naturals.

    Watched The Shape of Water last night. Was ok, I guess. Don't think Best Picture worthy though.

    Just saw Black Panther. Other than GOTG not a fan of Marvel etc but I thought this was one of the better ones. Still just a 3.5 out of 5. The 100% ratings are utterly absurd for a flick like this.

    What I did find weird is that despite the awesome tech they were still fighting each other with spears.

    The casting was mostly very good IMHO, except for Forrest Whitaker. Christ that guy has become a joke.

    I've never known an actor so crap and uninteresting appear in so many decent flicks. Thank fuck he's rarely the star. Him blowing up on Rogue One was one of the great moments of the film.

    Oh dear, Mr. Caine, oh dear oh dear.

    For such great actor, he has been in a shed load of shite films. For every Harry Brown there is at least a couple of Swarms.

    As he said himself, he’s got bills to pay. Even that horrible Jaws movie bought him a house, so he doesn’t think poorly of it.

    @kirwan Yeah, he's always been very self aware although you'd think he'd have earned enough by now.
