Watched Ghostbusters (2016) by an author from letterboxd.com
Following a ghost invasion of Manhattan, paranormal enthusiasts Erin Gilbert and Abby Yates, nuclear engineer Jillian Holtzmann, and subway worker Patty Tolan band together to stop the otherworldly threat.

On first viewing, I didn’t know if this was a sequel, spin-off or a reboot. Turns out it was none of those.

Instead, it’s a retelling of the original film with the lead characters gender swapped. And if it existed in a vacuum, the worst thing I’d have to say about it is it’s too long. Some good laughs, though.

Andy Garcia is particularly funny.

★★★
