Rating: Summary: THE FUNNIEST FILM EVER MADE! Review: I first saw this masterpiece when I was about 8 years old in 1984. I was hooked then, and I'm still hooked now. This film has more quotable lines than any other film ever! Murray's performance has to be one of the finest and funniest in cinematic history. But also give the other actors their due, everyone is superb in this film. This film belongs on every serious film fans top 10. "Somebody saw a cockroach up on twelve." "That's gotta be some cockroach?" "Yeah! Bite your head off man!" I cannot overstate how great a piece of cinema this is. Please, try and see it. For your own sake. You owe it to yourself.
Rating: Summary: Kids Love It Review: I'm a kid, adults, and I would like to recommend this as a holiday gift, it's so good I think they should watch it for their birthday! Remember, I'm speaking for all the kids in my class, which makes 27. Bill Murray is one of the funniest, he even brightens up Ghost Busters 2, which I thought was boring. I warn you, this is not a thriller, so the young ones (not me)can have the lights out. It's a spoof, and a good one-even though it's occasionly scary. So go and see it!
Rating: Summary: The funniest movie I have EVER seen! Review: This is a wonderful horror/comedy movie! It's strange plot twist of ancient legends makes it even better.
Rating: Summary: The Best Of All! Review: I love this movie! Me, and my family watch this movie about 50 - 100 times a year. I mean it's funny, cool, and scary. It's perfect for horror fans or family movie fans anybody who likes movies will like this one!

Rating: Summary: One of the funniest movies of all time Review: As the years have passed, "Ghostbusters" has unfortunately tended to be shuffled off as nothing more than an "80's" phenomenon. But it's much more than Slimer and the pop soundtrack. Wonderfully goofy and original, this movie has some of the best one-liners ever spoken on the big screen. Harold Ramis gives one of the greatest deadpan comic performances and Rick Moranis is hilarious as a nerdy accountant who involuntarily becomes the servant of an ancient doomsday god. This is the missing link between "Airplane" and "Men In Black". If you haven't seen it since it was in theaters, watch it and be surprised at how good it really is.

Rating: Summary: Get ready, it's time to kick some ectoplasm! Review: When three parapsychologists (Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Harol Ramis) are kicked out of a local university's science department, they pool their remaining cash and set up shop as Ghost Busters. Using high-tech nuclear-powered backpacks, they set about cleaning out New York's resident ghost polulation. (for a modest fee) However, trouble is brewing - Dana Barret (Sigourney Weaver) finds demons in her refigerator, and it looks like the end of the world is coming all too quickly. A brilliant mix of science fiction and comedy, with special effects that have to be seen to be believed, this film was a runaway hit upon it's release. Directed by Robert Zemeckis, of "Howard Stern's Private Parts" fame, with a sountrack by the esteemed Leonard Bernstein. A Must-have! END
Rating: Summary: After 20 Years, "Ghostbusters" Is Still Saving The World Review: "We've been going about this all wrong. This Mr. Stay-Puft is o.k. He's a sailor. He's in New York. We get this guy layed we won't have any trouble." - Pimpin' ain't easy in "Ghostbusters"After 20 years since its 6/8/84 release, "Ghostbusters" became the biggest surprise hit of the summer of '84 and has generated a hit sequel, a popular cartoon series, a #1 hit single, by Ray Parker Jr., thats an ode to parapsychology, the world over (I ain't 'fraid of no ghost!) and has mass produced legions of no ghost t-shirts. The film showcases the best talent from its principal cast and "Ghostbusters" is one of Ivan Reitman's best films to date. After being kicked out of NYU, three Parapsychologists decide to go into business for themselves, becoming an elite team of paranormal investigators & iliminators known, thru out the New York tri-state area, as the "Ghostbusters". There first case is a big one, as an ancient evil, known as Gozer, the Gozarian, awakens and is hellbent on ruling Earth, starting with the great state of New York. The cast is great, with Bill Murray giving one of his best performances to date. Writer, Dan Aykroyd wrote "Ghostbusters" with John Belushi, Eddie Murphy and John Candy in mind. But, with the tragic death of Belushi, the meteoric popularity of Murphy (and his salary), & Candy not coming to grips with his character (he wanted Louis Tully to speak in a German accent with him owning, like, five Rottwielers for some unknown reason) Aykroyd retooled "Ghostbusters" with Murray, himself, Harold Ramis, and Ernie Hudson as the team and Rick Moranis as the accountant geek who has a diehard crush on Dana Barrett (Sigourney Weaver). The film is loaded with one-liners that would fit right at home emblazoned on a t-shirt. The effects hold up well over the twenty years and I only spotted two or three effects that actually look cheesy. After the film became a success, in late summer'84 & as a test, the producers decided to take the commercial the "Ghostbusters" use in the film (Are you troubled by strange noises in the middle of the night?), taking the 555 number and exchanging it with an operating toll free 800 number. The results were 1,000 calls an hour, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, over a six week test. The total of all calls is approx. 1,008,000 calls!! The word Gozer comes from an actual haunting in New England, that, oddly enough, is also the film "Poltergeist" is loosely based on. Thru out the haunting the word Gozer would appear, mysteriously, on walls and belongings all thru the house with no essential meaning of the word. The 1999, 15th anniversary DVD release of "Ghostbusters" is the best format to watch the film (rumor has it that Columbia/Sony may release a 20th anniversary edition in late '04 early '05). The DVD features deleted scenes, trailers, a great trivia track that runs at the bottom of the screen while the movie is being shown, and commentary by Harold Ramis (co-writer), Ivan Reitman (director), and Michael C. Gross (co-producer). "Ghostbusters" is still a great film that deserves shelf space in any great DVD collection. After 20 years, they still are ready to believe you.
