Ghostbusters

They decide to set up shop in an old firehouse and become Ghostbusters, trapping pesky ghosts, spirits, haunts, and poltergeists for money. But when a woman (Sigourney Weaver) stumbles upon a gateway to another dimension, one which will release untold evil upon the city, the Ghostbusters are called on to save the Big Apple.

Press Reviews

  • Chicago Sun-Times (Roger Ebert)

    "Ghostbusters" is a head-on collision between two comic approaches that have rarely worked together very successfully.

  • Chicago Sun-Times (Roger Ebert)

    This movie is an exception to the general rule that big special effects can wreck a comedy.

    The leads' chemistry is almost, well, spooky, Dan Aykroyd's nerdy enthusiasm rubbing deliciously against a persona-perfecting turn from Bill Murray - and there's even the odd surprise.

  • Variety (USA)

    Ghost Busters is a lavishly produced ($32 million) but only intermittently impressive all-star comedy lampoon of supernatural horror films.
