I barely remember this movie.

I actually have this DVD in my Collection. A funny movie (albeit, full of cheese) and the Special Effects of the time were pretty good.

Cheesy, but an 80's classic. Especially since I was a fan of the cartoon.

LOL i love this dorky movie.......

This was HUGE for its time. Had a good cast and some special effects.

Ghostbusters is great, but I realize that might be because I grew up with it. I loved just about anything Ghostbusters when I was a kid. Not only did I watch the movies, I watched the cartoons every Saturday morning.

I kinda liked Rick Moranis as the very possessed Louis, aka Vinz Clortho, Keymaster of Gozer.

Great show, very funny and one of Bill Murray's best. All of the cast was good, too.

was good...

funny...classic in my house

who yuh gunna call?

This was one of my favorite movies of my childhood.

LOVE BOTH

Classic

One of my favorite flicks when I was in grade school.

BILL MURRAY IS ALWAYS A HOOT!!

Great cartoon and even better movie! Bill Murray stood out in an all star cast. Dan Aykroyd was pretty good too.

not that funny but liked it when i was younger

Another Classic... !! I always loved Slimer.. and the giant marshmallow man

A love all the ghostbuster movies!!

The second movie is better.

Classic favorite

I really liked it in 1984...pretty bad special effects nowadays

Classic comedy movie. Slimmer was great.

ghostbusters one is one of the best movies ever made. yet i find i don't want to rewatch it right now. i don't know why.

Eh. Its well known but never been one of my favs

good over all movie

Gotta love this movie

It had it all;
comedy, drama, stupidity (marshmallow man), hereos, romance, and a happy ending.

BEST MOVIE EVER!!!!

I said it before, not a huge fan of slime in movies unless we're talking about Ghostbusters. What's not to love about Slimer? and the Stay-Puft marshmallow man was sooo cute!

I race to the TV when this comes on. XD
I think that Bill Murray's character is a bit boring, but the events and support characters make this film.

One of the all time greats

who you gonna call?

I think it holds up and the characters work well together in a preposterous plot.

State Puff Marshmallow Man is evil!

the green ghost is awesome

WHO YA GUNNA CALL!?!?!?!

Good, but not great. Oddly, I don't even really think of it as a comedy as much as I think of it as a "summer movie"--I remember it came out during the summer and it seemed like the type of movie everyone was supposed to see. I didn't see it then; I had to catch it on TV years later.

 Enjoyed this movie when it was released in the 80s it is hard to watch now. The special effects dominate the film and the soundtrack is very much of the era. (Semi-disco?) Bill Murray was just O.K. and the rest of the cast is just O.K.  

Classic! What's not to like?

A cult classic with some wonderful one-liners. I still can't believe that Sigourney Weaver is in this one. Seems like such a far cry from Aliens....Great movie.

I liked this movie. It had a decent plot for a funny movie, which is often a rare thing in a good comedy.

A funny movie considering it is from the 80's. Now I am just looking back I'm like that wasn't that great but I loved it as a kid.

This was one of the worst movies I've ever seen.I never understood its popularity.Might appeal to 5th graders,or adults with zero sophistication.

i loved ghostbusters movies... lovely

I loved this movie when I was younger and watched it religiously, which is why I must give it four stars. Now that I'm older I really don't appreciate it as much or find it nearly as entertaining as I once did, but the film sticks out as one of the favorites of my pre-teen years.

Good fun, well written and acted. The sequel is weaker, but still worth a look.

The top grossing film of 1984, Ghostbusters (directed by Ivan Reitman) was a nice mix of child and adult comedy. Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, and Ernie Hudson are paranormal investigators (or ghostbusters) in New York City. The quartet capture ghouls, ghosts and other goblins in portable containers and keep them permanently secured at the office which is held down by their secretary (Annie Potts) until an unbeliever shuts off the power releasing the carnage back on the city. All this is just a prelude to the big showdown with Gozer the demon who has taken over a building and two of its tenants, Murray's love interest played by Sigourney Weaver and the resident pathetic CPA (Rick Moranis). What makes this film work is the chemistry between Murray, Aykroyd and Ramis as they counter balance each other's personalities. Moranis was perfectly cast as well. Moreover, the comedy still holds up today as do the special effects. My only complaint is that the addition of Ernie Hudson felt forced as if the producers decided halfway through the movie to add an African-American actor. The bottom line is that Ghostbusters remains a funny film even after almost 20 years.

Original and funny. Bill Murray and Dan Akaroid (did I spell that right?) rock! Love the fact that the evil monster at the end is a marshmallow guy.
