Ghostbusters Ratings & Reviews
Newsday
Joseph Gelmis
Ghostbusters is like romping through Disneyland's haunted house with Bill Murray.
New York Daily News
Kathleen Carroll
Ghostbusters is primarily a showcase for Murray, who slinks through the movie muttering his lines in his usual cheeky fashion and getting off an occasionally hilarious crack that proves he's thoroughly enjoying himself.
The Hollywood Reporter
Arthur Knight
The plotting may be primitive, but it's all carried off with far more style and finesse than one might expect from the creators of Animal House and Meatballs.
Three Movie Buffs
Scott Nash
It's almost impossible not to smile while watching it.
MovieCrypt.com
Kevin A. Ranson
Thirty years later, there are still rumblings of making another sequel, but no one would dare suggest a reboot or re-imagining; Ghostbusters is perfect exactly as it is.
JoBlo's Movie Network
Chris Bumbray
If you've never experienced GHOSTBUSTERS on the big screen, you really need to go see this. If not I'm afraid you'll have to turn in your geek card.
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
On balance, Ghostbusters is a hoot. It's Murray's picture, and in a triumph of mind over matter, he blows away the film's boring special effects with his one-liners.
Mania.com
Rob Vaux
Ghostbusters thrives on the fine line between taking it all seriously enough to be scary, then poking fun at it in the most creative ways possible.
Film Geek Central
Austin Kennedy
GHOSTBUSTERS is a movie that I've seen well over a hundred times and I'm still not sick of it, nor do I think I ever will. It's an iconic comedy that I think has held up very well over the past 30 years.

If for nothing else, deserves to be fondly remembered for bringing the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man into the world.
Cinema Crazed
Felix Vasquez Jr.
An exciting and fun genre hybrid rarely mastered.
People Magazine
Peter Travers
Director Ivan Reitman keeps the Aykroyd-Ramis screenplay zipping right along, creating something like Abbott & Costello Meet the Exorcist. Aykroyd and Murray make the perfect summer tonic for raising spirits.
Christian Science Monitor
David Sterritt
In both the funny and the (mildly) scary moments, the cast does itself proud.
Slant Magazine
Eric Henderson
The movie's tongue-in-cheek (and pre-subprime) satire of surging capitalist hubris is scarcely mitigated by the necessary fairy-tale ending.
TIME Magazine
Richard Schickel
Whoever thought of having evil's final manifestation take the form of a 100-ft. marshmallow deserves the rational mind's eternal gratitude.
Variety
Variety Staff
Only intermittently impressive.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
Essentially a $30 million version of Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy but not at all a bad time, thanks mainly to Bill Murray's incredibly dry line readings and director Ivan Reitman's maintenance of a moderately coherent tone and plotline.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
This movie is an exception to the general rule that big special effects can wreck a comedy.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
There is more attention to special effects than to humor.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
The comedy here is solid gold, Bill Murray is in peak form, and the effects are a lot of fun.
