Kevin says GHOSTBUSTERS: FROZEN EMPIRE Kinda rocks!

After a successful reboot three years ago, the Ghostbusters are back.

The story follows the new team trying to revitalize the ghost busting business in New York City. But when an ancient evil breaks loose and threatens to freeze the world, the new and old Ghostbusters answer the call.

If GHOSTBUSTERS: AFTERLIFE was a tribute to the 1984 original, FROZEN EMPIRE feels more like an homage to 1989’s GHOSTBUSTERS II. It suffers from similar set-up and narrative problems, trying to offer a fresh take on once-quirky characters from the previous film.

There are some fun moments, and there’s definitely ghosts getting busted throughout the film, but too much of the plot relies on ignoring things that happened in the original. I mean, does nobody remember the Twinkie discussion?

The nostalgia elements work to a degree but sometimes feel sidelined, while new characters seem more at home in the failed 2016 reboot.

Still, it’ll do for throwback mainstream comedy you can take the kids to. GHOSTBUSTERS: FROZEN EMPIRE gets three proton packs out of five. I’m Kevin Carr, and that’s the way I see it.
