Ghostbusters reboot with all-female leads

Going tomorrow only because my son is now into ghostbusters

That Robocop remake was really bad, only slightly better than the Conan remake.

 

[karamazov80]

I thought it was a decent movie. Just pretty by the numbers really, and not at all a spiritual successor to the original.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

The mirror scene was probably the only great scene in the Robocop remake. It's the only memorable moment, imo.

I wonder where Thor the Dark World was sitting at on the tomatometer during this period before it's theatrical release.

 

[karamazov80]

I would agree with you if I had any memory of that scene myself

I just remember bits and pieces. I thought Keaton was pretty good in it.

But at least TDW isn't painful to sit thru.

Yeah, it was really brilliant, it was straight up horror.



But yeah it was the only good thing about it, I wouldn't say it's bad though, just bland and harmless, I'd rather rewatch that one than watching the gurlbusters.

The controversy will either destroy GB or give it a huge opening.

 

[GasparZizou]

I think this lukewarm reception is going to harm its opening more than the controversy itself, the controversy was priceless fuel for them.

It feels like the positive reviews want to say it's bad but they can't, so they're going "y-yeah it's ok, I guess".

Some critics might genuinely like the film, but some critics might give the film a good review to get their review and name on the DVD cover and on the commercials on TV.

Or to avoid a herd of screaming badgers with pitchforks, tar, and feathers.

Remember The Lone Ranger came out a BOMB right out the gate. This does not appear the same as many thought it would.

It was decent enough and I didn't end up hating it as I did watching the trailers. I have no love for it but it wasn't insulting either, like that other cyborg movie..

 

[jye4ever]

Feig reminds me of Raimi in his interviews.

 

[kryptonianmutie]

76% right now. So the rotten crap Sony has shown us is the other 24%?

If you look at the Top critics scores on RT it's at 50% rotten, and falling.

True, and there's usually 30+ top critics so some people are holding their reviews back. I'd be willing to believe this is better than the trailers if
a) The movie clips and TV spots looked entertaining
and
b) the cast had made me believe there was a good movie here instead throwing out insults in response to criticisms.

 

[Rorywan]

Honestly it is (a lot better than the trailers).
Just like any movie you can tear this one to shreds of you want to.
But see it as a bit of fun entertainment and you will enjoy it a lot.
