Ghostbusters 1984 ★★★★★

First of all, there seems to be a group of people that consider this movie as horror. My question to them: what are you smoking? Because I want some.

From the first minute, this is an amazing comedy. Just things like the confrontation with the first ghost. How Ackroyd and Ramis glance at Murray and he gives a “oh, for fucks sake” sigh and rolls his eyes before going in. Or the “we should split up” dialogue. The uberdry delivery by Murray when he goes “yeah, we can do more damage that way”. Brilliant.

Ghostbusters has all the things an entertainment classic should have
laugh out loud moments: the are you a God-moment
excitement and spectacle by the pound
a villain you love to hate
cameos for easter eggs. Is that Ron Jeremy? And holy shit, it's the dad from Family Matters.
And so on, and so on

Five stars across the board. Well deserved.
