"What's Up With These Old People And Their Movie Reviews?" - Growing up in the 80's, that's what I thought when my Uncle said, "That movie was Ok, but not as good as Bonnie and Clyde (1967)" . . . As a young person, I thought, "WTH is Bonnie and Clyde?" (not having seen it) . . . Fast Forward to 2024 - I guess now We're the "Old People" ("Past my bed time, I'll finish it tomorrow") - lol

I've watched Axel f twice now, and I absolutely loved it, brings back lots of nostalgic moments , pays homage def to 1 and 2, love the soundtrack, I see they used a slightly updated version from the intro track from part 2 also, brilliant laughs, I just wish they had bogermill as a cameo in the film. Much much better than part 3 for sure. 8/10 for me

I agree but the energy was just off and completely weird. I know a lot of people enjoyed the new movie but I didn't really see the point after watching it. I don't want to watch Beverly Hills Cop for tacky family drama and it is clear all the older actors are really just not a good fit for this sort of movie anymore. This should have been a fresh production, a new IP, in the same spirit with new actors and stories.

I thought they played off each other surprisingly very well.

The other problem is that theyre such blatant cash grabs. Like i know a huge part of all big budget hollywood films is making money but that's ALL these are about and it iust leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Im dreading the day when they announce back to the future bc those are my favorite films of any era and i known they'll do it sooner or later.

Never saw the OG Top Gun as I just wasn't interested at the time, and while I think Tom Cruise is a good actor, I've never been a big enough fan to see all his work. I have no plans to watch Axel F, as after watching the train wreck that was part 3, any good will has been long lost for me and that franchise. As for Ghost Busters, I just finished watching that a few days ago, and it was one of the worst movies I've seen in a very long time. Afterlife was OK, and that is being kind, but I saw no need for another film and was shocked when the trailer for Frozen Empire arrived. Way to many characters, some of which gave it their all, while others seemed to phone it in, a story that was dumb AF, and it seemed 100% a cash grab.

Eddie Murphy is no longer a comedian has has not been for a long time in his life. So, how can you take a man that is no longer a comedian and get him to do a partial comedy? Just would not work. Also, I agree, I would not think the BHPD has cop cars that look like that. (LOL) I never been there, and I do agree with that. (LOL) People have said that the latest Ghostbusters movie is a waste of time. Problems is that, I have no idea to disagree with them. Even if Dan Akroyd is not much in the writing. Dan Akroyd is the driving force of Ghostbusters. But I see how Sony is not trusting him to do his own movie. Do recall that he wrote the original story then he and the director made their own version and we pretty much saw that ever since. So, what kind of movie do you have? One for kids. Ghostbusters was made for all ages, not just for kids. But tell that to studio corporate environments even about Star Wars and Star Trek, and they would not believe you. They are also the ones that said that Friday the 13th had no script. But they gave that to others thinking the same things and those movies are almost laughable. So, I am happy that you saw these movies, but I cannot say I'd want to watch them. I did see TopGun Maverick and was not happy. How do you take a man at the rank of Captain and throw him out of a bar. Are you kidding?? Those men and women who knows their futures. So, ya, and the CG ya, I hear ya. LOL

As a fan it pains me to say this but I have to be honest - Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is a bad movie. The film is total a mess. It's an overstuffed, poorly paced, confusing, convoluted movie with an unnecessarily complicated plot. There are far too many characters, some of which have been needlessly shoehorned into the story. Many if the characters are also very bland, with very little personality, charisma, likability, humor or chemistry. It's overstuffed with unnecessary dialogue, dull subplots, pointless characters and scenes which go on for far too long. It's not funny either. I didn't laugh once during the movie, and neither did the audience I was watching it with. It's not frightening either. There are no scares in the film. Laughs and scares are two things you expect from a Ghostbusters film, but this latest entry in the series is completely devoid of any. Jason Reitman and Gil Kenan may be talented directors, but they're the wrong people to be writing Ghostbusters films. Afterlife was mediocre at best, but Frozen Empire is just plain bad. With a heavy heart, I rate this film 3 out of 10. I feel a lot of fans are in denial about just how bad this film is.
