The female version is just a gimmick in the end

Although the box office performance was affected by the boycott by fans of the old version, from the perspective of the film alone, the box office was not ideal for its own reasons. This female version of Ghostbusters has a very clichéd plot, basically a boring plot where the bad guys want to destroy the world for some reason, and the good guys come to save the world for no particular reason. The characters are too simple, only the protagonist Erin (Kristen Wiig) I spent a little bit of pen and ink on the background introduction. She played a teacher who was seeking the title of tenured professor in the school. The other three protagonists hardly have any plot design that can make the audience feel immersed. I think that since you choose It's an all-female role, and another handsome guy was found to play the role of a brainless vase. It can be seen that the producer still has the idea of ​​breaking the gender stereotype. Unfortunately, when you look at it as a whole, it's just a simple reversal of the genders of the characters. Think about these If the role is played by someone of the opposite gender, it is no different. It does not reflect the reflection on gender differences, nor does it show the charm and dilemma of different women, and the jokes are not funny enough. The only commendable may be the special effects production. Well, I can imagine that the effect of watching 3D in a movie theater is quite different from watching it in front of a computer. It seems that the female version is just a publicity stunt. Popcorn didn't pop too well either, still a mediocre movie.

60/100

    Airplane 3. . Girl power! Ghostbusters rock! Personally, I think the male vase is a huge mouse in terms of appearance and consciousness, but the female version of Ghostbusters are so cute, especially the stupid and cool golden retriever mechanics. I gave it to her~~ Mrs. Hei is also super cool~~

    It's a lot of fun...the special effects are great and the songs are great. I especially like the part of the group dance, although it is a bit plagiarized. On Amazon.com, this bizarre book is really on sale again, and I really want to buy a copy. 4 star recommendation

Ghostbusters quotes

  • Dean: I will not let the 12-year reputation of this fine institution be besmirched by you!

    Abby Yates: Oh, come on! Suddenly this place has a classy reputation to uphold? You're only dean now because the least dean went to jail.

    Dean: Are you saying that I'm not qualified?

    Abby Yates: You spell science with a "Y". And what's upsetting about that is I don't think you know that that's wrong.
