the best, the beautiful, the only.....(random comments on a classic)

Rating: 10/10 (2 August 2000)

I had started thinking about this comment on ghostbusters and believing that I would write a great review on what, I feel to be, one of the funniest movies ever. I realized that I can't write anything that would live up to the movie. So I'm just gonna spout. I think I've seen this movie about 400 times since it came out, and it never gets old. I guess this is a modern classic. What is so amazing is that after watching the dvd commentaries on 'busters, it feels that much more special, since from it's original conception it's had every chance to become one of the worst films of all time...but yet it turns out to be pure genius. It's no wonder Akroyd tries so hard to keep the ghostbusters flame burning. The way the entire movie comes together is amazing...everything works. Casting, effects, music. This is the way movies are supposed to be made, and just aren't anymore. It's sad, really. Well, there's always ghostbusters 3... right?
