Rating: 8/10 (30 December 2005)

Ivan Reitman's Ghost Busters is a classic film of the 1980s and still doesn't seem dated (as of December 2005). The script is really strong (very funny dialogue here), which superior production and costume design. However, the main reason this film works is the proper casting of the actors (Dan Aykroyd, Sigourney Weaver, Harold Ramis, Rick Moranis, Annie Potts, Ernie Hudson, with Bill Murray is the best here as the comic relief character - Doctor Peter Venkman). In essence, this is a great example of an ensemble cast working well together. And kudos goes to Elmer Bernstein for a classic score, and to Ray Parker Jr. for the memorable theme song, "Ghostbusters".
