Maybe change title to 'Ghostbusters: Fan Service'

This latest 'GHOSTBUSTERS' sequel relies a lot of fanservice to carry the movie instead of having an actual story.
It has its moments though. The villain's back story is a bit interesting when the movie actually slows down to get to the plot. There were a couple jokes or even whole segments that did make me laugh. The opening scene is actually the best part of the movie. It's creepy and has this eerie atmosphere that the rest of the movie never really lives up to.
It's nice to see the original cast together once more but again, it is just pure fan-service and not particularly inspired. Bill Murray especially looked bored to be there. Paul Rudd is okay being in this movie. The lead teen actor McKenna Grace isn't bad either.
Younger fans will probably enjoy 'Frozen Empire' better than I did. It's bright and colorful and some of the ghosts look creative.
