Ghostbusters Reviews: 10 Reactions You Need To Know

Arguably the greatest thing about the original Ghostbusters film is the fact that the main cast have such great chemistry together, even if the movie does lean more heavily on Bill Murray.

Fans and naysayers alike have been concerned that Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones would lack the friendship factor of the original foursome, but - according to the reviews - that isn't the case.

As Allison Willmore writes in her Buzzfeed review:

"Jones, McCarthy, McKinnon, and Wiig are so good together - and in ways that are distinctively theirs and not recycled from the past."

Barry Hertz, from the Globe and Mail, throughly agrees:

"From the moment they all cram into a room together - this time above a Chinese restaurant, versus the original’s abandoned firehall - it’s comedic gold."

The A.V. Club's Jesse Hassenger even went as far as to claim that Paul Feig gives the main foursome more love than Ivan Reitman did his own cast, thus allowing their chemistry to come to the surface in ways the original 1984 film didn't allow:

"The four women share a palpable enjoyment of each other’s company, and Feig may love his cast and characters more than Reitman, who ceded much of the 1984 movie to Bill Murray (as one does when Bill Murray is around)."

Good news, of course, given that this is sure to be the first in a long line of Ghostbuster movies; if the chemistry's right, that's half of the battle won.
