Enjoyed it better
Much better than the previous all girl cast version. Watchable.

Better than the 2016 Dumpster Fire
Much better but still not good and still woke. Lots of diversity for a film set in small town middle of nowhere USA. Have to have that mixed race relationship forced in everything now. Then we have the stated gender neutral villain who is clearly female. The genius do anything female characters surrounded by idiot males. The movie itself is full of bad writing. Original ghostbusters, full grown men could barely carry the packs on their backs from the weight and firing it almost pushed them over. Here its no problem for a 12 year old 4ft 80 pound girl. Its watchable maybe once but still not good.

Some mention of climate change, and mild feminism
There was some implication of climate change, during the scene where they were checking the seismic vibrations and such. There was also a sense that the male father figure was more or less useless, and the tomboyish girl was automatically good at fighting ghosts.
It was watchable though. Nowhere near as bad as the all-girl one.

Meh
I watched this movie two years ago and thought it was decent. I liked it a whole lot less the second time through this year (2024). The call backs to the old cast and films were what made this good the first time. It’s not worth sitting through a crappy film full of insufferable female characters, buffoonery male characters, dei and a gender neutral villain just to see the old guys one last time. I’ll take my Ghostbusters in the OG flavor, thanks.
