I really wanted to like this movie. The best part for me was how much the audience was actually laughing at the awful jokes, and how my sister and I were laughing at the audience incredulously. That is probably what I will remember most about seeing this movie.
My biggest problem with this was the complete and utter lack of emotional stakes, even for a comedy film.
I REALLY like Kristin Wiig, and I really enjoyed Bridesmaids, but even she could not save this.
And yes Ghostbusters 2 is waaaaaaaaaay better. It actually does put its characters in pretty interesting places, at least at the start. WEAK second half though.
