First of all I love this movie. In my opinion this the one of the best comedies ever made if not the best. It holds up even today. The jokes are still funny. They didn't become dated or over used. I'm saying lines right along with the movie and I haven't watched it in 15 years. Best movie ever! I was so excited to hear it was coming out on Blu-ray. Finally one of the greats in Hi-Def. I bought it the day it came out along with the video game too. But I put it in the player and hated it. IT LOOKS HORRIBLE!!! The DVD looks better. It is not Hi-Def what so ever. Why does Sony, the inventor of the technology, put out such substandard products. I mean admit it or not PS3 sucks! I used to own one before I sold it I should know. The games suck and so do the graphics. The fact that it is a Blu ray player doesn't even save it because that is substandard too. Now this. They just took the DVD version and threw it on a Blu ray and charged twice as much for it. They didn't clean it up at all. They didn't do anything to it. I was very upset and let down. It's even the 25th anniversary and they did nothing to the movie. And before anyone says it's me not the disc, I have a Samsung stand alone Blu ray player and a Samsung HDTV hooked up with HDMI cables. The TV is 46", 60,000:1 contrast ratio and 120hz and it rules! Other Blu rays look awesome. So awesome it should be illegal but not this one. DO NOT BUY THIS. SAVE THE $10 AND BUY THE DVD. I never thought I would say that and I never write reviews but I love this movie so much I had to let everyone know. Best Buy is the best. I buy everything from them. The TV and Blu ray player came from them. But I wish I had not bought this Blu ray. BTW the video game is awesome. If you like the movie and play games you will love the game. That is one man's opinion. Listen to it or not.
What's great about it: the bonus features are very cool
What's not so great: The picture quality is horrible

'Ghostbusters' is one of the best comedies of the 1980's, and was followed by a sequel that was almost just as funny. Great acting performances shine in this piece. I recommend this movie, but the re-mastered high-def transfer on this new version seems too light to me, and I still prefer the original dvd release. This new version also seems to be missing some of the extras on the original collector's dvd release.

It's 25 yrs since the Ghostbusters put on the proton packs and Sony has done a great job releasing the blu-ray with the video game release. The movie itself is a classic the extra features are great for any new or old fan. If you have a PS3 when you purchase this blu-ray disc, it also provides a downloadable option for a Ghostbusters Theme for the PS3. It is well worth the purchase.
What's great about it: Updated bonus features, great price
What's not so great: does not come with standard DVD as well.

This is one of my favorite movies.
Ghostbusters follows a team of scientists who become supernatural exterminators. The team cleans up ghosts plauging New York City and come face to face with a monster bent on destroying the world.
Ghostbusters is played for laughs and is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Bill Murray, Harold Ramis, Dan Ackroyd and Ernie Hudson all do great jobs as the Ghostbusters. The movie also has some nice visual effects, they may look dated but in the mid-80's these were Oscar worthy visual effects. The creature designers did a superb job in creating monsters that were scary enough to be taken seriously but not so frightening that they look out of place in a comedy.
Ghostbusters is a film the entire family can enjoy. Action, fun and laughs all in a single movie. Ghostbusters is one for the ages.

If you were a kid,teen,or adult in the 80's you already know about the Ghosbusters.The movie was written by co-stars Dan Aykroyd who plays as Ray Stantz,and Harold Ramis as Egon Spengler.It's about three eccentric New York City parapsychologists turned-ghost exterminators.The movie also stars Bill Murray as Peter Venkman,Ernie Hudson as Winston Zeddemore,Sigourney Weaver as Dana Barrett,Annie Potts as Janine Melnitz,William Atherton as Walter Peck,and funnyman Rick Moranis as Louis Tully.But the characters,setpieces,and laughs are not the only things that make this movie memberal,it's also the movie's soundtrack.So if it's Ray Parker Jr's theme song or something by composer Elmer Berstein,the music is what makes the movie more enjoyable.
What's great about it: Actors,Setpieces,Funny,Music,Entertaining
