32 years after the release and events of Ghostbusters II, Ghostbusters: Afterlife picks up the threads of the story far from the skyscrapers of New York - exploring instead how the estranged family of Egon Spengler reckon with the legacy of being a Ghostbuster... and of course, begin fighting supernatural forces. Starring Carrie Coon, Finn Wolfhard, Mckenna Grace, and Paul Rudd, the film is also directed and produced by Jason Reitman (son of Ivan Reitman, director of the original Ghostbusters films). In this review, we look at how well this holds up, and simply put, whether the fan service works, or doesn't.
