Ghostbusters Afterlife

Actors: Carrie Coon, Finn Wolfhard, Mckenna Grace, Paul Rudd, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Annie Potts, Sigourney Weaver

Rating: 9 out of 10, A lot of nostalgic fun as it went back to connect with the peerless first film. Egon’s grandchildren assume his role in protecting the world from old friend, Zuul; this time from an isolated midwestern farm. The movie captures a lot of the silly fun associated with the first film and the young female lead steals every scene she’s in as the nerdy granddaughter channeling her grandad’s oddity and genius. The rest of the cast is also on track with Paul Ruud in the Rick Moranis part more than up to the task. The final fifteen minutes is as satisfying a cinematic reunion time that I can remember. Loved the movie.

MVP: Mckenna Grace as Phoebe, Egon Clone
