About this movie

When Dr. Peter Venkman (BILL MURRARY) and his Columbia University colleagues (DAN AYKROYD, HAROLD RAMIS, ERNIE HUDSON) are kicked out of their prestigious academic posts, they start a private practice as professional ghost-catchers.Although the three para-scientists are idle for awhile, their television advertisements finally pay off when beautiful Dana Barrett (SIGOURNEY WEAVER) contracts them. It seems her apartment has become the entryway for ghastly ghosts and goofy ghouls hell bent on terrorizing New York City. Soon they're going to her rescue, trying to rid the city of the slimy creatures. GHOSTBUSTERS hit US screens in June of 1984 and went on to become one of the most successful comedy films of all time, spawning a sequel and a popular animated series. MPAA Rating: PG 1984 Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

It's does have and great plot and great characters and comedy, but the ending seems a bit complicate. But still a great comedy.

If you haven't seen this movie, you should be ashamed of yourself. If you've seen this movie and you have it anything less than 5 stars, you should probably watch it again
