I expected more from this film.

I really did.

Starring Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon with the former as a woman who discovers her ex-boyfriend is a spy and the latter her best friend, this is meant to be a comedy/action film, but rarely delivers on either: I didn't find the (supposed to be) funny bits all that amusing, while the action bits seemed to belong to a different film entirely: one that had a hard R rating, perhaps.

Better than I thought it was going to be
A film that was ripe to be an utter cringe-fest but thankfully kept it to a minimum. It's difficult not to draw comparison's with Girls' Trip but it holds its own. There are some laugh out loud moments but what you see in the trailer is pretty much what you get. The story is pretty predictable, but then again it's not supposed to be full of twists and turns, and Kate McKinnon is the star of the show.

So let’s get on with my thoughts of Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters and it’s female leads, Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon. For starters, I’m not sure why people are negative towards female lead characters, they do all well together and the laughs certainly come through during the movie. McCarthy is brilliant as Abby Yates with her hysterical one-liners, Kristen Wiig is perfectly suited as Erin Gilbert “Doctor of Particle Physics” (look out for the Harold Ramis cameo, of sorts, in one of her scenes).
