Watch our Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire review by Tom Jorgensen. Opens in theaters March 22, 2024.
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire races onto thin ice overburdened with disparate, uninspired ideas – and no one behind or in front of the camera quite knows what to do once the movie’s flailing in the water. The new generation of Ghostbusters have to give up too much time to an overcomplicated plot – time that could’ve been used to embellish the bedrock elements of comedy-horror that the 1984 original deployed so well. If all you need to feel good about busting is ghosts, jumpsuits, and proton packs, you may have some fun, but Frozen Empire makes one thing clear: the franchise should be put in cold storage until someone can figure out how to do justice to the central concept without Murray, Aykroyd, Hudson, and Potts dropping by to prevent mass hysteria.
