Rafer Guzman

Newsday

After so many mishandled or abandoned series — from “Fantastic Beasts” to “Narnia” to “Percy Jackson” — it’s nice to see one that’s heading in the right direction.

Rated: 3/4

Wenlei Ma

The Nightly (AU)

Until Ghostbusters decides if it wants to throw its lot in with one era or the other, it’s always going to be between two worlds. And that purgatory makes for a middling experience that doesn’t quite satisfy.

Rated: 2.5/5

Chicago Reader

This newest franchise entry is built on nostalgia and a stacked cast, but not enough to make it worth watching.

Offers frosty fun but lacks narrative cohesion. Enjoyable for fans, but not a standout in the supernatural fantasy genre.

Rated: C

Lainey Gossip

It's just so frustrating to see the shape of something that could fully work as a 21st century spin on Ghostbusters, but watch it whittle down to the dullest version of itself.
