It's the 30th anniversary right now. For a week or so, you can see it in theaters.
I took the family today. I hadn't seen it in ages. It's a surprisingly good movie. Almost everything that happens on screen is beautifully wrapped up in building out the plot and its universe. Well worth a few minutes, if you happen to have some time in the next little while.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite scene, as a boy and as now, was the scene in the hotel where they take their first ghost. It's wonderful throughout, but gets better and stronger all the way to its conclusion.
ReplyDeleteI remember this movie.
ReplyDeleteReminded me of another movie, Stripes.
I loved both Stripes and Ghostbusters. It turns out I'm almost certain to enjoy anything with Bill Murray. I even liked "Lost in Translation."
ReplyDeleteLost in Translation... ugh. I tried, I really did. But it was so boring!
ReplyDeleteI thought you could cut the tension with a knife in every scene from the first to the last.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, I had exactly your reaction to Beowulf. It's a question of which conflicts we care about the resolution of, I guess.
One trailer accompanying the movie was for Bill Murray's newest piece, St. Vincent.
