![]() Most evident would be that the comedy in the original film was more subtle and mature, while the comedy in this reboot can be gross and childish. Being a reboot of a beloved film, comparisons, fair or otherwise, will be inevitable. While this Kevin character could also be seen as feministic male-bashing, but I did not take offense because of the good-natured comic treatment. In addition, I found the scenes accompanying first part of the closing credits featuring Hemsworth were so embarrassingly funny. But only because he was played by Chris Hemsworth, the against-type casting actually worked to make this character hilarious. The scenes with their pretty but dumb receptionist Kevin were so awkward and cringe-worthy. coming up with their own comic highlights. ![]() They eventually do hit their stride as the quirky badass Holtzmann and the loud excitable Patty.

Kristen Wiig is so geeky, so self- deprecating, so delightfully funny as Erin. ![]() She continues her winning run following "The Heat" and "Spy" (also by director Feig). Melissa McCarthy was not annoying here as Abby, unlike her early films. Never would they have guessed that this case would actually lead to a city-wide ectoplasmic apocalypse. For their first major case, they track down a mentally-disturbed janitor of a local hotel who had been causing malevolent spirits to appear all over New York City. Jillian Holtzmann and her prodigious talent for inventing weapons and New York subway employee Patty Tolan, they formally launch a ghost hunting business, later dubbed by media as "Ghostbusters".
