Ghouls and anonymous Internet commentators — who have flocked to their thumbs-down buttons ahead of the film's release — share plenty of characteristics. Each is likely to drool and quickly disappear when you turn on the lights. Feig's "Ghostbusters" ain't afraid of either.
Why should he be, anyway? In his corner he has the best comic actor of the decade, Melissa McCarthy, the klutzy wit of Kristen Wiig, "Saturday Night Live" standout Kate McKinnon and the big-screen breakthrough of Leslie Jones, the film's secret weapon.
His "Ghostbusters" makes some winks to the uproar that preceded his gender-swapping film, but it mostly steers straight ahead, too busy being funny to worry much about misogynist detractors. It does, however, pay a lot — too much — attention to placating "Ghostbusters" fans with the familiar showdowns and iconography of the original two films.

Really? How many ghost busters fans wanted to see Slimer and Stay Puft forced in? or another hearse? where is the creativity? That is on the film makers, not the demands of fans.
