Me either. Although it's really interesting to see metacrowd reviews. I think it's entirely possible that the "if you dont like it, you hate women" backlash may be making some reviewers give it lukewarm positive reviews to avoid the hassle.
*FWIW, I understand why the backlash exists because there are a LOT of assholes who have gone on and on about how it shouldn't have been remade with women.
It's entirely possible as well. But the trailers give me no hope for that.

Re: Ghostbusters (2016)
These guys give solid reviews. I'll probably see it based on this.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

If you see this movie based on the "positive" reviews, you are all bigger idiots than I thought.

Same with the crestfallen Bernie supporters when he endorsed HRC today. No-dog-in-this-fight schadenfreude is addictive.

Nah but this is a whole new level of just horrible. No need for th majority of it. Be wonderful if they took that energy and spent it on something that needs vocal support.
