Ghostbusters (2016)

Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon

Ghostbusters is a highly successful movie from 1984 and now we are presented with a new updated version of the classic. The movie features the same story about four scientists who believe in ghosts while nobody else does. Strange things start to happen and the city is taken over by the supernatural, giving the scientists the chance to fight it with their inventions.
The movie was strongly criticized especially because of the gender change in the roles. Instead of four male characters as protagonists, they now decided to put four females in their place. This is important for representation and my personal feelings are positive towards this change. They have also swapped the dumb female secretary for a male one.
Overall the film is the same as before, with a few updated jokes and, of course, modern special effects.
My favourite quote is from the scene where Kevin, the secretary, decides to create a logo for the Ghostbusters and he comes up with the old one, but with breasts and, when everyone looks shocked and disappointed he says: “Is it the boobs you don't like? Because I can make them... bigger”.
