Product Description

Product Description

Suit up for classic comedy! When kooky, spooky college profs Peter Venkman (Bill Murray), Ray Stantz (Dan Aykroyd) and Egon Spengler (Harold Ramis) lose their university jobs, they decide to go freelance, de-haunting houses in a new ghost removal service. As soon as they open their doors, their first order of business becomes saving beautiful cellist Dana Barrett (Sigourney Weaver) and nerdy Louis Tully (Rick Moranis), who’ve inadvertently opened the gates of hell…right in their own apartment building!

From Amazon.co.uk

Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis wrote the script, but Bill Murray gets all the best lines and moments in this 1984 comedy directed by Ivan Reitman (Meatballs). The three comics, plus Ernie Hudson, play the New York City-based team that provides supernatural pest control, and Sigourney Weaver is the love interest possessed by an ancient demon. Reitman and company are full of original ideas about hobgoblins--who knew they could "slime" people with green plasma goo?--but hovering above the plot is Murray's patented ironic view of all the action. Still a lot of fun, and an obvious model for sci-fi comedies such as Men in Black. --Tom Keogh, Amazon.com

Finally, after the downright awful first release of Ghostbusters on Blu Ray, Sony have gone back to the original master & rescanned it at 4K resolution (the same as Blade Runner The Final Cut, Lawrence Of Arabia, Taxi Driver etc). For those of you who don't know how 4K works, here's a little bit of information.

Firstly, the film was not shot in 4K. It has been rescanned from the original negatives at 4K, then digitally downscaled to 2K, in order for it (along with all the other 4K releases) to be used on 1080p HD systems (HDTV, Blu Ray). This has resulted in a mind blowing level of resolution, never previously seen; 4K = four times the resolution of 1080p.

Now, at the moment the only way to get the full 4K resolution experience, is to have VERY deep pockets. For example, Sonys 4K TVs retail from approx £2'500+ & you'd also need a 4K Blu Ray player, along with a pre-amp capable of processing the 7.1 surround sound.

So, those who've given the 4K version of Ghostbusters negative reviews are either very well off & are playing it through badly set up 4K systems, or they've played it through a standard 1080p HD TV & Blu Ray player.

Overall, this won't put me off purchasing the newly rescanned version of Ghostbusters. I'll just have to spend a bit of time playing with the settings on my HDTV & Blu Ray Player.

NOTE TO AMAZON:
Please stop combining the reviews for previous releases / versions of products. This causes confusion for customers.

Ghostbuster is a brilliant film, and for me this has been Bill Murray's best film, and this is a lovely looking steelbook, but the only negative thing I can say about this release is the Blu-ray quality is not the best, it gets a 2.5/5 from me. But still I love this film and am happy I have it in my collection.

Let me begin my review with a frank statement. I am sick of people calling Ghostbusters 'the funniest comedy of all time'. Why? Because I never once saw Ghostbusters as a comedy. As a young kid, as a teenager, and as an adult I always saw this film as 'a supernatural thriller with humor'.

It's not shot, edited, performed, scored, or designed as a comedy. No way! Aykroyd's genuine interest in the paranormal is where the idea for the movie began. When he teamed with Harold Ramis to write the script there's no doubt in my mind that his intended tone was serious, but with touches of light relief (mainly from Venkman and Louis). Listen carefully to the dialogue, it's peppered with loads of credible scientific jargon and multiple cryptic references of almost Lovecraftian lore. This serious subtext weighs the film down in the thriller category more than comedy.

The trio (and soon quartet) begin as researchers at Columbia University in NYC. But Venkman, only in it for an easy scam, ends up getting them thrown off campus. Ray and Egon have a plan for catching and eliminating paranormal threats to the public. With Venkman's conman skills, they take a chance and found 'Ghostbusters' in a derelict firehouse. Business is pitiful until Dana Barrett shows up claiming a voice from another dimension spoke to her through her fridge. Venkmen, enchanted by her, goes to her apartment to check her/it out. He finds nothing, unaware that behind her fridge is a secret doorway to a rooftop temple built as the venue point for Gozer, a destructive inter-dimensional traveler.

Almost every aspect of Ghostbusters is honed to perfection. Ivan Reitman has never directed a better film. Elmer Bernstein's sumptuous score (often overshadowed by Ray Parker Junior's pop song) is utterly bewitching.

This terrified me when I was little, especially the ghost in the library, and whilst I no longer hide behind the sofa it's still one heck of a film. Sure the effects are a bit dated now but the characters are great! Bill Murray at his best and for me its a close one for Dan Ackroyd (love him in The Blues Brothers)!

The Special Features film about the restoration of Ecto is really interesting and shows Ackroyd's love of the car and his investment in the Ghostbusters story.

This is just a note on the "Ghostbusters [Blu-ray 4K] [1984]" UK release - please note that as Amazon do like to mash all their reviews together rather than keep movie product reviews separate. Anyhoo, just wanted to point one thing out about this release ( you see i made the mistake of believing a youtube review ) Its beautiful, no question the 4K picture is the best yet... the disk however, well, that's all you get. There are NO special features whatsoever on this disc. I was wrongly informed the new features were included, not by amazon though, if you look at the sleeve image there is no mention of extras at all. Totally my bad, I though I'd just add a little heads up if like me you love the extras.

This is without doubt one of the funniest movies ever made. The story stands up to the test of time and the actors timing, in particular the interaction between Murray and Aykroyd, is first class. Every time you see this film you appreciate another joke, or facial expression, that you had previously missed through excessive laughter. The effects are still good enough, (although Sigourney Weaver's dog alter-ego is a little dated) the support characters are believable and, of course, there is always Mr Stay Puff! This is just a first rate piece of entertainment which anybody, any age can enjoy. A must see movie!
