    The transfer to Blu-ray went amazingly well. Sure there is a little grain and the 80s' effects were more visible but that was part of the movie. It was made in 1984 after all. All in all it's a must buy for any Ghostbusters fan young and old.

    I bought this by mistake. I thought that this was 4k but this is mastered in 4k. Very confusing. BestBuy was awesome in letting me return the dvd.

    The movie itself is a classic no complaints there. The 4K transfer though leaves something to be desired

    Recently purchased a 4k system and have started upgrading my library. Pulled the trigger and it didn't disappoint. The upgraded clarity really stands out and the HDR really makes the color pop. The effects stand up well, although the plasma streams look minutely outdated. Not enough to distract from the overall viewing experience, though. I would highly recommend this title for anyone looking to upgrade.

    A franchise without a franchise…lol. Ghostbusters was a hit the moment it landed back in 1984. The theme was everywhere (I remember being at a football game where the marching band was playing the theme during halftime) and the catchphrase “who you gonna call” blasted its way into pop culture hard and fast. The funny thing about ghostbusters is that it hasn’t been something that’s has been repeatable throughout the years. Ghostbusters 2 was an ok follow-up except it wasn’t funny. There have been a few ghostbusters cartoon shows but their appeal is…limited. Ghostbusters answer the call wasn’t funny and it wasn’t engaging and having the original cast in cameos playing different parts - while a minimal element of the new film - didn’t play well with the masses. Ghostbusters Afterlife is something that stands alone and respects the past but didn’t set the world (or the franchise) on fire. Maybe Ghostbusters isn’t a franchise after all? Maybe being a one and done isn’t a bad thing? Regardless, being a one and done when your one is as successful as this film has been is quite the feather in the cap. This is an impressive HD presentation, especially considering the state of how special effects were created and rendered in the early eighties. Is there film grain? Yes. Is the picture inconsistent? Yea…in a sfx heavy film like this, you better believe it. Is it worth the upgrade? If you can find the film on sale (like over Black Friday…$9.99, thanks BEsst Buy for some Best pricing!) than yea…the film LOOKS better than it ever has in 4k and it SOUNDS better. Reference quality? Nah…but that’s the problem with upgrading older movies to a technology that far exceeds what existed when the film was created. You don’t want Ghostbusters to look or sound like it came out in 2021 and - thankfully - this 4K / BD package doesn’t. GHostbusters was a true comedy, action, horror mashup classic. In a simpler time (as far as media diffusion goes, anyway) everyone experienced it and thanks to this UHD upgrade, everyone can experience it again. When younger folks enjoy GHostbusters AFterlife and want to experience what was referenced in that film, show them this version. It’s cleaned up enough visually and audio wise to appeal to them and once it works its magic, there’s no looking back. Special features on the Blu Ray have appeared in other versions and - at this point - there’s very little unknown about how the movie came about, the issues it experienced in production and other interesting stories that came out of its creation. Seeing a bit more on the extensive rewrites after Belushi was replaced by Murray due to the former’s untimely death would always be nice to compare the changes but the film on its own withstands the test of time. If you want a great movie with an impressive restoration than you don’t need to call anyone else…ghostbusters is what you want!

    I picked this as a stocking stuffer for my (adult) son. He can be a little gnarly if I pick up something he has "outgrown". He still loves the Ghostbusters. And his new Steelbook. We were on the phone when he opened it and I heard genuine surprise and approval when he unwrapped it.

    In your neighborhood...Who are you gonna call??? One of the best movies to come out of the 80's. Bill Murray is on point as he cracks wise left and right. If there is some odd reason you have never seen this film. Stop now, buy this asap and watch it. You will not regret it.

    If you haven't seen Ghostbusters or if you have, you'll definitely WANT to get this in 4k. Lots of great features and the story still holds today. The practical effects are amazing and pop in the 4k release.

    Ghostbusters: The Original 1984 Movie Review

    The original 1984 Ghostbusters film is a great Horror-Comedy movie. They creatives behind it make the film look really horrifying, but they make the characters in the story really funny, especially Bill Murray's Peter Venkman and Rick Moranis' Louis Tully! They're both really, but in their own unique ways. I found this at my local Best Buy store exactly on the Friday before Ghostbusters: Afterlife came out, and it was the only copy at my store. It was worth the pick up. Now all I need to do, is to look for Ghostbusters 2 (1989) and wait for Ghostbusters 3: Afterlife on 4K to complete the trilogy. Yes, I said trilogy. Because 2016 Ghostbusters was a really crappy reboot of a movie. As for the OG Ghostbusters, I give it a 5/5 Stars, for the matching style artwork for the case that it has with Ghostbusters 2 4K and for the movie. Also, I was really happy that this movie didn't come with a digital code, not the fan of those darn things to be honest. Besides, you don't know how much of scam those darn things could be anyways.
