It appears that Ghostbusters was so successful that a sequel was in order. While Ghostbusters gets better the more you watch it, Ghostbusters II... yeah, it's no Empire Strikes Back.
As STUPID as the idea of stripping any vindication away from our heroes for this movie was, the darker tone compared to the first movie actually kinda makes up for it. Oh yeah, Ghostbusters II is actually pretty dark. You got an ancient tyrant looking to be reborn in a baby. You got people's emotions manipulating and being manipulated by pink slime found under New York City. Need I say more on how dark this is compared to the first movie?
One good thing, in my own personal opinion, is giving Louis a vital role in this movie: he helps take down the slime barrier while our heroes battle Vigo. Although if you had played the NES game distributed by HAL, the company responsible for the Kirby series and the SNES EarthBound game, you may already know.
Even though it's not as good as the first, it's still surprising on how much potential it actually has. And I'm hoping that Ghostbusters III, whenever it comes out, would do better than the second movie.
My rating: 7/10
P.S., Ray is my favorite Ghostbuster.
