Really was surprised by how much potential this story had. Could have nailed so much nostalgia and created an extremely impressive script had it not been for a sidetracked plot.
The film focused a lot on the B-plot of female Harry Potter (Phoebe) and her ghastly crush (Melody), instead of elaborating on the main plot or development of Nadeem (you know, a crucial character in the film).
For a Ghostbusters film, it was critical to focus on the story of the main 4 Ghostbuster's and their family relationship, but mostly expand more on the lore of the poltergeists or Nadeem and his role. It ended up being less of "Frozen Empire" and more of "Ghostbusters: Phoebe's Reinstatement".
Score and Visuals were good. I particularly enjoyed the visual design of the poltergeists, especially the primarily featured one.
Overall, the film had potential to be a 8.5 or 9/10, but ended up being bland mostly due to a secondary plot which took precedence over the story, leaving everything in the main plot to be resolved with convince and not good writing.
