Reviews

Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Mr-Fusion "Ghostheads" came at just the right time to show that not all "Ghostbusters" fans are mean Internet ragebeasts. Personally, I'd walked into this movie expecting little more than a few interviews from the original creative minds (Aykroyd, Reitman, etc.) and some images of cosplayers. And there is that, but this movie isn't set out to poke fun at those who strap on proton packs in public. This is all about how a supernatural comedy from 30 years ago can have a positive impact on people's lives - and more than that, how they can use it to promote goodness in their community. I recognized a few faces from Ghostbusters messageboards and YouTube channels, and their stories are . . . is life-affirming too strong a word? Either way, prepare to be moved. This one's got surprising depth.8/10
muffystcinnamon First off, if "Sizzlegeek" is looking for his "true" Ghostheads movie, he could just get off his computer and go make his own movie about these Ghostheads. Nothing is stopping him/her, so stop wasting time by writing biased reviews and go make the movie if it's that easy. Jeeze.I want to say that I cannot express enough how much I enjoyed this film! I discovered it by hearing about in on the "Opie and Jimmy" show and I was beyond impressed. It was executed brilliantly and there was everything...like an emotional roller coaster. There were sad parts, happy parts and I laughed a lot and enjoyed it immensely. I now have an appreciation of this group of people and will look for them at a comic con or event and go up and shake their hand. I never realized just how this movie impacted people. I have seen the original movies once or twice, but I never really gave them a second thought. I will now re-watch them with a new appreciation.
DoctorVenkman This provides some nice insight into the great things that the Ghostbusters community does for each other and for others. Although it focused a little too much on one individual and it would've been nicer to see more groups and members given the spotlight a bit more. I wish the moments where people talk about wives not liking it or "needing to keep it separate" from your wife would have ended up on the cutting room floor. I feel like one of the intentions of this documentary was to show that the "overdoing-it nerd" stereotype is not true, and I feel like these conversations went against that idea. Ghostheads, as a community, do great things and help others and, at least in cases I'm familiar with, our wives fully support what we do. Overall, it definitely captures the spirit of who we are and what we do and is an entertaining look at the world of Ghostheads.
brettedgerton The team behind Ghostheads definitely put a lot of their own personal time and effort into this. They really wanted to show exactly what being involved in a fandom can be all about. Knowing one of the producers from years past and his enthusiasm and passion for Ghostbusters has really shown in this documentary. Let it be known that he does not make this a self serving documentary at all, even for the amount of dedication he has to this franchise, these individuals, and this fandom. If you sit back and take this documentary for what it really is, it can show you just how anyone, from any background can get involved and create a community for themselves to foster good ideas, to help people, and let anyone be who they want to be. We are all different, and that's OK. It is communities like these that can provide us support in times we might need it the most.
