Ghostheads

this hard hitting doc about peoples struggles in daily life by turning to beloved franchises that makes them special just by turning up in tribute as one of their idols was heartfelt and made me very proud to help fund as for an resident of united kingdom I seen loads of hard hitting docs about peoples struggles it touches people but instead of franchises to turn for guidance we have self help focus therapy groups as for this doc it makes people from all walks of life come together in celebration and some of the stories are harrowing that this deserves an award an gem that with continue it's legacy for generations to come. 10/10 rating.

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.

If you ever asked yourself "Who are these Ghostbusters cosplayers and why do they love this movie so much?", this surprisingly fun, positive and moving documentary explores the fandom, friendships and personal stories of the cosplayers/devotees of the classic 80s movies 'Ghostbusters' and 'Ghostbusters II' and the new reboot 'Ghostbusters (2016)'. This film is not 'Trekkies' which had attempted to make fun or laugh with the audience at the fans of the Star Trek franchise. A great tribute to the fans who commit their time, money and schedules to make people feel great in their communities. Great personal, heartwarming interviews with the fans from around the world and features interviews from the celebrities and creators of the original films. A great companion piece on Netflix to watch with the original movies and to watch before the new Ghostbusters reboot.

From the trailer and info dropped about this film I thought I was going to get an interesting look at how Ghostbusters fandom started, how it has evolved over the years, what it is now, where it's going...

Instead, it was more of a few sob stories featuring 3 or 4 people who all, coincidentally, happen to like Ghostbusters. There was a little bit of history and relevance in there. But it seems like if they had to trim another 20 minutes off the run time, those interesting bits would be on the chopping block.

This film should change it's title to something like: ∙Touched by Dan Aykroyd ∙How to Cope with Cosplay ∙Khaki Flightsuit Diaries ∙Drama and Your Inner Spengler

Maybe one day will we get a true Ghostheads movie.

This could have been so much better. It focuses mostly on one depressed guy from New Jersey, a very odd engaged couple and a weird man from Arizona. It does, however, have some good cast interviews. Sadly, it doesn't offer much more than that. Really not worth watching unless you have a ton of free time and bored.

The film should have broaden itself to more Ghostbuster fans around the world, not just a few. The film also drags on and doesn't seem to ever end. I'm sure the director tried hard and worked with what he had - it just was a major let down for those who love Ghostbusters. This is a one and done watch for me.
