I went to see this today in a mostly empty theater.
There were several laugh out loud moments for me with Paul Rudd and of course Murray and Ackroyd too. I really ejjoyed the prior film AFTER LIFE and it was a pleasant surprise. This one however just didn’t hit on all cylinders and was a bit uneven. Good effects but I kept thinking I wanted more of Peter Venkman and Ray Stantz.
I did not care for the subplot of the ghost Phoebe Spengler befriends nor did I like the little Stayputf marshamallow men running around. No explanation - they were just there as though they have always been there. Almost as though they were trying to sell toy versions of themselves. Cute yes., But I don’t think they serviced the plot at all. IMO.
It was just OK for me. Grade C+. AFTERLIFE gets a B+.
