They are real liberal with the fresh rating for this movie.

Despite 74% Fresh...the average rating is 5.5 out of 10.

Looking only at top critics, it had a Tomatometer score of 54 percent “fresh” based on 35 reviews.

And I think there is some social concern to at least give it a fresh...even if you really didn't like it.

No doubt that a lot of reviews reference the "blatant sexism" of the YouTube trailer criticism. That tells me that some of these reviewers had their mind made up before they even saw the film as much as the haters did.


Some examples:

Somehow, this Ghostbusters remake is going to push us all to reckon with what a more equal world might look like, whether we like it or not.

A middle finger to the screaming brobabiez. If girls can't be Ghostbusters, then here, guys can't do anything.



It's almost as if they are making the movie out to be better than it really is just to say "f*ck you".
