While Ghostbusters: Afterlife was a fine followup to the franchise’s earlier films, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’s new director promises a big improvement in one vital sector. 2021’s Ghostbusters: Afterlife was a strong reboot for a franchise that struggled with follow-ups for decades. 1989’s Ghostbusters II was mostly written off as a belated cash-in despite some strong scenes, while 2016’s divisive reboot Ghostbusters: Answer the Call failed to reinvent the franchise for a new generation. Although Ghostbusters: Afterlife relied a little too heavily on nostalgia, the reboot introduced likable new characters and offered a sweet reunion for the original heroes.
