Tonight's Family Movie Night film was Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021) a nostalgic continuation of the Ghostbusters timeline that included Ghostbusters (1984) and Ghostbusters II (1989) -- and thankfully discards the reboot film Ghostbusters (2016).

As a fan of the 1980s films, there was enough nostalgia and references to the original movies to keep me happy. The movie is also really funny in its own way and that made it so entertaining. Mckenna Grace carries the movie perfectly with her super dry humor. The focus on the characters and their relationships was the emotional backbone of the film. The effects in the movie were great in that they both looked old, yet they felt modern. And the cinematography of the film by Eric Steelberg is stunningly gorgeous.
