Customer Reviews

A pretty decent movie novelization by Ed Naha.

This novelization of the hit movie "Ghostbusters II" is done fairly well. For the main part he recreates the film mostly accurately (though I believe he misspells Winston's last name). He also adds some extra info, such as a nicely done scene at the very end that expands on one of the shots in the end credits.It is, however, a bit short and simplistic. Mr. Naha should have consulted the movie novelizations by George Gipe (the best I have ever read), but as it stands, this is certainly a passable job.

GREAT BOOK!

This book was great! It was based more on the original movie script that on the movie itself! Some parts were changed, but you'll still have many good laughs! If you loved the GB, try and pick up a copy!

Great for movie lovers who can just read about a movie.

Ok, I guess, I am going to tell you just that the ending is different from the movie, everything else pretty much locks into place. A wonderful item if you have been obsessed with the Ghostbusters since they came out. (I was a mere 2 or three [I can't exactly remember] but I loved them still.) I picked up the book to read after a test, and haven't put it down since. Now, I have only done that with four books, the Outsiders, BlAdE, and Buffy the Vampire slayer (and of course, Ghostbusters II.) Like I said, I am one of those people that, if it doesn't have a movie to it, I just don't enjoy it as well. Or maybe I just need to know what the characters look like. (As in the case of Buffy.) Though, opposing that standpoint, I never actually saw the Outsiders movie. Anyway, add an ending just like in the movie, and you would have a great book, I just didn't like the ending. It was too quick, it just built up, and up, and up, and up, AND UP, and then it just kinda' dropped, I didn't like it.
