Keep it brief review:
"Frozen Empire" is the second in the latest ghostbuster reboot/continuation and proves that this franchise still has some ghostly legs to float on. Continuing on from "Afterlife" We now find the new (and old) Ghostbusters now living in NYC. Events unfold leading to an ancient evil force becoming unleashed and hellbent on causing a new ice age. Unfortunately some characters have limited screen time, and Bill Murray gives a very phoned in performance that is pointless and unnecessary. Frozen Empire is a decent follow up to "Afterlife" but doesn't hit as deep or as fun as its previous outing. Fans may want a little more by the end but overall should be satisfied with
Positives: + Some decently funny moments & action + Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson are a blast to watch again + Return to the firehouse
Negatives:
3 out of 5.

Negatives:
- Uninteresting villain
- Lack of screen time for some characters including ghosts.
- Bill Murray is completely forgettable and clearly is phoning in his performance.
- Lacks that hard hitting nostalgic and emotional factor that "Afterlife" had.
