I admit, the ending caught me by surprise and wasn't what I expected. A remarkable and impactful short film, can be found on DUST Youtube channel. Worth the 13m watch.

A fun summer film
11 December 2016
Warning: Spoilers
The reviews are skewed on this film because of petulant children.
I was unable to see this in the theater, but finally had a chance to watch it. The film stands on it's own, and Holtzman is a stand out character which I loved.
This is nothing more than the base pretense of the original film that involves ghosts and new york, other than that it's an entirely new story with new characters. It's not some intensely thought out story and plot, it's a dumb summer movie and it did a decent job of being that.
There were some fine nods to the previous movie with some great cameos, but all in all this is not a 1 star film, and it's not a ten star film. It's a fun summer blockbuster film with some great jokes that a bunch of angry basement dwellers got mad at and set out to ruin.
I hated the new theme song, they should have either stuck with a slightly modified original, or done something new. mashing it up as a fall out boy song ruined it. Fortunately, it barely plays in the film. I wish they'd written Helmsworth's character better as it wasn't funny, it was just annoying/sidetracking. They could have done better instead of phoning it in and not answering it (see what I did there).
