Was Ghostbusters ever actually good though

Movie Mindset was interviewing the director of Repo Man about how the Ghostbusters were struggling academics who turned into reactionaries after the success of their small business. And that the antagonist in the movie was the EPA?? I have to go back and rewatch it now.

This is accurate. And the guy sent bybthe state to shut it down was an idiot who basically wanted them to release hundreds of ghosts into new york immediately because it was against regs.

The EPA or the mayor or whoever won't let them operate a nuclear reactor in their old ass firehouse, but the ultimate villain is definitely the demons or ghosts or whatever. They really should have been folded into an animal control department
