Brightlyme i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.

Holstra Boring, long, and too preachy.

Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Michael Ledo Nick (Ryan Reynolds) a slightly dirty cop dies early in the film. In the afterlife he is teamed up with Roy (Jeff Bridges) an old western marshal. Together they cruise Boston looking for "deados," people who are dead, but somehow missed getting caught up in the vortex because "the system wasn't designed for the heavy volume."The plot, inane as it was, had some good MIB potential. Indeed they did spend money on special effects. The main problem was that the main characters were more annoying than entertaining, especially Bridges who down right prated on my nerves. Reynolds didn't impress and neither did his mousy wife (Stephanie Szostak). Kevin Bacon did what he could with his role. The characters and dialogue had no hook. Mary-Louise Parker had some snarky lines, but wasn't on the screen long enough.Worth a rental, but not much more.Parental Guide: Near f-bomb. No sex or nudity.

assieyamin Really enjoyed it, I had no idea what was gonna happen, as a film it works, 90 mins of fun, all the cast are great, fun, sharp, will watch again, just watch and see for yourself. Enjoy!

blanche-2 Ryan Reynolds, Jeff Bridges, and Kevin Bacon star in "RIPD" from 2013.The story concerns a Boston cop, Nick (Reynolds) who, along with his partner Hayes (Bacon)discover a cache of gold while busting drug- dealers. Nick buries his, and then decides against stealing. He informs Hayes that he is going to turn in the gold as evidence from the bust, but he won't mention that Hayes committed theft as well.Well we all know what's going to happen and sure enough, as soon as it can look like a shooting while bringing down a vicious gang, Hayes lets Nick have it. Nick leaves behind his wife, Julia (Stephanie Szostak). Nick is sucked up into a vortex and finds himself in front of a Proctor (Mary Louise Parker) - he's still in uniform. She informs him that he's a member now of R.I.P.D. (Rest in Peace Department), Boston division. His assignment is to pair up with Roy (Jeff Bridges) - obviously once a cop in the old, wild west - and go hunting for undeads, evil people who actually died but haven't yet descended and are sticking around. They wear disguises so they don't look dead.Nick, of course, would also like to bring down Hayes and check on his wife. He and Roy have avatars also so that people can see them, but not as themselves. Roy is a gorgeous blonde (Marisa Miller, in real life a Victoria's Secret model) and Nick is an old Asian American (James Hong).Silly movie, predictable, but a decent rental. There were a couple of good scenes - one was Nick going into the vortex, another was the dead cops chasing of one of the undeads, who is wreaking havoc on the city. On the slapsticky side, but okay.

BA_Harrison It's easy to see what they're aiming for with R.I.P.D.: it's Men in Black with a supernatural twist. The plot sees a young deceased cop, Nick (Ryan Reynolds taking on the Will Smith role), being recruited by a special organisation (R.I.P.D. as opposed to M.I.B) dedicated to capturing dead people who are roaming the Earth illegally, having escaped judgement. Together with older, experienced mentor Roy (Jeff Bridges in the Tommy Lee Jones role), Nick investigates a case involving fragments of a gold artefact sought by his his ex-partner Hayes (Kevin Bacon), the man who killed him.Other parallels that can be drawn with Men In Black include the titular organisation's headquarters, which are extremely reminiscent of the bustling M.I.B. HQ, the use of inventive specialised weapons (although there's nothing as fun as the 'noisy cricket'), and the untrustworthy informer (again, nowhere near as good as Tony Shalhoub's Jeebs). Even the film's tag-line 'Defending our world one soul at a time' is close to M.I.B.'s 'your first, last and only line of defense'.All of these similarities result in a distinct lack of freshness, but the problems don't end there: lousy CGI effects, a complete absence of genuine laughs, and Bridges insufferable performance all go to ensure that a good time is not had by all. In short, R.I.P.D. is C.R.A.P.
