New thing today, watched R.I.P.D. (2013). Eh? At first I was excited to see Ryan Reynolds in tight police gear wielding a gun and capturing my heart like he did in Blade: Trinity.
*Ahhhhhh....
But alas, the magic did not happen again. There were no shirt-off scenes, and overall it reminded me of Men in Black. It was very PG and there were bad ghost monsters to battle.
Jeff Bridges was weird and not really funny, and I couldn't understand half of what he was saying. We put subtitles on after the first few minutes. Jeff played the mentor lone ranger type cop, who was also the comic relief, which was a weird combo. Ryan Reynolds played the straight serious guy? Just a weird combo of characters. Also the action and story didn't quite flow.
I love that this had Kevin Bacon in it though :) Love Kevin Bacon and (spoiler) he makes an excellent villain. Wasn't that great in this movie, but I like him anyway.
I wasn't really in love with this, and lost interest halfway through the movie. Wouldn't watch it again and would probably change the channel if I saw it on TV. Probably 1 or 2 stars out of 5. Although, this movie made me want to watch Men in Black, and I enjoyed those movies much more.
