Brady classified it today as a chick movie.

Hes comparison was MIB x Ghostbusters x Ghost.

Reminds me of Reaper which is an awesome show. Will be doing dvd or ollar theatre, not anticipating enough for an immediate viewing.

Considering the somewhat dour origin story (main character is a cop who dies in the line of duty), the trailers make it seem like a more "fun" movie.

An action/adventure comic-book themed movie that's fun? I'll check it out.

It's supposed to be an abomination, emphasis on the bomb.

R.I.P.D.

Release Date: July 18, 2013 (3D/2D theaters, p.m. screenings)
Studio: Universal Pictures
Director: Robert Schwentke
Screenwriter: Phil Hay, Matt Manfredi
Genre: Supernatural Action Adventure
MPAA Rating: PG-13 (for violence, sci-fi/fantasy action, some sensuality, and language including sex references)

Starring: Jeff Bridges, Ryan Reynolds, Kevin Bacon, Mary-Louise Parker, Stephanie Szostak, Robert Knepper, James Hong, Marisa Miller, Mike O’Malley, Devin Ratray

Plot Summary: Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds headline the 3D supernatural action-adventure "R.I.P.D." as two cops dispatched by the otherworldly Rest In Peace Department to protect and serve the living from an increasingly destructive array of souls who refuse to move peacefully to the other side.

Veteran sheriff Roy Pulsifer (Bridges) has spent his career with the legendary police force known as R.I.P.D. tracking monstrous spirits who are cleverly disguised as ordinary people. His mission? To arrest and bring to justice a special brand of criminals trying to escape final judgment by hiding among the unsuspecting on Earth.

Once the wise-cracking Roy is assigned former rising-star detective Nick Walker (Reynolds) as his junior officer, the new partners have to turn grudging respect into top-notch teamwork. When they uncover a plot that could end life as we know it, two of R.I.P.D.'s finest must miraculously restore the cosmic balance...or watch the tunnel to the afterlife begin sending angry souls the very wrong way.

Just got back from taking the six year old.

It was fun, but it was just Men in Black part 4.

I just watched it. Ha, a mix of the three movies above is a perfect way to put it.

My son and I had a few hours to kill this afternoon. It is definitely no Ghostbusters, but it kept us entertained and out of the heat for a while.
