The concept was a slightly different, kinda fresh but messed up with a bad story. It was one more movie where men with guns fight against the evil invasion. Nick (Ryan Reynolds), a recently deceased honest cop joins the Rest in Peace Department (R.I.P.D.) and partners with an arrogant officer Roy (Jeff Bridges). The first assignment as a team begins when they track a dead one hiding in the earth which reveals the big secrets. These two men not only fights for their everlasting life after death from being erased their souls but also fights to keep the two worlds in peace.
The movie was at least fun, had a hard time to have a laugh. It was a quite acceptable action-fantasy than to be called a comedy. But there were no short for the good performances. Both Ryan Reynolds and Jeff Bridges were great, in some of the scenes Jeff Bridges had the upper hand with his brilliant expressions and lines.
It was based on the comical book by the same name. I never read it, in fact I never knew it till now. Fine adaptation but did not deliver the images similar to comical style like most of the adapted superhero movies do. The concept was interesting but it was not enough to it's success, could have been a more reliable movie.
