Grade: C-

If you didn’t already guess from the previews R.I.P.D. is essentially Men In Black with dead people. Except MIB is a classic, funny movie. R.I.P.D. is, at best, mildly amusing. The audience laughed a handful of times but not very hard. And if I recall correctly the only funny bits are Jeff Bridges’ lines, which shouldn’t come as a surprise.

If you’re a big Jeff Bridges fan then you’ll probably enjoy the movie. Jeff gets to go over the top with his enigmatic character. The rest of the movie is about as predictable as a McDonald’s menu.

That being said the movie isn’t badly done. The pacing, direction, acting are all adequate, but nothing stands out. My biggest grip is that it’s a very short movie. Without the credits the movie is less than an hour and a half long. Pardon me but I expect to be entertained for a bit longer than that.

Don’t miss your favorite movie moments because you have to pee or need a snack. Use the RunPee app (Androidor iPhone) when you go to the movies. We have Peetimes for all wide release films every week, including Civil War, Monkey Man, Godzilla x Kong: The new Empire and coming soon The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, and Fall Guy and many others. We have literally thousands of Peetimes—from classic movies through today’s blockbusters. You can also keep up with movie news and reviews on our blog, or by following us on Twitter @RunPee. If there’s a new film out there, we’ve got your bladder covered.

Creator and developer of the RunPee app. When something doesn’t work right in the app it’s pretty much his fault. 🙂

Aspiring author. Would like to finish his “Zombie Revelations” trilogy if he could break away for working on RunPee and the cottage he’s building for RunPee Mom.
