R.I.P.D film review

Well see this film last night, not at all what i expected after watching the trailer i think i was expecting something with a little stronger story line, i felt as if much of the content was stolen from other films that i have seen, like M.I.B, Men in Black and Ghost-busters.

The basic story is of a cop that gets killed by his partner over some stolen gold, that turns out to be an ancient artifact that will allow the dead to fall to earth. On being killed Rick (Ryan Reynold) proceeds to heaven to be judged, on the way he gets pulled into the waiting room and recruited into the Rest In Peace Department, the police of the dead, the deados are on earth and need to be brought back to be judged.

You get the drift of the story line, on watching the film i did get a strong essence of M.I.B within the heavenly police department, with strange monster/creatures roaming around in handcuffs, cops with out of this world guns. On the earth side of the story i got a feeling of ghost-busters with the ancient artifact opening a portal to allow the dead to fall to earth and kill all the living population.

All in all a film for the family to watch i would not say it would be a film i could watch again, i would not recommend that a trip to the cinema was in order to watch, i would wait for the film to come to DVD.
