The first time I see the trailer this movie was in a movie theater, don't really get a clue what RIPD means even though there's a small caption under the text "Rest In Peace Department".
The movie tells a story about a Department that God made called RIPD which main duties is to caught 'deado' which means dead people that runs from their dead and back to real life and create chaos in the real life, or in short a zombie criminal :p.
Well, Ryan Reynolds act as Nick a police detective who has a wife Debby that he loves so much. In one of his duties, he and his partner (Hayes by Kevin Bacon) accidentally found pieces of gold, and they share the gold together. Pushed by his conscience he tell Hayes that he want to back down and he won't tell anybody about the gold.
Jeff Bridges in the other hand, act as Roy, a senior detective of RIPD. He has become one of the RIPD team since the cowboy period. Work as a solo detective and never wish to had a partner since his last partner betrayed him and kill him. Well, this become one thing in common between Roy and Nick.
One of the uniqueness of a RIPD team is, you won't be seen as who you are, as an example Roy is seen as a tall blonde sexy girl by the living people. Nick is less fortunate than Roy, he is seen as an old chinese man with his khaki jacket.
Turns out the gold found by Nick was one of an ancient pieces of artefact that could open the gate between the deado and the real life, by opening this gate all of the deado will fall down to the earth. To stop this from happening is their main mission.
This movie is not full of surprises as I thought, much similarity with Man In Black the differences is only MIB played against aliens but overall its almost the same. Its just an OK movie, nothing really meaningful to see from the first to the end.
I give this movie 3/5 stars!
