R.I.P.D. - Review

  
After watching R.I.P.D. and reading several bad reviews, Idecided to write my own.  Now, let's get this out of the way first: I didn't hate this movie like so many others seem to have.  In fact, I actually enjoyed watching it, for the most part. Yes, it had its problems, but it also had plenty of action, which isn't new for director Robert Schwentke (Red, Flightplan), a fair amount of comedy, a great cast, and beautiful Boston cinematography.
