Here's what the critics are saying:
R.I.P.D.Β arrives in a state of advanced rigor mortis. Except for an enjoyably lip-smacking, scenery-and-CGI-chewing, Old West-guy performance byΒ Jeff Bridges, who by now must have played more Western characters than any other actor of his generation, this is a second-rate special effects-dominated 3D entry that will join several prominent would-be blockbusters that need not be mentioned on the summer junk heap. βΒ Todd McCarthy, The Hollywood Reporter
Thank heavens . . . for Jeff Bridges, whose hilariously free-associative performance as a 19th-century frontier marshal-turned-21st-century undead lawman is like an adrenaline shot to the heart of βR.I.P.D.β βΒ Scott Foundas, Variety
While Bridges chews the scenery with his garrulous Southern-accented chatter, Reynolds is too restrained. There's little sign of the easy charm, intelligence and affability both actors are known for. βΒ Claudia Puig, USA Today
