Ghostmates

Honestly, this movie was okay, maybe a little less than average. The plot is tried-and-true, but it's not executed that well. Anthony Padilla and Ian Hecox, well known for their YouTube channel Smosh, do a fair job of keeping the watcher watching the movie because of their chemistry that is brought over from their web series, but even that becomes a little bit shaky.

Anthony plays Charlie, a socially inept cartoonist who is currently jobless, and Ian plays Ed, a recently perished young man who is forever doomed to stay "earthbound" (that's a reference to an awesome show that I will not mention directly) until he makes right with all the people that he left with on bad terms. I find the similarities between these two characters and the characters that both Anthony and Ian play on Smosh, as Ian plays the guy who tries to goad Anthony into doing something that Anthony doesn't want to do.

Ian's character Ed has some quirks that can be found funny to the right person. He uses the word penultimately incorrectly which actually ends up being a good thing for everyone in the end.

Overall, this film is one of those where you can take it or leave it. It doesn't bring anything special or new to film, but you can still enjoy it for what it is.
