Ghosted

Captain Needy finally meets his dream girl, sleeps with her, but then he gets ghosted.

It's all fine and dandy up until this point. The chemistry between the two leads, Chris Evans and Ana De Armas, who always steals every scene she is in, is fantastic and minor characters like Needy's brutally honest sister, add spark to what could have been a great mystery thriller.

Needy then becomes Captain Stalker when he decides to follow Dream Girl's trail all the way to London after having left dozen of unanswered messages, like only a loser/very romantic guy (take your pick) would do.

Quickly, like the screenwriter just gave up and handed the whole thing to a stuntmovie coordinator, the whole affair then turns into an action spectacle where everyone wants the content in a suitcase. How original.

There's a great action setpiece involving a bus, but whenever I see movies where women throw around men who are three times their own weight and size and in life threatening situations are either cracking jokes or discussing with their fellow in arms, I just zone out and wonder if I am watching one of those gamevideo walkthroughs set on God mode.

This could have, and should have, been so much better.

Let's be honest... I'm a late middle-age guy, and Ana is stunning to watch. She could be making pancakes and I'd spend $25 to watch it. She is warm and captivating and appears honest in her performance. Captain America is on point and fits the Bill as the farmer better than you would think. He's a much better actor than most of us think he is . Just go all the way back to sunshine directed by Danny Boyle (Trainspotting , Slumdog millionaire, etc, ) where he did very well over 15 years ago. Check it out if your fan of thriller horror from a phenomenal English Director.

This flick is good fluff, mostly family friendly, and a decent way to spend part of an evening. Its not grounded in anything remotely realistic ... but the leads are charming.

This movie is fun and enjoyable. Classic spy story of bad guy and even worse bad guy want a bad device and will kill all those that get in the way, with a twist on the traditional roles of our main characters. Ghosted gives us everything, love, action, and comedy with a smattering of cameos that are sure to put a smile on your face. Now yes, there are obviously more than a few unbelievable sequences that many action movies have, but overall it works. The chemistry between our main characters is obvious and I love their back and forth with one another. Both Chris and Ana are perfect in their roles and honestly I wouldn't be mad if there was a sequel.

Ghosted, starring Ana de Armas and Chris Evans is pretty much what you think it is. Nothing more, nothing less. It's basic, fun, silly and over the top

I was pleasantly surprised that it started pretty quick and kept up a good pace throughout the movie. The two leads have great chemistry and scenes don't feel too forced for the most part which is good.

This kind of story is so recycled it could probably save climate change by now. Nonetheless, it kinda works no matter how absurd and cliche it is.

I feel like everyone should know what they're getting into with this movie so just take it for what it is and you'll find it entertaining enough.

Overall, 6/10 - It's cliche and doesn't try to be anything else. Action is decent enough with over the top scenes sprinkled throughout. And Ana and Chris bounce off each other well enough for people to have a bit of mindless fun with this movie.

I thought it was cute. I don't know what other viewers are looking for but for an action packed rom com with Chris Evans fighting bad guys acting like he can't fight bad guys I mean it's cute. There's surprise cameos. There's cuteness.

There's some chemistry. Lots and lots of action. Not sure why I have to have 609 characters in my reviews. I've seen shorter reviews. I mean there's not alot to say. It's a cute rom com action packed movie with a lot of bad guys and alot of action. Was the acting great? It's a rom com! It was fine. Was it an excellent plot? It is a rom com. I mean just enjoy it for what it is. A rom com.
