Ghostmates

After the failure of Smosh: The Movie last year next year we got this movie starring Ian & Anthony noy playing as themselves but instead with fictional character names this time except that this movie manages to be way more inferior also in fact worse than the 'Smosh: The Movie' it actually had some unique ideas even if it didn't work with the comedy of it falls completely flat on its face this movie with title of 'Ghostmates' itself also as a comedy movie just feels soulless rather being funny It's really hard to write this review weather I would recommend this to a smosh fan or a regular average movie viewer without trying to sound harsh but their is nothing in this movie worth seeing I don't recommend anybody to anybody watching it.

Here's a thing when I first watched this movie I feel completely nothing, Cold, Empty, Soulless and not even laughing once in the entire movie after I got the end of the movie unlike with 'Smosh: The Movie' I try to pretend I liked it and it was good when I was a kid but in reality it was not a good movie, I'm not saying the movie has some bad acting it does have some decent acting from Ian & Anthony the main characters of the movie but I can't remember the names of fictional characters but most of the time the acting is amature from the cast of the movie not that I blame they had nothing to work with it beside that one credit their is nothing positive I could about this movie I could say it's a waste of time I rather watch 'Smosh: The Movie' or 'Fred: The Movie' I'm being completely honest to myself their is nothing redeeming about this movie when I comedy film fails at being funny or entertaining than it's not worth watching it

I know that making movies is hard but with this film's budget which I had no idea what the budget after lots of research for this movie but I can't find the actual budget so I'm just gonna guess it's around maybe 2 or 1 million dollars but they could of done something way more creative with it but I guess the director couldn't come up with any creative in his mind. So overall I do not recommend this movie to any one if you are getting in to it don't expect any redeeming qualities but I do warn you it's mostly boring, I'm giving this one 1 out of 10 on IMDb and on Letterboxd giving it a 0.5 out of 5 stars.

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.

The Smosh dudes pull another rabbit out of their funny hats! Ghostmates is the second Smosh feature film and they are consistently funny again!

The story is simple - Ed dies a goofy death and Charlie must help Ed achieve three goals before he can go to heaven. And the adventure begins! They meet two girls that are just superb carefree characters and loves follows. There is even a Bollywood takeoff in the story which is wonderfully done.

Watch it! It's worth every minute.

Writing more about the story will only ruin it for those who haven't seen it.

This movie definitely fits into the new YouTube Red setting. Unlike their last movie which I will admit wasn't the best, this allows them to try and expand their options while staying with their YouTube fan base. Ian and Anthony definitely have the ability to become better actors and by doing this, I believe we will see a gigantic change within the next few movies (assuming they make more).

All in all, it was a good movie. Some of the parts dragged on a lot longer than they should have, and I did enjoy the small cameo of the Smosh crew. The story was pretty boring, but the comedy aspect was quite good.

I'll put this right out there, I'm no fan of SMOSH. I find their humor to be juvenile and very "youtube" oriented if such a concept exists. I get it that they're hip with the kids but that's probably only because they haven't built up much life experience yet and still think farts are funny. You know, they were funny when you were 7 and your humor hasn't evolved since then.

"Smosh: The Movie" was bad but I can still say that there was some effort put into it. I would assume it was their version of a 90 minute youtube video. But it's a masterpiece compared to this. This movie isn't just bad. It's lazy and if anything that's a lot worse than just being bad.

There's no effort put into this to craft a joke or make a good scene. It's just stuff happening for no reason. Some guy dies and starts acting like an asshole and trolling the only guy that can see him to force him to help the dead guy get to heaven. Yeah, nowhere in the history of cinema has that plot ever been used.

From what I've seen even diehard fans of Smosh hate this movie. And that's saying something.

This is by far one of the worst things I've ever seen and if this is what Youtube Red is all about then it's a failed experiment.
