R.I.P.D. (2013)
After growing a conscience about the gold they took, cop Nick gets shot by his partner and gets a new job in the afterlife: tracking "deados" masquerading as live people. His new partner died in the Old West, so there's an opportunity for funny friction. And, hehehe, Nick now looks like an elderly Chinese man while his partner appears as a sexy blonde going to the club.
Though the CGI sucks, it's the lack of soul that really ruins this. Although I generally advocate for shorter rather than longer run times, I think this could've benefited from a couple more pre-death scenes of Nick and his wife -- maybe add a dog who can sense who the elderly Asian actually is? This just needed something to make me care at all.
