Ghosted, starring Ana de Armas and Chris Evans premiered on Apple TV+, on April 21, 2023. Despite the pre-release hype, the movie only has a 29% rating on Rotten Tomatoes at the time of this writing.
The story revolves around Sadie (Ana) and Cole (Chris) who meet by chance and hit it off. Cole falls head over heels but she ghosts him after the first date. He travels all the way to London to surprise Sadie, but the surprise is on him when he finds out that she is a secret agent. Understandably things get complicated and the duo finds themselves on an international adventure to save the world.
The reviews of the movie have been far from kind. The lack of chemistry between the lead actors and the weak storyline are some of the things that popped up in reviews of the movie. As per The Guardian review:
"A staggeringly, maddeningly atrocious heap of increasingly boneheaded decisions that will act as depressing documentation of just how rotten things got in the current oversaturated streaming landscape."
Calum Marsh, for The New York Times, notes:
"This tedious, unfunny, screamingly unoriginal romantic adventure film is so flimsy and so insubstantial that it’s practically vaporous."
But not all movie watchers were disappointed with Ghosted. Many found it entertaining with lots of great action scenes. Some fans have even praised Ana's performance in the movie.
Although Ghosted might not have done as well as expected, Ana de Armas is still one talented actor that movie lovers should keep an eye on. Born in Havana, Cuba, she started her career in Spain and then moved to L.A. to make it as an international star. Over the years, Ana de Armas has proven through her work that there is no role that she cannot pull off.
