Ghostmates is a 2016 American comedy movie directed by Jack Henry Robbins starring Ian Hecox, Anthony Padilla, and Francesca Galassi. The movie follows the story of a socially awkward gamer named Charlie (Hecox), who moves into a new apartment and discovers that it is haunted by the ghost of a woman named Margaret (Galassi). As Charlie tries to figure out how to get rid of the ghost, he meets his new roommate, Eddie (Padilla), who turns out to be a ghost as well. Together, they embark on a hilarious adventure to help each other navigate their lives as they uncover the mystery of Margaret's death.

The movie starts with Charlie, an introverted gamer, who decides to move out of his parents' house and into a new apartment. However, soon after moving in, he discovers that the place is haunted by the ghost of a woman named Margaret. Charlie quickly realizes that Margaret is not like any other ghost he has ever encountered before. Unlike other ghosts, Margaret is friendly and not interested in scaring Charlie. She enjoys spending time with him and even becomes his wingwoman, trying to help him find love. However, Charlie does not want to live with a ghost and wants to get rid of Margaret.

In his bid to get rid of Margaret, Charlie enlists the help of a psychic, a priest, and a witch, but none of them are capable of helping him. While trying to avoid Margaret's attempts to help him, Charlie meets his new roommate, Eddie, who is also a ghost. Eddie, unlike Margaret, is still stuck in the past and is not ready to move on. He becomes a mentor to Charlie, teaching him how to be more confident and get over his social anxiety.

As Charlie starts to develop feelings for a girl named Elise, Margaret becomes his wingwoman once again, helping him to woo her. Things start to get complicated when Charlie and Eddie discover that Margaret did not die of natural causes, and they set out to uncover the truth behind her death. Their investigation leads them to a mob boss, who has a connection to Margaret's past.

Ghostmates is a funny and heartwarming movie that explores what it means to be alive and what it means to be dead. The movie's cast includes Ian Hecox and Anthony Padilla, who are best known for their YouTube channel, Smosh, and Francesca Galassi, who delivers an excellent performance as Margaret, the friendly ghost. The movie's humor is a mix of slapstick and situational comedy, which will make you laugh out loud. At times, the movie can be predictable, but its charm lies in the chemistry between the two leads, Hecox and Padilla, who have great onscreen energy.

Overall, Ghostmates is a fun movie to watch with your friends or even alone. Its comedic elements and heartfelt moments make it a great choice for anyone looking for a light-hearted movie to enjoy.
