The film depicts persistent texting with emojis after being ignored and traveling across the world to surprise someone who hasn't responded as romantic rather than problematic behavior.

About Ghosted

Cole falls head over heels for enigmatic Sadie, but then makes the shocking discovery that she's a secret agent. Before they can decide on a second date, Cole and Sadie are swept away on an international adventure to save the world. It's just a comedy action movie meant to be absurd but with some cool effects and mindless fun.
