Ghost Rider


The story is based on the Marvel character Johnny Blaze, a motorcycle stuntman who becomes the host of a "spirit of vengeance" in exchange for the safety of his true love. At night he's transformed into a fiery demon with superpowers who chases bad guys.

Nicholas Cage strikes again...Or I should say strikes out again. Each year there are several bad movies. Bad movies don't always translate into stupid movies. Ghost Rider is a stupid movie. I'm unfamiliar with the comic book that the film is based on so I might not be able to appreciate the complexities of a stuntman who transforms into a flaming skeleton at night to catch bad guys. Jamie says "0".

I was a fan of the comic series, and this movie destroyed it. Most of the villains didn't come from the comic series. And the devil's son Black heart didn't look anyhting like the character from the series. The character from the comics was a giant blue deamon creature, not a partialy blue man. The movie was a conplete stike out. This film could have been done so much better.
