Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Madilyn Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

jordynpoodle This was a movie that I first heard about from Nostalgia Critic, and even knowing that many people don't like this movie, I tried to go in as neutral as possible. Despite this, I was quite disappointed. I don't know much about Marvel outside of the MCU, so I didn't go into this as an avid fan. I just wanted to see a skeleton on a flaming motorcycle beat up guys. That was maybe 2/10 of the movie. The rest is Nic Cage talking and being weird in front of the girl he likes. Honestly, if they had any other actor play Johnny Blaze, I'd probably give this a six or seven.

2karl- Ghost Rider came out (2007) I loved this film in the cinema its one of marvel lesser known film in 1h 54min | Action, Fantasy, Thriller Directed Mark Steven Johnson who done the unloved daredevil this a fine job of mixing cgi with live action When the motorcyclist Johnny Blaze finds that his father Barton Blaze has a terminal cancer, he accepts a pact with the Mephistopheles, giving his soul for the health of his beloved father. But the devil deceives him, and Barton dies in a motorcycle accident during an exhibition. Johnny leaves the carnival, his town, his friends and his girlfriend Roxanne. Years later Johnny Blaze becomes a famous motorcyclist, who risks his life in his shows, and he meets Roxanne again, now a TV reporter. However, Mephistopheles proposes Johnny to release his contract if he become the "Ghost Rider" and defeat his evil son Blackheart, who wants to possess one thousand evil souls and transform hell on earth. Hell Is About To Be Unleashed with an enormous budget$110,000,000 (estimated) it had an Opening Weekend:$52,022,908 and it grossed 130millin American and world wide gross$315,802,596 Nicolas Cage is hilarious. He has a face that is like a silent movie actors and I kept thinking about movies like Nosferatu or Phantom of the Opera. He's been waiting for years to play this role and you can really feel how much fun he's having just going crazy, especially in the first scene when Johnny Blaze turns into the Ghost Rider. The movie just borders on the edge of campy but always manages to pull itself back before going to far. And Sam Elliott. It's got Sam Elliot. What more could you ask for? His curse has become his power with astonishing special with the character is an uncompromising bad ass johnny blaze suits nick cage down to a tie over the top character he was only a teenage stunt biker when he sold his soul to the devil peter Fonda character years later johnny is a world renowned daredevil by day a and a ghost-rider at night of marvel back catolougue legend as t devil sidekick bounty hunter he is looking after evil souls on earth and throwing to hell but in a cruel twist of fate johnny comes back to his first love eve Mendez who is a journalist johnny blaze thinks he might still have some chance if he can beat the devil and win his soul back to do so he will have to defeat black heart the devils son played by wes Bentley traces of around with detectives gathering info as they wreck the city and ghost-rider making a mess of the roads with his flames from his bike and his motley crew come for ghost-rider and leave hell bent on getting what he wants his wayward son whose plotting to take over his fathers realm and collide hell with earth unless ghost-rider can think of a plan in time.and with the caretaker taking care of his soul he is also on one last ride to hell with his double act with the ghost-rider in the old west

Sam smith (sam_smithreview) Based on the Marvel comic character, Nicholas Cage plays Johnny Blaze, a motorcycle stunt driver who escapes death countless times because he sold his soul to the Devil (Peter Fonda) years earlier in exchange that his father would beat cancer. The Devil doesn't totally keep his end of the bargain so Johnny escapes to fame but soon the Devil shows up wanting him to become the Ghost Rider and destroy his son who is trying to take over his power. I'll admit right up front that I'm not a comic fan and I've certainly never read anything this film is based on so I can't compare it to anything. I went into the movie hoping to at least get a popcorn entertainment and for the most part I think the film delivers, although it's certainly far from perfect and it's not even a good film. I viewed the Extended Cut, which I think was a mistake because there are certain scenes that just dragged on for no reason and sure enough, after watching the movie I looked up the differences in the two versions and these scenes were what was extended. There's way too much build-up and talk leading up to what the film is really about and I'd say that the ending goes on way too long as well. Directed by Mark Steven Johnson, and based on his own screenplay, the film makes no sense. The main idea revolves around the eternal theme of how a man can sell his own soul to the devil because the asking person wants to gain something he doesn't have, or in this case because Johnny Blaze, who knows about his father's cancer, wants to save the old man. Unfortunately, for the production team, better made movies have been made using this idea.

boris_kolarov I haven't read any Ghost Rider comics. A friend of mine has requested me from a long time to watch Ghost Rider - he says he loves this film, it's one of his favourites. I decided to check it out and unfortunately I didn't enjoyed it that much. Not an awful film, not a great film - in the middle. First of I'm going to list what I like about the film.1)I know that it is based of a comic book, but the idea of a flaming skeleton riding a motorcycle, which by the way is flaming too.2)The special effects look great!3)Ghost Rider's look gets positive points!4)A BIT OF A SPOILER! Caretaker looks great as a ghost rider, but even better looks like skeleton flaming horse!5)Mephistopheles had the strongest acting in the film.6)Blackheart's henchmen look also great!7)One of the best scenes in the film was when Blackheart killed the people in the bar in the dessert. There was great atmosphere.8)The action sequences were awesome.9)Cool bits of the soundtrack.10)Nostalgia Critic's review of the film made me laugh, so this is also a plus.Now let's see what I didn't liked about the film.1)The acting wasn't that good.2)The romance between Johnny and Roxanne was a weak element. At a moment you feel that Johnny is kinda of an a-hole to her and she doesn't realizes it.3)The writing wasn't all that good.4)I thought Blackheart's henchmen were defeated too fast and if felt rushed.5)Blackheart was a bit weak villain.6)Watching CinemaSins's video about the film made me don't like it more.Overall Ghost Rider falls as a mediocre film. The film has it's funny bits, but it has it's bad bits. Still it wasn't Marvel's worst film. I can have fun watching the film. From BAD 1 to EXCELLENT 6 I give Ghost Rider GOOD 3.50, which is not quite MEDIOCRE 3, not GOOD 4. I saw the sequel - Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance and I liked it more - I would give it GOOD 3.75. I hope Marvel make a reboot of Ghost Rider with Disney in the future, maybe in the 20s of XXI century. Great to see lots of people enjoying the film more than me.
