Ghost Riders

Pros: A decent interpretation of the character
Cons: I'm still not convinced of Cage's part in the whole thing

I never pictured Nicholas Cage as a superhero of any sort and after watching Marvel Comics’ Ghost Rider, a 2007 film by Columbia Pictures, I’m justified in my conviction. Keep in mind that this is the same person who, at one point, was ...

Pros: Special effects, Eva Mendes' clothing
Cons: The writing, the directing

This movie should have been a blockbuster. It has a great cast. Ditto for the special effects. It will probably be the "top grossing" movie of the weekend against some excellent competition ("Breach", "Music and Lyrics" and "Bridge to Terabithia"). ...

Pros: Nicolas Cage is awesome
Cons: Too much CGI

Ghost Rider is the latest comic book to be adapted into a movie, and this time it stars Nicolas Cage in the title role. As far as comic book movies go, I found this one to be very entertaining and much better than average. The story is interesting ...

Pros: As a former Marvel Comic book collector and fan I really enjoyed this film.
Cons: Slow pacing and all the familiar trappings of comic book to big productions flicks.

Once again another big star follows the pursuit of happiness as actor Nicolas Cage burst into his role as the Marvel Comic hero, Johnny Blaze a.k.a. Ghost Rider. The young Johnny Blaze works the carnival with his father Barton Blaze (Brett ...

Pros: digital effects, some decent sequences
Cons: stupid through and through

Fellow consumers, if you've seen the trailer for Ghost Rider, you have all the information you need. There it is in technicolor - Nicolas Cage riding a chrome-plated chopper, with his head on fire, his neck apple reduced to a bare skull. That's pretty ...

Pros: Nic Cage as well as the Ghost Rider's laugh.
Cons: The scripts, the direction, Eva Mendes, the characters that belong in another film, etc.

I do not know a hell of a lot about the Ghost Rider comics nor about the Ghost Rider himself, Johnny Blaze, so I'm not even going to pretend to be an expert on if this movie captures any of that source material. I can say however that the people I know ...

Pros: None
Cons: Everything... Awful film

Alright let's start with some positive things with ghost rider... well... the begining credits where interesting... and um.... some of the stunts where pretty cool when you thought about them... not that they looked real or anything because the CGI in ...

Pros: Special effects
Cons: Highly derivative; impossible to suspend disbelief

As some people will recall (with a little help from the title of this review), the idea of a heroic character forced to work for the devil who later turns on his nominal employer was the subject of a film (and a comic book) very similar to this one in ...

Pros: Cages Performance. CGI effects.
Cons: Poor Script.

Hello Film Fans. YouGuyFriday here: ready to toss my hat back in the ring after a long absence. So without further adieu, here is my review on the celluloid tale, Ghost Rider. Prologue This film was supported by the Hollywood hype engine. All of ...

Pros: A few neat action sequences...
Cons: ...Basically everything else...

I've never been a huge fan of Marvel films, or any superhero flicks for that matter. The plot always follows a simple formula that even the worst of mathematicians could compute. Something wrong always occurs to these men, they become superheros someway ...

Pros: "Feel like my skull's on fire but I'm good" -- hee
Cons: Maybe the worst Marvel comic movie ever made

What kind of person goes into a movie about a flaming skeleton who rides a motorcycle and hopes for a good movie, I wondered to myself in the theater. Well, me, for one. I wasn't expecting a good movie, really, but one can hope. I don't think that ...

Pros: special effects,Nicholas cage acting superb,fight scenes
Cons: Death of father and him leaving GF behind were not good

I went to the theater the week after Ghost Rider was released,as I didn't want to fight the crowd I saw the first weekend. At first,I though the movie was going to be boring and dull, but I love motorcycles,so I figured I would give it a chance. What ...

Pros: Great computer generated special effects!
Cons: Slow in some spots. Might understand better if you read the comic book.

The wife and I saw the previews for Ghost Rider of a flaming skull biker on a motorcycle. The wife stated she wanted to see it so we made it a night out with the pregnant daughter and son-in -law. My son-in - law stated he had read the Ghost Rider in ...

Pros: Nicholas Cage was there...
Cons: character flaws, weird story line

I've seen this film on screen and I wasn't a fan after watching it. There are a lot of negative things about the film. I think the weaknesses in the film were not brought by the actors. It was brought by the story itself. Eva Mendes was gorgeous and Wes ...

Pros: Eva Mendes pretty much flashes you through the whole movie.
Cons: Nicholas cage. I like alot of his movies but not this one.

I read the book based on the script and the movie doesn't even come close. I was disappointed. I was hoping for a Spiderman 1 caliber movie, this movie isn't even as good as Daredevil and that movie was terrible. The special effects of course were great but that was it. Nicholas Cage is only good in one type of movie and this ain't the type. The only positive I saw in Ghost Rider was the ending. I mean the end of the movie. The acting was corny and the bad guys were worse. This is definitely not a movie theater movie. Wait for the DVD. Get it from Netflix. Only then will you not be disgusted by the price you paid to watch it.
