Pros: Nice story, cool looking skull head.
Cons: Acting and direction sucked.

A movie I borrowed from a friend that said I had to watch it. I wanted to see it in the theatre when it came out but never got around to it. After seeing it I am glad I didn’t waste my money on it. This is the story of a teenager that makes a ...

Pros: See Review
Cons: See Review

Hasn’t the Marvel Comic Books stable of hero’s ran out yet? Apparently not; queue Ghost Rider (2007), a movie that when the credits rolled left a lot to be desired, and begged the following questions: how did this hackneyed script get past ...

Pros: 1. The first 15 minutes were OK 2. It's better than "The Hulk" (close call)

Cons: Could be a lot faster. PG-13, needed more vulgarity

My uncle bought the movie and definitely had me in mind when he bought it. To give some my background about collecting comic books -- Ghost Rider was my largest collection and I waited years for this to happen. Nicholas Cage as the devil's bounty ...

Pros: some cool scenes, special fx, good soundtrack, etc.
Cons: Cage, Fonda, very predictable, dull ending, etc. etc. etc.

No, of course I wasn't. What is there really to say about this film? I mean, it was just another generic super hero film made for the sake of it, not unlike Daredevil, the Punisher and whole slew of sub-par Comic Book movies. Ghost-Rider, directed ...

Pros: The special effects look good
Cons: Miscasting all around, bad direction of the actors, contrived dialogue

Pros: Um, Slightly watchable through the middle of the film...
Cons: The beginning, The ending & Much More...

I for one was not impressed with the previews of Ghost Rider, but on the other hand my boyfriend really wanted to see it. I was told by my brother, that it “was pretty good,” so I figured I could endure the film when we rented it. In Ghost ...

Pros: The idea of the "devil's deal" could be better utilized elsewhere; Cool fire effects.
Cons: Acting, Plot, Script, The fact that a sequel is in the works...

Something strange happened to me when I saw Ghost Rider with a couple of friends. For the first time in my life, I actually had the urge to get up and walk out. Of course, had I been alone this would've happened, but because of the people I was ...
