The movie itself was good, but there was a few issues I had with it

Rating: 8/10 (19 February 2007)

OK, it sounds to me like a bunch of people who hate comics went to see the movie and then bashed it. That, or a bunch of NERDS when to see it who were over obsessed with comics and bashed it because it wasn't 100% comic accurate. About the movie itself, it was good. Nicholas Cage I felt did a pretty good job acting in this one, and from what movies I've seen him act in, he does a fair job acting. The action was picture perfect, and to me it followed the art style of the actual comic Ghost Rider. The voice of Ghost Rider, I thought, fit perfectly. It was how I always imagined him sounding, ignoring of course the cartoon.
Now I'm not about to sit here and tell you this movie was perfect. It had it's issues, ones that severely cut down my thoughts on the movie. First, Johnny Blaze's relationship with Roxanne was forced extremely. It was so unrealistic to imagine that after 14 years all of the sudden she was willing to get back with him, and after he didn't show up she was only mad for a short period of time. In addition Eva Mendes' acting was terrible. She was a terrible choice for acting. Also, the climax fight between Blackheart and Ghost Rider was very, well, anti-climatic. It was so short lived and there wasn't even any real display of power on Blackheart's part. He was just kinda stumbling around mumbling to himself before being killed. Anyway, this is one movie you have to see to decide for yourself. You can't trust reviews on this one. I know someone who made that mistake, even though that movie is his favorite now. Make the decision for yourself.
