The worst superhero movie ever

Rating: 2/10 (18 February 2007)

So many reasons the movie was bad, but lets just go through some of my top ten. In no real order:
10. Eva Mendes shows us cleavage throughout the movie, except for the last scene. I enjoyed this aspect and had a good laugh about it throughout the film but why have her buttoned up at the end and only at the end, how about some consistency.
9. Fight scenes were god awful. I was hoping the last fight would be something worth sticking around for, but it was only marginally better then the rest. Why was it so bad, cause there was no exchange of punches in battle, each battle lasted only a minute. GR was never in any danger, hell a street thug did more damage than any of the demons. The sun was probably his worst enemy.
8. The demons hiding in different elements, what was with them. They sucked, sure they looked cool, but they couldn't fight their way out of a paper bag. The first scene with them has them all lined up and posing. Hey guys, you have the whole bar, why not spread out, this isn't an ad for jeans. They couldn't fight, and each fight scene only made the movie longer than it should have been.
7. The first time GR transforms it was done really well. I enjoyed it, but after that he turned into GR in a second, no skin melting or anything.
6. The dialog, dear lord why couldn't it have been a silent movie. My favorite line had to be "A man who believes in love, is a man who can change the world". Then gave Johnny Blaze the contract for the 1000 souls and possibly the end of the world. I laughed so hard I was crying.
5. Was that the bonanza theme I heard as both the Ghost Riders rode off.
4. Why did Sam Elliot just disappear. He rode with Johnny Blaze to the town, but that was it. He "had enough for one more transformation", so why didn't he stay as the GH till after the battle, just come out later. My point is why did he just ride with Cages character and use his last transformation for absolutely NO REASON.
3. Can Cage please stop doing accents.
2. The love story was so bad, so very bad.
1. The director has a good visual feel, but no substance. There is so much to this story, I don't know how he managed to mess up so badly. This movie was way to long, at least it felt way to long.
This movie is made for 10 year olds, and people who know nothing about Ghost Rider. The start of the movie looked really interesting, and they should have stuck to that. Set it in the old west or something. The special effects were decent, the ghosts at the end were done really well, as well as the first transformation. How Blackheart kills his victims was pretty cool. They may have been trying to make a campy movie. If you like campy, and corny (and yes crappy) then this movie may be for you otherwise, beware. This is not only the worst movie I have seen this year, it's the worst movie I have seen in many year.
