Not Bad but could have been better

Rating: 5/10 (18 December 2011)

I am not a comic book junkie but I do like watching the Marvel titles. Ghost Rider was one I was really looking forward to. The special effects are very good and the story line is enjoyable. Sam Elliott and Peter Fonda play very good roles. I understand that Nicolas Cage is a big Ghost Rider fan but I have always thought his acting is too limited to be able to grasp particular characters well and unfortunately this is one of those times. I think with a stronger actor this could have been one of the best marvel movies. Also if you want an actress who can act forget about Eva Mendes (only good in Once upon a time in Mexico) but if you want some eye candy then by all means cast her. Looking forward to the sequel, just hope they don't forget things from the first movie like it happens in so many other sequels.
