Once intended as a feature for Johnny Depp, the long-germinating feature film adaptation of Marvel Comics' cult title Ghost Rider stars Nicolas Cage as motorcyclist Johnny Blaze, who transforms into a skull-faced angel of vengeance to battle the forces of evil. Though perhaps a bit too mature for the role, Cage brings a degree of humor to the outrageous proceedings; he's well matched by the Easy Rider himself Peter Fonda, amusingly cast as Mephistopheles, the demon with whom Blaze strikes a bargain to save his father, and in turn, causes his transformation into Ghost Rider. Wes Bentley is also fine as Blackheart, the rebellious offspring of Mephistopheles, and Blazes' chief opponent in the film. They're joined by a solid supporting cast which includes Donal Logue, Eva Mendes, and Sam Elliott, but their participation and a relentless barrage of CGI effects can't hide the fact that the story itself, though largely faithful to its comic origins, is rife with cliched characterizations and glum B-movie dialogue. Fans of the venerable title may cry foul over this adaptation (as they did over helmer Mark Steven Johnson's previous comic-to-movie feature, Daredevil), but less stringent viewers may enjoy the fiery visuals and Cage's typically quirky performance. --Paul Gaita

I must agree with ma017's review. Too much devoted to the visual effects, which are truly spectacular, and way too little effort spent on an intelligent story and character development. The direction was substandard also. You have a great cast who deliver their lines like they can't wait to get it over with so they can collect their check and burn rubber getting out of there;-). The hottest thing about this movie is Eva Mendes who has way too little screentime IMHO.

Fantastic movie - worth watching more that once. Nicolas Cage and Sam Elliott are wonderful together and are both great actors.

Just a plain fun flick. Not being a comic book fan, I barely knew the story, so I saw it with more humor than seriousness. If it's taken seriously, then, yes, it really has some drawbacks.
