Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance

Will there ever be a decent Ghost Rider movie? Brian Taylor and Mark Neveldine’s Spirit of Vengeance pulls off the unthinkable and makes Mark Steven Johnson’s 2007 mediocre effort look like comic book gold. Visually stunning though he may be, the Rider is easily Marvel’s most uncharismatic hero and Nicholas Cage’s laughable penchant for overacting sure doesn’t make him more palatable. The plot is so minimal it could be summed up in a text message, Ciaran Hinds makes for the most unthreatening comic book villain ever, while the action scenes are a loud, incomprehensible mess. Worth seeing? Hell no.

  1. Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance was definitely not an entertaining flick.
