Reviews for Ghost Rider
Bad fun if you're in the right mood, and a large part of the credit goes to Nicolas Cage.

Director Mark Steven Johnson is infinitely less concerned with exploring Blaze's smoldering, soul-deprived isolation than he is infatuated with the character's skull-'n'-bones imagery.

At nearly two hours, Ghost Rider is a little long for a guilty pleasure.
09/22/07
... Ghost Rider still manages to be a pretty enjoyable diversion if you don't hold it under close scrutiny. Or better yet, any scrutiny. (Extended Cut)
07/11/07
Ghost Rider as a whole adopts Cage's personality, which means it's watchable but seems to be kidding around a lot.
07/06/07
Ghost Rider fails for the same reason every bad movie does: poor storytelling and bad acting.
06/25/07
The movie has the look and feel of a western. The final showdown is in a ghost town in the desert.
05/22/07
An abysmal excuse of a film featuring Nicolas Cage's worst performance yet and only marginally improving on the Spawn formula.
04/28/07
Cage has to collect Satan's unpaid debts, meaning that he becomes a demon biker with a flaming skull for a head - and that's about it for this one-note film.
03/30/07
No skimpily dressed Satan-worshipping babes like in the original comics, alas. . .
03/29/07
When Blaze explains that he may not have a soul but he still has spirit, it's a little like saying, "I may have no heart, but I do have an organ in my chest that pumps blood through my body."
03/15/07
An oddly beguiling mixture of horror movie, biker flick, pulp Faust legend, redemption melodrama and western, featuring quite astonishing special effects.
03/10/07
Sometimes it sizzles. Sometimes it's a pale shadow of the comic book.
03/09/07
There’s nothing here that you haven’t seen previously in much better comic book movies.
03/07/07
The tagline for the new "Ghost Rider" movie promises that "Hell is about to be unleashed!" Actually, that might be an understatement. After seeing the movie, some might question whether it was the apocalypse that was unleashed.
03/05/07
It's ridiculous, likable, with some pleasing reminders of the Blade movies.
