When I was a kid I watched this without permission and I was banned from watching all 15s and my mum took away my Batman game that I was really enjoying but haven’t played it since.
I really like ghost rider, he’s probably one of my favourite super hero’s and as I kid I liked this film, so on my attempt at watching every marvel film ever made, I decided to rewatch this.
Also I watched adaptation recently and I’m very exited to see the unbearable weight of massive talent so it makes sense for me to see the nick cage marvel film right now. Fuck Tom Cruise as iron man, this is who should have shown up in multiverse of madness. I’m so exited to see ghost rider in the mcu (not counting agents of shield), he needs a film or show ASAP. An mcu ghost rider show would be incredible. Nick Cage can play Mephisto.
This film was super dumb and super cheesy almost to the point where it was comical. The acting was kinda weird. I think the character of ghost rider is cool but this was kinda boring.
Anyway this wasn’t a good film, but it was about a great and interesting character, who is fucking awesome. He rides a flaming motorbike off a building. It’s epic. I think it has potential to be a great series, but this film had bad acting and a simple plot, wasn’t great.
5.7/10
