Ghost Rider (movie)

Just seen it - Slated by the critics but I really enjoyed it. Same director as Daredevil which also got knocked by the critics but, again, I found entertaining. I am probably easily pleased but I would say try to take no notice of the critics - Make up your own minds. I'm sure you will enjoy the version 'Ghost Riders in the Sky' they play anyway:-)

Cheers

Dave

I agree. Fun flick for the genre.

Haven't seen it. I may when it comes out on DVD. I used to read the comic books when I was younger. I never saw Daredevil and won't. Not because of any quality issues, but because it is one of my favorite comic books of all time and I hate Ben Affleck and his stupid leather costume. Matt Murdoch he ain't.

Ghost Rider was a particularly great movie. I found the blue flowers planted around the lone tree on the hill in the 'romantic' scenes spectacularly .............. pretty? I LOVED it when he morphed into a killer skeleton - loved the bikes - oh I loved the whole wonderful ridiculousness of it, particularly Nicholas Cage being so, so, so, so, ................. oh hell, so Nicholas Cage! Great movie. Go and see it.

I don't like Nicholas Cage or have any interest in comic-book-derived movies but I might have to go see it just because my inner adolescent cannot resist the idea of a flaming skeleton on a motorcycle.

I saw it and loved it. I could have used a bit more Sam Elliot, though....I thought from the previews he's a big part of the story, but aside from being the voice of the narrator he's only in the movie for about 10 minutes.
