Leave your thoughts about Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance.
| Tampa Bay TimesSteve PersallGhost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance offers Cage plenty of opportunities to tap his inner circus geek, to twitch, cackle and flail without shame, going full tilt batwing crazy. Not since he danced in a pagan bear suit in The Wicker Man has Cage appeared this unconcerned about what the audience will think. |
| Laramie Movie ScopeRobert RotenI would not have bothered to go see this except for the fact that I liked the first "Ghost Rider" movie, starring Nicholas Cage. This was a disappointment. |
| Mania.comRob VauxThis film sucks on a level I can scarcely describe. |
| Entertainment WeeklyAdam MarkovitzMost of the movie's action-horror set pieces play like lame Gwar music video outtakes, and Cage's signature mix of irony and off-the-rails mugging only works when you can see the actor's face. In Ghost Rider form, his character is just a skeletal automaton with neither a tongue nor a cheek to put it in. |
| IGN MoviesScott ColluraDirected by the team of Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, the new film brings all the cartoonish insanity of the pair's Crank saga to the -- let's face it -- cartoonishly insane concept of the Ghost Rider, a burning skeleton in leather who rides an equally fiery motorcycle. It's a match made in, er, hell. |
| AV ClubNathan RabinThe charismatic Idris Elba debuts in a key role as an alcoholic priest who recruits Cage's unique services. Yet instead of elevating the franchise, Ghost Rider: Spirit Of Vengeance ends up squandering even more potential. |
| Film School RejectsRobert LevinThe filmmakers understand that they have happy, productive, kooky Nicolas Cage on hand, not sullen money-hungry Cage, and they let him loose. |
| Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)John BeifussUnder the turbocharged bad-trip direction of 'Crank' auteurs Neveldine and Taylor, this impossible and absurd scenario seems inspired not by a comic book but by a drug fiend's delirium. |
| CNNRadioPaul Chambers"Ghost Rider" is coming to suck out your soul. Or, at least $14 from your wallet. Paul Chambers, CNN. |
| Urban CinefileAndrew L. UrbanAstonishing effects, brilliant production design, great locations, relentless pace and some wry lines well delivered give the film excellent entertainment value |
