    Just as good as the first but no A.

    by Lapitup

    The movie has a European feel to it, which actually worked for the movie in this one. The demon theme is a bit old now. The story line was there but boring at parts. Cage played himself (as usual) again not bad in this setting; it worked for NOT against the movie as a whole. Age limit 26-28 any older you have probably already seen it and done it before yet graphics were top notch and the cinematography was great. Over all I give it 3 and 1/2 stars out of 5.

    I liked the other demon; yet my friend did not so it is 50/50 if you will like how they portrayed this demon and his powers. Overall I say go especially if you have a son/daughter that is in to comics or this type of genre. We did enjoy ourselves for the most part.

    sometimes the second time is better

    just saw the ghost rider 2 and ive got to say it was a fun action packed ride that i highly recommend. Now there will be the usual Nicolas Cage haters that are going to go on about his terrible acting and stiff persona blah blah..........get over it its a movie about a guy who goes on fire not an academy award aspirant. When Cage is interrogating this one guy as he is trying to hold back the demon I could not stop laughing and that is the point of a movie of this kind, to have fun and enjoy the journey. If only the writers of Journey to Mysterious Island had half the imagination that the writers of this movie had it also would have been good. Leave your prejudice of Cage behind go and see this movie and enjoy.

    Waste of money

    by

    I saw this movie today with my husband, we loved the first ghost rider movie and were excited to see this one. But where to begin? The 3D... Was a double vision blurry mess! By far the worst 3d movie I have ever seen as far as quality goes. The story of this movie was non existent. And the direction looked like it came from a bunch of teenagers. The ghost rider was way too animated and not at all believable. The acting was just ok, but not what I expected from Nicholas Cage. I was left bored and would have left if I were there alone. Big disappointment!

    Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance

    Real good story line and graffix but, some of the movements on the Ghost was dumb! Other than that I hope the next one is better! To the producer, "What is up with trying to do comedy in a super hero movie?"

    Worst Movie of 2012 so far

    They are going to have to work really hard to top this for the worst movie of the year! There was no plot to speak of, and definitely no surprises in the storyline. Most of he acting was ok although Nicolas Cage's performance was almost comical it was so bad. I suggest stay at home and watch the weather channel for better entertainment.

    What A Waste

    After the 2007 movie did not do well....let me say this the only thing good about that version was the CGI . The story, plot, and character development was so bad that as a huge fan of the comic book I just would've rather seen the comic just stay that......a comic. Well Directors Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor decided to take on Ghost Rider, well to my dismay they failed. Unlike the first film CGI can't save this one the story was horrible the camera work was hurky jerky and pretty much made me sick. The story, yes folks the story where the hell was it. There was no story, plot or anything else, but this film is so bad that I rather save you your hard earned money. This film was a total waste of good comic book material and according to the directors they read the comic book. As a fan of the comic book they didn't read enough. This version of Ghost Rider was a total waste of time and money.

    Aweful!

    This was by far the worst movie i seen all year so far. The first movie was fantastic this was obviously low budget with a bad script. Do not waste your money. Wait till it is on HBO

    Not a good movie

    I was very disappointed with the movie. I really like the first one, but this one has a totally different feel... and not for the better. They tried to make it so you don't have to have seen the first one, but as a standalone flick this movie was bad.

    Besides the obvious continuity errors between the first move and this one, Spirit of Vengeance is a poorly made movie. I think the special effects on the motorcycle were barely okay, but the bike didn't "turn in to a demonic machine" like in the first movie. It basically was a bike that was on fire. A little bit of a let down for me.

    There really is just so much wrong with this movie in regards to continuity in itself, references to the history of the Ghost Rider, and not-so-great special effects, I have to say that it left me disappointed. However I was happy that I didn't pay the extra money for the 3D version. I say wait for this to hit Redbox or OnDemand... You'll feel better paying $4.95 to see it.

    Disappointing

    Both my daughter and I were looking forward to seeing this sequel and choose to ignore the reviews, which we normally do. Well, this is one of the few times we have to agree with the reviews. WE WERE DISAPPOINTED! This movie was no where near the first movie in terms of story line and generating interest during the movie. The acting felt 2nd rate and the times when he transformed into the Ghost Ride, instead of being eerie, seemingly realistic and cool to watch, it was corny, cheesey and became aweful to watch.

    EXCELLANT!!

    I DONT KNOW WHY ANYONE WOULD RATE THIS BADLY.CINEMATOGRAPHY WAS INSANE/INCREDIBLE. ACTING WAS PERFECT FROM EVERY SINGLE ACTOR --ESP. NICHOLAS WHO WAS TOTALLY INTO CHARACTER THE WHOLE TIME. BUT IF U DONT KNOW ACTING,WRITING,CREATIVITY AND WHAT IT TAKES TO MAKE A FILM LIKE THIS THEN I GUESS U MIGHT PUT IT DOWN SO U SHOULD PROBABLY JUST STICK TO THE CHICK FLICKS!! GOOD VS EVIL AND KICKS *** IS ALWAYS A GOOD STORY.

    Good Story Traded for Good Action

    For all you people saying that this movie lacked in a good coherent story line, you are right. But that doesn't make it a bad movie. The story is good enough to where you can follow it easily, but what makes up for it is he great action. I left the theater satisfied with the action delivered during the movie. But if you are a person who goes to movies solely for story and nothing else, you will be disappointed. Overall, if you want to go see a movie with satisfying action by all means go and see it.

    GHOST RIDER --SPIRIT OF VENGENCE

    LOVED IT!!!!! --IT IS A MUST SEE, I GIVE IT 5 STARS, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO SEE IT IN 3-D. THE EFFECTS ARE -"WOW", AND THE PLOT IS EXCELLENT. I BELIEVE THIS IS BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL AND HAS MUCH MORE SUBSTANCE.

    Ghost Rider...ride out of town!

    I would not recommend this movie to anyone. After talking my wife into seeing this instead of another movie...I was very sorry that I did. The first one was MUCH better. Skip this one unless you want to be bored for an hour and 36 minutes!

    Ghost Rider: Spirit of another comic book movie going to the Dark Side

    by abctoy

    Cage was Good - Story Bad! Why do movie makers think they have to go so Dark? Comics have gone the same way. Sick minds of the artist making these newer comics and movies. I enjoyed the 1st Ghost Rider very much but this, I wanted my money back.
