I think I will go see it when I get a chance to , cause I have never sine a bad movie with Nick Cage besides Adaptation.
Few other good movies comin out this spring are Reign On Me (Adam Sandler) , Number 23 (Jim Carey) and Wild Hogs (Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence and John Travolta).
BTW has anyone seen Night At The Museum!?

We saw it about three weeks ago. I thought it was going to be really dumb but I thought it was really good.

I love superhero/comic movies, but this one doesn't appeal to me. Looks like another Daredevil-type flop.

Can't wait to see it, looks fantastic! I love Cage, he's gonna play Liberace too (we share a birthday :shock: ).

I'd like to see this one, too. I love Nicolas Cage flicks! I read the review in the paper this morning it was not a bad review, but not glowing either. It does mention that Cage does a lot of his manic acting that we've seen in other movies. I will probably have to see it for that reason, if nothing else. He is hilarious when he gets manic!!

If you haven't seen "Vampire's Kiss", make sure you do. Cage at his craziest.

Alas, no "booty calls" for me ! Too damn busy and where I live, the men here are not up to my standards.

Yeah, I get movie boots. It is nice to know someone who can get them. Then I can watch the movie, then decide if I want to buy the dvd when it comes out. :D

Saw it tonight. Good "looking" movie. Good special effects, Eva is hot, Nicholas is cool and Sam is Charismatic as ever. Love that Peter Fonda plays the devil.
But I think it would have benefitted from a different director. Something was missing. Some scenes felt like they were only there to fill time. Nick needs to drop the Elvis thing (watch the sunglasses and a few poses). Some seemed too slow, some seemed too quick.

It is enjoyable, but I think it could have been MUCH better!

My son in law and grandson went to see it yesterday, but I haven't heard their review yet. I think I'll get the wallpaper, the grandson will get a kick out of it. :)

Call me crazy, but isn't Nic Cage just a MITE old to be playing this role?

It struck me that way too when I first heard about it and saw the trailer. It seemed more like a Vin Diesel(sp) kind of role, but then again, Cage does make it more interesting, more creds maybe.

I personally thought the acting was good for the most part. The story could have been better in some spots. I'm not revealing more to not ruin it for others

The story was okay. The villians were pretty lame. My wife and I took 2 of my nephews and my niece. They all liked it (except my wife) Overall I give it 3 out of 5 stars.

I LOVED Ghost Rider in the comics when I was a kid.

I was disappointed in the movie. It could have been SO MUCH better.

They dropped the ball on this one. They had the CGI - Ghost Rider himself was great.

Too much cheese, too many plot jumps, not enough depth.

What can you expect from a comic movie? Oh wait, they got Spider Man right - so there ya go!

Can't wait for Spidey 3.

And they better not mess up the Surfer in FF2. I was SORELY disappointed with FF.
