By day, Johnny Blaze (actor and comic-book devotee Nicolas Cage) is one of the world's best-known stuntmen, but when the sun goes down and he is in the presence of evil, the death-defying daredevil bursts into flames to become the indestructible, motorcycle-riding antihero known to the world as the Ghost Rider. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Twisted's Review: This is one of the best comic book turned movie I have seen since Constantine! I loved it!!!I have to give props that this is also I little safer for the kiddos due to the fact that 1) No sex! That is a definite plus in my eyes and 2) the violence was not gore and blood. Without giving to much away, the story line was easy to keep up with regardless if you know about Ghost Rider or not because all through the movie it gives a run down of the History and how he became (All with my man Sam Elliot narrating). Never once was I lost or confused about what was going on a I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. There is not more I can say than that the end is shocking and expected at the same time.
