Ghost Rider Spirit of Vengeance: so im gonna start off with saying this is not a great film at all….infact it’s not even a good film….here’s the trailer
Yeah from this trailer its obvious the tone and look is different….so im gonna give a brief summary of the plot…the plot is ghost rider must help a woman and her son escape the devil….because the devil is after him to put his soul into the kid…..because the kid is his son…because sure why not….and his Vessel is dying so he needs to put his soul into his son….don’t know why all a sudden his human vessel is dying…so now sense u got the plot…let me just tell u why I hate this film…..well this film uses alot of slow motion and shaky camera….don’t ask why, its the cheapest way to do an action scene.. .also ghost riders design and bike looks totally different…..I hate it……hard to explain his look….his skull is now grey and his outfit looks burnt….don’t know why….also his bike just looks like a normal bike with fire tires……just why? Did they have a lower budget?…or did the director not do his research?……so anyways in the beginning of this film a character named Moreau (played by Idris Elba) he tells Johnny he needs to go protect a kid and his mother….anyways when he gets to them…..the kid gets kidnapped by her ex boyfriend named Blackout (played by Johnny Whitworth)..who was hired by Mephisto (this time who is played by Ciarán Hinds)…anyways a fight does happen and ghost rider gets injured….yeah don’t ask how he could get injured….because script says so….. anyways so at the hospital he bumps into the kids mother…who’s named Nadya (played by Violante Placido), and they both team up to get her son back….long story short they find her son….a battle happens with ghost rider and with Blackout and his goons….here’s the clip I’ll admit it’s a epic mess……
So anyways they retrieve her son…..and Blackout gets crushed under rubble ….so the devil comes and gives him powers…..of decay…then asks him to go and retrieve the boy for him…….how!?….seriously!…..everything he touches turns to mold….so how he supposed to retrieve his son….anyways besides that stupid logic….we see a clip of him in a car and he trying to eat something but everything he touches turns moldy…wow congrats devil…u gave him a useless power…anyways but turns out the only food he able to eat is a twinkie…..haha ha
…..sigh……so anyways while Johnny Blaze and the kid and the mother drive to meet up with Idris Elba……while that happens….the boy and Johnny have some bonding time…and of course the boy asks him a dumb question….it was do u piss while on fire….
….trust me ill spare u the imagery….this scene shows then ghost rider pissing fire behind a black wall and he looks at the screen behind him and nods his head…
….great he broke the 4th wall….while pissing……..sigh……..anyways they get to Idris Elba…and he introduces them to monks….long story short turns out they secretly going to kill the boy because he’s the devils boy…..so anyways third act starts…..Blackout brings the boy to Satan…and he starts the ritual, but it gets interrupted by our tag team….and the rest of the third act is a car chase…..wait a min…the freaking devil is riding a car?…ok that’s it all chances of him being menacing is out the window….pun not intended…..oh so menacing, the all powerful devil is riding a tesla….
……anyways this whole car chase happens in day light and yet for some reason the ghost rider can come out yet it was established in the first movie that he cant…..sure, why not…at this point I’ve given up with this film….so anyways ghost rider kills Blackout……ghost Rider knocks over the devils car….and no the kid doesn’t get injured yet the car crashes intensly…but I forget physics ain’t a thing in this film…..and ghost rider send the devil back to hell….blah blah blah…now the ghost rider is a good guy and his flames are now blue….because why not….the end…..my god I hate hate this film….its cringy, it ruined the lore of what was set up in the first film….and on top of that….this film was ugly to look at…meaning constantly shaky camera and slow motion…..ugh …don’t see this film….watch the first one….its on Netflix…im gonna give this film a solid 1/10
