You may find a new B-movie comedy classic. But if you're really stoned or just want to see cool sh*t on screen for an hour and a half and there's literally nothing else to watch, go ahead and knock yourself out with Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance.
Not even the great Nicolas Cage is enough to hold this piece of trash together. So in a nutshell, you don't need to see this movie. Ghost Rider looks badass, the visuals in the big set pieces are nice to look at, and if you have no interest in the story you can definitely shut your brain off and enjoy the insanity happening on screen.

To their credit, the CGI in this movie is pretty cool. You can't really blame any actors here because it's obvious the filmmakers wanted it to be a massive CGI-fest with stupid dialogue to lead action sequence A to action sequence B. Idris Elba is also in this movie for some reason and he's great in anything, even if his character is completely throwaway. You can tell he's invested in the role, and his dedication really holds this movie together. Nicolas Cage is always enjoyable to watch. But I'll be fair, not all of this movie sucks. I mean, the dialogue alone tries to take itself seriously but ends up providing really good unintentional laughs. So you may be asking yourself, "why give it a 4/10 if it's so awful?" Well, I'm a sucker for laughably bad movies and this definitely qualifies. The writing in this movie is especially horrendous did they hire a 10 year old to do the screenplay? It sure as hell seems like it.
This movie just pisses on Ghost Rider's origin (literally) and expects you to enjoy watching sh*t blow up for the sake of sh*t blowing up. You can tell this is the same guy that directed Crank: the difference is that movie didn't need any substance because the premise was so fun. It's just a bunch of things happening on screen oozing with CGI to make up for the complete lack of substance. It throws you right into the action with no exposition. No part of this movie is fleshed out and none of it is interesting. The first Ghost Rider was campy and stupid, but it was a watchable popcorn action movie and it had Eva Mendes (hence, watchable).
Is Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance one of them? Hell no. Long ago, superstar motorcycle stunt rider Johnny Blaze made a deal with the devil to protect the ones he loved most: his father and his childhood sweetheart, Roxanne (Eva Mendes). The guy has some hidden gems in his career. From Marvel Comics, creators of Spider-Man, Blade and X-Men, comes a new hero.Ghost Rider. I'll watch anything the guy does no matter how terrible the reviews are, and sometimes I'll be pleasantly surprised, as was the case with "Seeking Justice", "Drive Angry", and "Kiss of Death".
