![]() ![]() Nicholas cage is funny and quirky as johnny blaze and eva mendes is impossibly sexy (as per usual)but for the most part its all very cheesy and feels rushed and episodic.Also, the villains are frustratingly lame, including black heart who's severely downgraded from his comic book incarnation. When hes not on screen though ,things aren't that interesting. Watching him ride down buildings, fight villains and flip the bird to the police is a cool sight to behold. It works the same way with the movie: seeing ghost rider in action provides almost all of the films entertainment value. In fact hes TOO cool - it seems that in any comic, cartoon or game hes involved with, he always comes out as the most interesting thing. The chain ,the bike, the flaming skull for a head -he's just plain cool. ![]() He leaves Roxanne and they depart ways as Johnny rides off into his destiny.Ghostrider is a brilliantly designed character. He denies, declaring he would own the curse and be the Spirit of Vengence. When Roxanne is saved, Mephisto arrives to collect the Contract and offers Johnny is soul back. Blackheart, who is still holding Roxanne hostage, obtains the contract and absorbs a thousand souls.īut Ghost Rider uses his penance stare to steal the souls away from Blackheart and he consequently dies. Together, they Carter and Johnny both ride off to find Blackheart, but Carter is unable to help him since he could only transform one more time. When Johnny finds the Caretaker, they both agree to take down Blackheart, revealing that he is in fact, Carter Slade and was another demon called the Phantom Rider. He then tells him the Caretaker was holding the Contract the whole time and instructs him to collect it and bring it to him. She goes to his apartment, where Blackheart is waiting, and he holds Roxanne hostage to set a trap for Johnny. Roxanne sees the Ghost Rider in the action, now realizing Johnny was telling the truth, and he rides off. After a quick battle, the police find him again and he drives up a building to escape them. He then comes across another evil spirit by the name of Abigor, who was sent by Blackheart. He becomes the Ghost Rider, steals one of their spiked leather jackets, and escapes. They throw him in jail where he is confronted by several evil criminals who then begin to attack him. Police later arrest Johnny as they have discovered that he was the one terrorizing the town. Roxanne, unsurprisingly, doesn't believe him, and they leave on bad terms. Johnny then reveals to Roxanne that he is the Ghost Rider, and that is why they can never be together. He finds Roxanne again in the midst of the destruction the Ghost Rider had caused the night before and they meet again at his apartment to talk over their date incident. He tells of Blackheart's history as Johnny learns that he and his minions were once angels cast out of Heaven. Ghost Rider then blacks out and wakes up at a graveyard, where he meets a man known as the Caretaker. Ghost Rider stops him with his Penance Stare, which confronts the mugger with the murderous crimes he had committed and reverts the pain he has brought to himself, stealing his soul and effectively killing him. As he rides off on his flaming motorcycle in search of Blackheart, he comes across a woman being threatened at knifepoint by a hooded mugger. He quickly finds Blackheart but is abruptly crushed by a truck, who the driver Ghost Rider quickly kills. Thus, he gives him the power of a demon and he transforms into the Ghost Rider. Later on, Mephisto calls upon Johnny and instructs him to retrieve the Contract of a Thousand Souls to him from his son, Blackheart, on a deal that he would return his soul. After the stunt, he asks Roxanne out on a date. Just before his biggest stunt, he meets Roxanne again, who is now a reporter. ![]() Years later, Johnny Blaze is a big-time performer who pulls off outrageous bike stunts, and, due to his inability to die, he perfects each one without injury. Because of this, Johnny is unable to run off with his girlfriend, Roxanne Simpson. ![]() When he dies anyway, the devil known as Mephisto claims his soul. Johnny Blaze, a motorcycle stunt performer, makes a deal with the devil to cure his dying father of cancer. As the only one who can walk in both worlds, Johnny is charged by Mephistopheles (Donal Logue) himself to destroy Blackheart (Wes Bentley), a demon that wants to overthrow Mephistopheles and create a worse hell than the one that currently exists. Now, he transforms into a fiery, avenging agent of justice at night wherever evil roams. Years ago, motorcycle stuntman Johnny Blaze (Nicolas Cage) sold his soul to save the life of a loved one. ![]()
