Ghost Rider, not so much bad, not so much good.

Ghost Rider is a mixed bag for me. On the one hand you have a pretty decent reprensentation of the characther from the comics. It looks like Ghost Rider on the screen and the special effects are definetly worthwhile. On the other hand there are some awful choices in camera work and the jokes all fall flat. That blame should rest on Mark Steven Johnson who not only was allowed to direct this after Daredevil, he even was allowed to write the screenplay. Im not sure why Marvel trusts him with there properties but I guess as long as he keeps getting money in the box office they will keep hiring him. It doesn't hurt that this is a Feburary movie and as such i could stomach it. But if it was running with the big boys in Summer I got to feel it wouldnt make much of an impact.
If comics are your thing, then you can probably enjoy enough of it to get by, you wont be amazed by any means, but may and spider man 3 are aways off, and it's either this or Norbitt. I can't wait for my summer "popcorn" flicks.
