Ghost Rider

A great comic book flick and a big win for Cage with a box office intake of $45 million this past opening weekend.

Ghost Rider has lots of action for the guys and a minor love interest for the girls with Johnny Blaze's old girlfriend played by Eva Mendes. And if you like the good triumphing over evil plot then this is the movie for you. You can't get more evil than the devil... unless it's the devil's offspring.

And for the chopper lovers there's lots of those and some cool motorbike stunts as well. And you gotta love that chain whip that Ghost Rider uses to get the bad guys.

Based on the 1970s Marvel comic book, I think Ghost Rider predates Spawn, but there are some parallels to the stories. The devil's bounty hunter, or leader of the army of darkness, as the case may be, taking his devil-given powers and deciding to use them for good.

Overall, a pretty good night out.
