Title: Movie Reviews
Post by: grinders_18 on February 17, 2007, 10:40:35 PM
Let's start a new topic. If you've seen a newly released movie, go ahead and review it here.

Ghost Rider
2-17-07
4 out of 5 STARS
My girlfriend and I went to this. We loved it. Overall, 4 out of 5 stars. It had a great plotline, good character development, and some damn good CGI elements. I won't go too in depth about the plotline; a man makes a deal with the devil to save someone he loves, and later on in his life, the devil comes to collect his soul. The ghost rider must make a decision throughout the movie to follow the devils orders and save his soul, or ignore him and try to save his life, and others'. End of reveals. The enemies were fairly well developed, even though it took awhile to figure out who was who. It worked very well keeping me on the edge of my seat; not having read a review I found it very unpredictable. As unpredictable as a Marvel Comic's movie has been lately, since the Punisher. Action sequences were packed full of both CGI and realism; not at all times, but during any aftermath scenes it worked well. The hero and his girl were both very well matched. Nick Cage played a great antagonist, and you really beleive his struggle. The only unbelieveable part was his transformation. Eva Mendez was both hot and a great actress; many great scenes with her in it. The best, in my opinion, was Sam Elliott's part. For fear of ruining the movie for those who haven't seen it, I can't reveal his character, but he and Nick Cage have a GREAT riding scene together. This movie scores 4 out of 5 stars based on the facts that it was a fun, energenic, and gripping movie with great characters and very decent CGI, the only downfall is the bridge between CGI and standard film; it'sd obvious it's CGI but you can easily look past it.

I went and saw Norbit last night with my gf and that was a really good movie.  Some parts were frickin hilarious.  It is hands down the best Eddie Murphy movie I've ever seen.  Excellent :thumb:
