6/16/2023 0 Comments Full ghost rider 2 movieNo, the real tragedy of Spirit of Vengeance is that it has all the pieces in place for total zonked-out craziness, but stops short. Let’s not even worry too much about the plot, which is some kind of cross between The Golden Child and Every Other Horror Movie Ever Made (Satan has fathered a child he wants to transfer himself into this healthier, younger vessel a renegade monk played by Idris Elba enlists a reluctant Blaze’s help in protecting the child from this demonic parent much screaming ensues yada yada). The bad news is that this sequel, which wants to wow us with its unrestrained, hyper-stylized, WTF-ness, is way too disposable for its own good. No movie that casts Ciará n Hinds as The Devil can be all bad, and in Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, the Irish actor brings his usual brooding charisma to the role of the ultimate villain, and it makes for a nice contrast to the wild-eyed histrionics of Nicolas Cage, here reprising his role as Johnny Blaze, the titular biker with a flaming skull (one of the more unlikely super/anti-heroes in the Marvel canon).
