Cage on fire at box office with "Ghost Rider"

Posted by ElCaribeno4 1044 days ago

Nicolas Cage raced to the top spot at the North American box office on Sunday with the cult comic book adaptation "Ghost Rider," the biggest opening of his wildly oscillating career.

The Marvel Comics adaptation about the devil's motorcycle-riding bounty hunter earned an estimated $44.5 million during its first three days of release, putting it on course to break the record for the U.S. Presidents Day holiday weekend, distributor Columbia Pictures said.

    It was no doubt in my mind when I got a sneak peek at this fabulous movie. Has got to be one of the great films of the yr. Should win award for graphics. One of Cages best so far. Can't wait for part 2.

  • I saw this movi and is GREAT!!!!.
    Is the best movie about MARVEL comics, after SPIDERMAN, i have seen. Also this movie have a message. But i want that the second movie more larger. I like the movies from 2 hours and more, not less because is too fast. But the work of Eva and Cage was awesome, and they are one of my favorites ACTORS. The motorcycle was awesome!!!!!!!!

  • this has to be good, i mean one of the greatest actors of all time is starring in it, and i mean who wouldn't want to see sumothing where a man has his head on fire it's like human nature, as humans we experience the emotion of uriosity, so putting a guy's head on fire will obviouslly attract people woohoo i have to see it :) =) ^.^

  • Four reasons why people are seeing this movie:
    1) Nicolas Cage. Put his name on anything and people will go.
    2) Eva Mendes. There's the sex appeal
    3) A guy with his head on fire. That's just cool and will attract a lot of people.
    4) Based on a comic book. Comic book movies do well.

  • Caught it. It wasn't as wonderful as I expected it too. The effects were cool and all but it seemed as if he defeated Blackheart so easily. There wasn't really much variation in the moves and skills depicted. It was just his chain and that 'eye stare' thingy.

  • ok, this movie was only ok and not "great" for a number of reasons. one, wes bentley is a really shitty over actor who only made the movie corny. 2, while the special effects were nice, the sound effects sucked. half the time i couldn't even undersand what ghost rider was saying. 3, the way he kills the first three "bad guys" is extremely stupid. 4, the movie leads up to what would've been supposedly the huge big battle against blackeart, but instead of it being huge, he kills him like he was nothing, that was just really annoying. overall, i would reccommend that those of you who have not seen it to go see it. it is enjoyable, and has a good storyline. i just don't think it was "amazing" like everyone says it was.

  • I used to collect the comics of ghost rider, the later ones with dan ketch as ghost rider. This movie has done well blending both of the ghost riders. I loved it. The special effects added to the movie, not controlled it. I had my doubts about Cage as Johnny Blaze, but he did a good job. This movie is a must see for comic fans and a good movie for others.

  • Just saw it...twice!It's even better than i thought it would be.Cage didn't play it as dark as the comic.He had the usuall Cage mix of coolness and humor.

  • now, i am more exciting to see this movie. If movie critics didn't like this movie then they are not really what a MOVIE CRITIC. Most of my friends saw it and they said it was great. When movies like this come, I never ever to listen to the movies critics cuz they don't what a movie really is.
