Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance [Includes Digital Copy] [Blu-ray] [2012]

Wasn’t great as the first. 3D felt flat, no Atmos. -Feature: Wish I could have enjoyed it more. Pros: -Picture; 3D availability & was in the mid range. Nothing crazy good. Just average. -Digital Copy; HD only. Cons: -Sound; Could have used 7.1 DTS-HD master audio instead of 5.1. Leave that for the DVDs. -3D; Lacked some depth & no pop outs. -Slipcover; No lenticular cover. -Didn’t know it was a superhero movie, dislike them. They’re all About watching once & you forget about them. Nothing you want to watch again. -Gear used for sound & visuals: LG 65’ C6P 4k/3D passive OLED (manually calibrated) 9.2 Onkyo RZ + pre amp for 7.2.4/11.2 (integrated calibrated then manually tweeted with SPL sound level meter & balance/adjust for full dynamic range) Klipsch Reference Premier towers center sides rears dual R112SW subs Polk Audio MC80 8’ quad in-ceiling heights Oppo 4K UDP-203 Monster cables: Premium Black Platinum HDR HDMIs, THX Audio RCA, Digital Subwoofer Cables & Fiber Optic Ultra 1000 Monoprice 14 gauge awg copper speaker wire Nakamichi Speaker Plugs Auralex Acoustic Isolation platforms

I have a 3D tv So I try and get as many 3D movies I can This 3D movies wasn’t a disappointment Another great 3D movie

Great addition to our 3D collection at a good value

Blaze seems to have lost control of the Rider. Now he's trying to get rid of the Spirit of Vengeance.

Not what I expected after watching the first one but still it's pretty decent to watch.

Good movie. A really good sequel with amazing special effects.

Okay, I am going to try not to give too much of the movie away to any one that is hoping to go buy it. Let me start with Ghost Rider is the best comic character ever!!! With that being said, that is the only reason I gave this movie a rating of 3 stars. I am a huge Ghost Rider fan and this movie really disappointed me. Moreau was a good character, Carion was a good character, Nic Cage was good too (when they didn't have him "extreme" acting and jittering around)...even the mother was a good character in it. Unfortunately Sony screwed this movie up so bad by changing Danny's story line, they could've easily made this into the Spirit of Vengeance comic line w/ Blaze losing most of his power but still helping out the new rider, and Danny becoming the new Ghost Rider would've been a great lead into future movies...but instead they came out with this mixed up decayed script and filming that was an ultimate failure. Ghost Rider doesn't levitate, he doesn't drive a cruddy looking bike, his biker gear/clothes don't look like burnt marshmellows would...the direction of this movie was horrible as it was made by the people that did Crank as a movie of Crank. While I love Crank it was not the way to do a comic movie, too jittery way too often in the movie...made it cheesy and lame. This movie should have had more ties to the first since that one had a much better story, and again...it really didn't. Ultimately, if I wasn't a huge fan of Ghost Rider I would've never seen this in theater or bought the bluray (so I guess they win since I did still buy the bluray). Another disappointment was Best Buy had an exclusive steel book case if you reserved your copy early. I reserved mine as soon as it was available and there was supposed to be combo disc sets as there are with most movies these days. When I went to buy the movie I was told that it was a last minute change by the company (Sony) to make more money by only selling individual discs...WTH? My kids follow my lead and look up to me and they like most of the same things I do. I am a huge Ghost Rider fan, so they follow suit. How disappointed they were to see the bluray didn't come w/ a DVD copy for them to watch in their room. Another disappointment since there is no way I would ever pay double the cost for this movie. I will have to wait for it to join part 1 int he $5.00 DVD bin before they ever get a copy to watch on their DVD players...what a let down.

The movie itself is a decent movie it could have been done better. The 3D was well done though.
