Reviews were generally nasty in fact, Sony didn't screen the film for critics until opening day but that didn't stop Marvel Comics fans and action junkies from turning out in droves to see "Ghost Rider," which revs onto DVD Tuesday. Nicolas Cage having a very bad hair day plays the leather-clad, flaming skeleton on a motorcycle named Johnny Blaze. As a young man, Johnny had sold his soul to Mephistopheles (Peter Fonda) for his father (Brett Cullen) to be cured of cancer.
Wes Bentley plays the devil's obnoxious son, whom the Ghost Rider must send back to hell. Eva Mendes plays his childhood flame no pun intended with whom he reunites. Writer-director Mark Steven Johnson, who made the significantly stronger "Daredevil," helmed "Ghost Rider," which took two years after production began to hit theaters.
