But the devil deceives him, and Barton dies in a motorcycle accident during an exhibition. Johnny leaves the carnival, his town, his friends and his girlfriend Roxanne. Years later Johnny Blaze becomes a famous motorcyclist, who risks his life in his shows, and he meets Roxanne again, now a TV reporter.

I loved it!
19 February 2007 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

I loved this movie! It had everything right, and nothing wrong...entertainment at its finest. I wouldn't take young kids to see it(say eight years old or younger)not because it was graphic, just "disturbing" I love all the superhero movies (Marvel and DC) so I loved it and will buy it on DVD.I read some of the Ghostrider comics as a kid, so I think they deviated a little from the "true faith", but it stayed with the plot as it was written very well. It was well written, well acted, and the cinematography was out of this world! The special effects were cutting edge stuff, and the plot was complex enough to hold me interest, but not hard to follow.
