Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (2011)



Johnny Blaze, tortured by the Ghost Rider's curse, gets a chance of redemption through protecting the Devil's son, whose father is pursuing him.

Pure trash cinema: silly story, mayhem and a cast of overacting stars.

Maltin BOMB: "Even worse than the 2007 film; the potential for spectacle is trashed by the relatively low budget."

Gamer (2009)



In a future mind-controlling game, death row convicts are forced to battle in a 'Doom'-type environment.

Action-packed sci-fi thriller made in video game aesthetics and with a message, but basically just as mindless as the games it seems to critisize.

Maltin**1/2: "Neo-modern take on this premise is unexceptional in terms of plot but holds its own for techno-thriller devotees, upgrded by Hall an Butler's performances."
