Ghost Rider

Released: 2007
Final Rating - 6/32
Jeff Rating - 12/32

Stunt motorcyclist Johnny Blaze gives up his soul to become a hellblazing vigilante, to fight against power hungry Blackheart, the son of the devil himself.

What the Critic said: Ghost Rider is a sour mix of morose, glum histrionics amidst jokey puns and hammy dialogue.

What I said: The over the top acting and special effects are more in line with expectations for a film aimed at 9 year olds rather than an adult audience. 

Another movie where the three reviewing parties disagree on the placement.   The Audience factors placed this movie at 7/32, the critics and box office results a little lower, yet I had it six places higher.   In my mind this movie was better than the next few on the list, but it ends up right where the critics and audience have it placed.
