I always get a happy picture in my head whenever I think about that . . . sad right . .myron wrote:nah, gets shot and and blocks bullets with his chest and then ducks when they throw the gun at him...cobra_commander wrote:He doesn't like knives?myron wrote:...superman syndrome, I call it...Jaknife wrote:so, can anyone tell me why he needs to get stitches for a knife wound to the shoulder, but can take a bullets and a semi to the face without a scratch?
Spoilers:
Just saw it.
Lot of plot holes. What was the point of Sam Elliot's character changing into the Ghost Rider only to just hang out? As well, Sam Elliot's beard... I kept asking myself, is it natural for him to have hair that high up on his cheek? (Face lift?)
Again, the knife attack needed stitches? The night stick to the face was no effect? Crushed by a car? No effect? Shot? No effect?
Except for the final one, the fight scenes were over in an instant (must have been too expensive to have one of the combatants have a flaming skull for a head).
Plus side: Some of the visuals were cool.
Overall verdict:
Wait for it on TV. This one is sloppy.
Below Daredevil.

I expected the movie to be horrible, but I was pleasantly surprised by it. Nick actually did a halfway decent job with the role.tarheelmarine wrote:Finally saw this and thought it was pretty cool.
