It’s a $120 million dollar comic book movie starring Nicolas Cage and Eva Mendes, and the studio that made it might think it sucks so bad they’re going to skip the critics altogether and just dump the film into theaters on an unsuspecting populace. Maybe. The New York Post broke the story here: “Sony is dodging opening-day print reviews for “Ghost Rider,” which opens a week from Friday. Critics are being invited to the premiere the night before the opening as well as a “courtesy” screening on Friday, which means reviews will be buried in the Saturday papers.” Wow. We’re talking about a movie with a $120 million price tag here, kids, not some low-rent, $5-million dollar teen horror movie. What exactly does this say about the quality of “Ghost Rider”? I dare not opine.
Here are some stills from the (maybe really awful) “Ghost Rider”. The flick opens for domestic consumption on February 16th, 2007.
