![]() ![]() ![]() At an estimated cost of over $14.2 billion, it. It was the first world cup to be held in eastern europe, and the 11th time that it had been held in europe. It took place in russia from 14 june to 15 july 2018. It is Rated PG-13 for horror violence and disturbing images.2018 fifa world cup - wikipedia, The 2018 fifa world cup was the 21st fifa world cup, an international football tournament contested by the men's national teams of the member associations of fifa once every four years. "Ghost Rider" is mostly just mindless, fun eye-candy. I liked it for the most part, but still had my quibbles. People who enjoy Marvel movies or comic books are going to adore it, and others will think its garbage, and compare it to "The Hulk". Otherwise, this is a great geek-out movie. Unlike most Marvel films, this one has some scary visuals that you should probably be aware of before you take your 8 year old along. Fortunately, she isn't in the action scenes, so she didn't ruin those. Eva Mendes who plays Johnny's girlfriend is really bad. He is always brilliant, and always looks like a cowboy with his huge mustache. Sam Elliot as Johnny's mentor added a certain grace to the film. Mostly the visual effects are good as well, but there are some scenes where all you can think is, "What?!?!" One scene had Nic Cage in a towel and had CG sculpted abs that looked absolutely horrible. Seeing the Ghost Rider ride his motorcycle up and down skyscrapers while doing battle is pretty sweet. ![]() The action scenes carry the film, and are what earns the positive review. He added some intentionally humorous scenes. Usually I'm not a big fan of Nicolas Cage's, but he actually did fairly well as Johnny Blaze/Ghost Rider. Even though the plot aspect is stupid, the rest is descent. Especially since the devil is just an old guy in a trench coat, and his son and his friends look like a Gothic, punk rock band. That's the premise, it's quite implausible, and actually, it's downright silly. Instead, Johnny chooses to fight against both the devil and his son to rid the world forever of their evil. Nothing happens until many years later when the devil calls Johnny to bring back the devil's son, who has decided to go behind his father's back and take over the world. He will cure his father as long as Johnny sells his soul and becomes the next Ghost Rider. ![]() But when his father gets cancer, the devil comes along and makes a deal with Johnny. Johnny Blaze is a motorcycle stunt rider along with his father. It's about as unbelievably as you can get. But how can it not be cheesy when you have a plot like this. It was still cheesy, but in a deliberate way. I was expecting some cornball, cheesy superhero movie like the "Hulk". I went into "Ghost Rider" with zero expectations. ![]()
