A movie so bad that it's good

Movies are a diverse media that can either be insane masterpieces (Lord of The Rings 3), life changing or leave you with a new view on something (Moonlight for example, not really insanely great, but it left me with a better opinion regarding homosexuals), very cool movies that deserve a watch (Grand Bupadest), nice decent movies that hit good when you give them a watch (Blade, Godzilla Minus One), mediocre movies that are really enjoyable (any Michael Bay Transformers movie, minus The Last Knight, fuck that steaming pile of car waste), geniunely mediocre movies (almost alll netflix movies) and piles of radioactive shit.

Sometimes u can enjoy a bad movie as much as you would enjoy a good one, mainly cuz of the action.And while I could talk about parody movies, which are the embodiment of the "badly good movies", A superhero movie is actually pretty funny if you ignore the sex jokes, and Meet the Spartans is just a pile of pop culture shit plus 300.

However, one of my all time favorites badly good movie is without a doubt... GHOST RIDER SPIRIT OF VENGEANCE!

The 2nd and last GR movie, marking his "almost" absence from any form of media representation, before the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D gave us Robbie Reyes, meaning that Nick Fury could've added him to the Avengers roster instead of Hawktuah and make the team 1000Γ— times better.

The movie itself lacks any coherent story or any signs of possible good writing, but I still enjoy it nonethess, and lemme give you 3 reasons for why I like this hot mess.


1) Ghost Rider's design

Unlike the 2007 one, the 2011 movie has a new design for Mr. Hellish Aura Farmer himself, where he has a burned skull instead of a clean one.

(2007)

(2011)

I feel like it looks better than the clean one, given that it goes well with its outfit and looks like a skull that actually sitted on fire, but that's my opinion


2) Hype moments

DOES YOUR MOVIE LACK ANY DECENT WRITING AND COMPLEXITY?NO WORRIES, ADD HYPE MOMENTS THAT MAKE CHARACTERS LOOK BADASS AND YOU'RE DONE!

But seriously, I love the action that this movie had, compared to GR 2007.In 2007, he just does some cool shit, punches some dudes and gets beaten up by the villain.In SoV, HE LITERALLY ACTS LIKE A VILLAIN.Disinegrates people with its chains, eats takes rockets like a champ, eats bullets, melts them then vomits them back and ofc... HE MAKES A WHOLE CRANE GO ON FIRE

THE ACTION IS JUST DOPE!

and finally (a bit biased but idfc)

3) It's set in Romania (my country)

I love when movies finally take place anywhere but in the States, and I love more when some foreig folks go like "Romania is a neat ass place for filming".it makes me so happy that we get recognized on an international level not only for stereotypical reasons.

Also SoV is the only movie I've ever seen that (besides 4 months, 3 weeks and 2 days) has an accurate depiction of a romanian hospital.FINALLY, WE SEE OUR COUNTRY IN ITS PUTRID BEAUTY!

As a small conclusion, I love when superhero movies are just cool and wacky with its presentation, and Ghost Rider Spirit of Vengeance sure won't dissapoint you!

Kudos: 2
