On DVD, one good, one not so good

Saw two DVD movies recently and here's my review of them, though what you take of it will be up to you.

The first movie that I saw was Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, and while it wasn't like the first movie that they made, it was partly staying consistent. Once again Nick Cage brought the Rider to life and this time he was doing so because of a prophesy that had foretold that he would be the one to protect a child from becoming the new devil himself. Great visual effects and this time the Rider got to bring several things to life, all of which served to help the Rider beat any enemies that he came across, and during the entire movie the Rider only spoke once. The one difference between this movie and the first one was that he fed on souls in this movie and didn't judge them like he did in the first one. Personally I see that as only something minor and not really that big of an issue, but it would be something worth seeing once again if I would.

Now the second movie that I saw, Chronicle, that is a must avoid at all cost movie, it was bad right from the start, and never got better. When the teens gained their powers, you knew that something was going to happen when it came to the kid that was getting beaten by his father constantly, that right there was just the boiler point that would set him off, that and the fact that his mother was dying and the father was constantly blaming the son for it, which he shouldn't have been doing in the first place, however when you happen to have a drunk father, you know bad things are going to go down. Yeah from start to finish this one was that bad.

Right now I'm in the middle of watching several more DVD's and will also be eventually watching Expendables 2, of which all of them I will be reviewing for you all to check out or not to check out, let it be your own choice.
