based on a Marvel Comic, Johhny Blaze was the Ghost Rider, who exchanged his soul with the devil to cure his father. struggling with the curse, Johnny hid in a remote area, away from civilization. Moreau was part of the church, he appeared and asked Johnny to track down Danny, a boy who was wanted by the devil. Johnny was reluctant to use his power, but it could rid himself of the curse in return.
unlike the sophisticated first sequel, this sequel featured more actions and doesn't really have a strong plot to hold it together. it was most of the time predictable, with a child actor that doesn't quite fit into character no matter how hard Nicholas Cage outshone his. it was extremely fun watching Ghost Rider controlling vehicles other than his motorcycle, although most of it came to an end way too fast. there were even some weird humor, which sort of ruined the deadly feel created for the Ghost Rider character since its first sequel. having watched the first sequel, one can definitely identify a different feeling this second sequel gave out. it may not be a bad attempt, but it still lack attractions.
