So one of the perverse pleasures of Ghost Rider (Columbia; 110 minutes; PG-13; widescreen; 2007) rests with watching Nicolas Cage go bananas prior to his inevitable, effects-mandated transformation into a supernatural-powered cyclist. Whether he's writhing on the ground like he's got ants in his pants or engaged in some eye-bulging, maniacal cackling as if he's just chewed up a cockroach (still the most endearing highlight of Cage's resume, dating back to 1989's Vampire's Kiss), Cage is still his own very best special effect. Sure, Cage also riffs on his Elvis addiction (the carnival scenes feel like a minitribute to Presley's 1964 tuner Roustabout, in which the singer played a surly biker) and there's quirk aplenty regarding [Johnny Blaze]'s fondness for jelly beans and Karen Carpenter...

• Lo Nuevo En Dvd

Las adaptaciones de héroes de los cómics al cine siguen dando de qué hablar, aunque no para bien (la reciente Spider-Man 3 se queda a años luz de los excelentes resultados de la segunda parte). Un caso más a añadir a la lista es Ghost Rider, que viene firmada por el director Mark Steven Johnson, el cual tiene en su haber otra (más horrenda aún) adaptación de un cómic, Daredevil. Universal Pictures sólo edita películas en alta definición en formato HD-DVD. Por eso ésta es la única forma de ver la hilarante, aunque irregular, comedia de los Monty Python, The Meaning of Life ($29.98); la entretenida Sneakers ($29.98), con Robert Redford y River Phoenix; las comedias con Jim Carrey, Bruce Almighty y Liar, Liar ($29.98, cada una); y la magistral Born on the 4th of July ($29.98), una obra mae...

The purpose of Amazing Grace is to unearth two arcane (to Americans, anyway) tidbits: the origins of the titular Christian hymn and the story of how slavery was abolished in England half a century before the Emancipation Proclamation. There's something a mite queasy about a film dealing with abolition that's staffed about 98 percent by white folks. But the film has such a lean, no-nonsense, workmanlike feel that it's more likely director Michael Apted simply didn't want to veer into bloated Amistad territory, content to stick with the politicking and little else. Even with a sterling all-British cast that makes room for both Albert Finney and Michael Gambon, Amazing Grace can't shake the stiff genre trappings, but it's unambitious enough in its liberalism to be genuinely uplifting. B- (...

IN THE DOCUMENTARY Giving the Devil His Due, director/writer Mark Steven Johnson says a longer version of Daredevil had been prepared, but was trimmed to meet studio requests.

• When in Rome

. Mark Steven Johnson's romcom is saddled with a very, very silly twist. The bright and beautiful Beth (Kristen Bell) has no luck with men. (Even though she's the "youngest curator at the Guggenheim"? Unthinkablel) At her sister's weddinq in Rome, she meets another New Yorker, the funny and handsome Nick (Josh Duhamel).
