lawrenceconwayvulcan SORRY RYAN BUT I ENJOY THIS FILM!This is film that has taken a bit of a knocking down the years, even from it's own star making quips in the Deadpool films. But for me it is a great film to kick back and watch. Ryan Reynolds is Hal Jordan the test pilot who comes into possesion of a ring that inducts him into the Green Lantern Corps, an Intergalatic Police Force. Hal must come through a gruelling training process in order to face the evil entity known as Parrallax. Green Lantern features some of most exotic alien worlds ever to hit the screen. Reynolds makes for a great Jordan in particuar the films cilmax where in one moment where Parrallax tries to bait Hal who in response recites the Green Lantern oath which will send a shiver down your back. with a supporting cast that includes Mark Strong, Blake Lively, Peter Saarsgard, Tim Robbins and Angela Bassett with voice work by Geoffrey Rush and Michael Clarke Duncan Green Lantern is a blast to watch.

stringplayer The only parts of this movie that weren't incomprehensible were incredibly boring.Unfortunately, there very few boring parts.

Michael Ledo The movie starts with a CG background science fiction origins of Green Lantern. The power of the Green Lantern is given to those who do not know fear. Parallax is introduced as the evil force which is "fear." As a Green Lantern lays crashed he releases his Green Lantern ring (force) to someone who doesn't know the meaning of the word "fear." Clearly that is Hal Jordon (Ryan Reynolds) who thinks he is Tom Cruise in "Top Gun" as he defeats 2 High tech pilot-less air craft by using a maneuver from Ironman.The movie spends a lot of time building background and lays the foundation for a multiple sequels. This is mostly an introduction of the character.While the Green Lantern is flying around impressing his former gf, mad scientist and son of a senator, Hector Hammond (Peter Sarsgaard) has been experimenting by injecting himself with microbes, which happen to be alien, creating the super villain for our super hero. They spent a ton of money on special effects. The ring may never make a mistake, but the casting director did. They should have gone the extra expense to get some real box office stars. Ryan Reynolds didn't hack it.No sex, no nudity, and no F-bombs. Good for kids.

Dargon This movie isn't the worst superhero movie. The CGI is the same as any other movie, the roles are fine, but it has Parallax. This would have been fine with just Hector and Sinestro, but it through in Parallax, kind of like Spider Man 3. Sure, some things are stupid, and I'm not a DC fanboy or Marvel hater, but I don't think this is the worse. Its not good, I just think its just a run of the mill superhero movie.
