Bringing the enduringly popular superhero to the big screen for thefirst time, Green Lantern stars Ryan Reynolds (X-Men Origins: Wolverine)in the title role, under the direction of Martin Campbell (CasinoRoyale). In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerfulforce has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, theyare called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors sworn tokeep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grantshim superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens todestroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate ofEarth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human everselected: Hal Jordan. Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but theGreen Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessedthe infinite powers of the ring before

The characters were forced. It felt like they were just not getting the parts. Only k moments were when the costume wasn't on like when he chatted with his nephew. And -I know this is nitpicking- but a villain initiating a legitimate attack on the earth should have been a bit larger. It appears huge in space then diminished significantly on the planet PLEASE make a "do over"!

It's an introduction to Green Lantern really. Best viewed in Extended Cut version where you see him as a child and not just in flashbacks. Ryan Reynolds did good, but it was Parallax's "cloud" that I can't accept and why Sinestro wore the Yellow Ring without further explanation. It should've been done in the last part of the sequel. I hope GL gets to have follow up movie. Don't reboot. I forgive the first one, do it better in the second one.

It wasn't awful, I'll give it that. But ummm. The sheer number of common sense lapses are astounding. I initially watched a long time ago (when everything was new and fresh and shiny and O.M.G. superheroes and superpowers) and I couldn't enjoy the movie even then because there were just so many things that common sense would have solved. So, fricken' many.
