Green Lantern 2011 review

By Game Guy,

    Ryan Reynolds nails down his A-lister status with a big superhero role. He is the Green Lantern in this big, baggy, flavourless 3D extravaganza in which his superheroic powers are explained with a long and tiring "mythic" prelude on a planet far, far away. Reynolds plays Hal Jordan, a test pilot and all-around hunky hothead, who discovers a green ring from another world, which gives him superpowers and a green costume, and also membership of an intergalactic green force that fights evil wherever it may be. Peter Sarsgaard plays Hector Hammond, a scientist who goes over to the dark side, having ingested alien spores that make him look a mad scientist. This is sometimes engagingly daft, but it simply fails to spark, and Reynolds – so good in recent movies like Buried and The Nines. It was pretty good so I give this movie a 7/10.

  1. don't you think that the story of Green Lantern is short even though its movie length is same as the others?
