The Green Lantern - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 11-04-2011
I saw it on the plane sans 3-D. I had my expectations suitably lowered by the reviews.
What can I say? It was an entertaining ninety minutes. Ryan was acceptable as Hal Jordan. The problem they all have is all the back story or origin story which now seems very cliched. You would hope you could dive right into a story but you can't. Pretty much everyone has to be told the rules. And there are a lot of rules in this story. Which leads to a lot of exposition. Which didn't seem to leave a lot of room for the final big battle with Paralax.
But I still liked it. There were some laughs. From what I could see on the monitor, it looked pretty. It just came off as a little thin.
