Wonderful character development!

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Not the best superhero movie of all time but this was a lot of fun. Ryan Reynolds is hilarious and a lot of the action is great. You can also tell that the people who made this film were actual fans of the character and his history, staying relatively faithful (for a movie) to the source material and comics. I wish they had done another one.

Got to say this was definitely better than the first Captain America. I'm just starting out with the MCU and this is actually really good, all this hype for THANOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSS who was in the movie ;) Can't wait to see Deadpool should be a good DC movie. Audio in

We were six years ago all optimistic that this film would rock and why to doubt the Dark Knight trilogy was pitch perfect up to that point and the next year it would be concluded. In other words it made scene in both the fan point of view and the business point of view. But the final product was a a epic let down.Now I won't repeat the reason of the awfulness of this film for they are already known, ugly CGI, stiff acting, too much exposition, lack of action and character development. No I will complain for the magnitude of the failure and what it meant for the DC. It meant that it couldn't follow the greatness of the recent batman films, the planned films based on this film were scraped, so they went two years later and made Man of Steel, originality to the minimum and overall a average over crowed film.Another thing that furiates me is that in 2009 a straight to DVD 45 minutes shorter manage to do what 200 million feature film couldn't (yes I am talking about the first flight). Seriously this is a issue with the DC films, say what you want about the Marvel films ,apart from Fantastic 4 of 2015 all after 2010 work as films!However this trend may finally been broken after the Wonder Woman film from earlier this June. I don't want to sound pessimist but after so many miss-fires only time and several more films with tell if DC has finally found its footing.In conclusion what this flick proved beyond any doubt is that fans will come to watch their heroes and heroines in the big screen but if you want to keep them and make them return you have to make good products.

After witnessing the death of his father in an aircraft accident "Hal Jordan" (Ryan Reynolds) grows up trying to be as fearless as he presumes his father was. This leads him to test his limits and accept risks that most normal people would not attempt. Then one day an alien from another galaxy crashes his spaceship and upon realizing that he his death is imminent allows the essence within a powerful ring in his possession to seek out a worthy recipient who has the courage to face his fears. Needless to say, the essence immediately finds Hal and brings him to the alien who proceeds to give him the ring and some final last words before dying. And so begins the life and adventure of another member of the Green Lantern Corps. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this could have been an excellent superhero film if it had a more serious or coherent plot. Unfortunately, the director "Martin Campbell" apparently couldn't focus on what kind of movie he wanted and the result was one which had some rather bad CGI along with some heroes and villains who belonged more to a children's matinée than a prime-time movie. In other words, it lacked the necessary intensity. Yet despite some of the negatives, it wasn't necessarily a total disaster as it still remained fairly interesting and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Average.
