Green Lantern (2011)

114 min, action, crime, fantasy

Director: Martin Campbell
Writers: Greg Berlanti, Michael Green
Stars: Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively and Peter Sarsgaard

Storyline:
A test pilot is granted a mystical green ring that bestows him with otherworldly powers, as well as membership into an intergalactic squadron tasked with keeping peace within the universe.

Review:
I must say I'm surprised how good "Green Lantern" is. From all I've read and heard about it I expected it to be watchable but nothing more. The biggest surprise was how good Lantern Corp characters are, truthful to the comics. Sinestro, Tomar-Re, Kilowog, Abin Sur are just perfect. As is Hal Jordan, played by Ryan Reynolds, who is really good choice for this movie.  The only character I didn't liked is Parallax's. It looked like shit in space, with a big head. Also I have to say that the story follows the comics almost perfectly, especially Hal becoming a Green Lantern, which was not the case in many former superheroes movies. So don't listen what are people saying or writing and go and see "Green Lantern"!

Rating: 7/10                                              Buy on Amazon: Green Lantern
