Really Surprised!
Did you people see the same film I saw?
I gave this movie a 10, because there are obvious dumb people who don't know about cinema and super heroes, and gave it bad critics for being ignorants, so, I straighten the balance a little bit with my ten, people who don't understand films, specially super heroe films, should be banned of qualifying films, this one was even better than any poor dark knight movie, WAY BETTER, like, a lot... it's totally unffair!
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
******May Contain Spoilers First off I was very thrilled that they finally brought this character to the big screen. I had probably waited longer for this comic book character to get a Big Budget movie made more than any other Superhero character. This is my favorite Superhero. So when I learned they were making this movie, I could hardly contain myself.Now, the movie. I'D Like to say first, that I don't think this movie as bad as the critics said it was. It's actually an enjoyable movie. . . Now with that said, let also say that although its not bad, I was expecting this to be so much better than it is.I felt they used too much CGI, at times I felt almost like I was watching a cartoon. I wasn't crazy about the villain, it looked like he was fighting a Smog Monster. That entire last fight sequence seemed a bit anti-climatic to me, and I feel could have been done much better. Also felt like the movie needed more action. I would have like to have seen the Green Lantern do more crime fighting on Earth after he made himself known to the public. I think it would have been great to see the Green Lantern thwart a bank robbery, stop a runaway train full of passengers(stuff like that - Afterall, don't we go to see Superhero movies to see Superheros do Superhero things?) There was some positives I took from this movie. I liked Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan (when I first saw that he got this role, I had doubts- He pulled it off very well)...Mark Strong as Sinestro was Superb!Blake Lively was good in her role. All the actors did fine. Another positive I took from this was the Musical Score which also superb. There are certain aspects of this movie that were done extremely well.I would still recommend this movie, its a good popcorn muncher. I have heard that Warner Brothers is still planning a sequel but with a different director and wants the sequel to much darker than this film was. That could be a good thing, also could be a bad thing.. . but there hasn't been any movement on that front since Green Lantern came out on DVD. So who knows if the sequel will get made or not.
Now I see lots of hate for this movie and I can see why most of you guys do not like it. Nothing like the other big budget superhero films, this one of course didn't seem to do anything wrong not in my opinion. It was funny, inspiring and entertaining all I look for in a film. Hal Jordan seemed in character a little cocky, fun guy who learns to take some responsibility in his hands. Was his character perfect? No that of course is one of the reasons I loved him and was glad that they kept him mostly in character and Ryan's performance was really good. Carol Ferris was actually likable as usually I don't like her. The villains were good, nice to see them use parallax for a villain. He could've been better but keeping him from main focus was a nice touch. My few complaints were that I wish we got to see Green Lantern more like stopping bad guys such as thugs or bank robbers just for fun before moving to really big stuff. Though I get that he thought he wasn't worth being a green lantern. I think spending more time on his origin wasn't as fun to watch, which is why I was hoping for a sequel. Some characters could have been better other than that it was surprisingly good! My favorite parts are yes the suit I really liked it, nice touch to make it alien like. The visuals were pretty good. Plot was alright good enough for a superhero film. I have actually watched it three times now and don't get why so many people don't like it, it was really fun and had some nice emotional touches as in humans aren't perfect, but they are strong. Pretty good message for when I first watched it I was 11 and was expecting it to be trash when I re watched it. You can have your Batman and Avengers I'll sit here watching Green Lantern, and laughing. Really the jokes were quite good!
