Green Lantern
For centuries, a small but powerful force of warriors called the Green Lantern Corps has sworn to keep intergalactic order. Each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of the first human ever recruited.
Critics Sentiment
Hal transported to Oa and meets the Green Lantern Corps
Parallax arrives and wreaks havoc on Coast City
The film drops significantly from the visually impressive Oa sequences to the poorly designed Parallax climax, losing 2.6 points as the villain's comical appearance undermined the final act.
Green Lantern starts promisingly with impressive visuals of Oa and the Corps, but steadily declines as plot coherence breaks down and characters remain underdeveloped. The film reaches its lowest point with the laughably designed Parallax villain, though it recovers slightly for the resolution with some creative problem-solving.
