rumer was when this movie and the a team were about to be made ryan reynolds and bradly cooper were both up for the parts of hal jordan ,face ,tho thay both played there parts well but i cant help but think both movies would have been a little better if it had gone the other way ,reynolds is face(as anyone whos seen van wilder knows)and i think cooper would have suited this movie better.

This one just gets better the more times i watch it. first time, i was like... meh... then just grew to love it to the point i'll watch it at least twice or thrice a year. Blake Lively................ is a straight-up knockout here!!! Holy *************!!! Doesn't hurt that she doesn't do too bad a job in it either. As a few people have pointed out below, RR is... just utterly Hal Jordan. impertinent, rash, arrogant, self-assured, sarcastic etc so he's great here too (especially in tandem with BL). in fact, the casting is entirely decent throughout. the only thing that irks me... is his costume... and especially his mask........ GRRRR!!! Its an ALMOST typical superhero movie but there's something about it that gives it a... distinctive... edge.

Great movie. I loved the story, Ryan Reynolds and the views. He's the kind of guy for this role, seems fearless and arrogant but sensible, as a hero should be.
Thank you for bringing it to us.

I absolutely loved him in 9's. It was strangely unique, just how I love my movies. I have a huge man crush on Ryan Reynolds anyway so I try to watch everything he is in lol! Thank you Solar for posting a section just for him ;)

I agree with everything you said Just. I've come to expect the first movie about a super hero to be full of uninteresting blather lol. I guess because I didn't see an hd copy of the movie when it first came out (Thank you Solar!) I didn't notice all the digital flaws. I too have seen it about three times, but now that I have a 42"LCD HD TV BLu-Ray capable tv, I might just have to check out these little CGI bugs! Thanks for post and I'll be readying my popcorn for a second like yourself if it comes out!

This movie had a lot of noticeable flaws. The suit's CGI and Paralex looking like poo were major ones. The movie also had a lot of plot points. You can cut this movie up at about 3 plot points and give them to 3 different directors to make full length movies. To reviewers that's really bad. As a comic book fan I can see why this may have happened. The Green Lantern universe is kinda large and not really set in stone like Batman. So he needed to explain a lot. But if they make another movie it would be SOOOOO much better because they've got the introductory stuff out the way. To a person that's just read Green Lantern and trying to make it realistic for the screen would be hard. But media BS aside, I kinda liked this movie, I've watched it about three times so it's not that bad.

Not sure why the media is saying this was a bad movie. I thought it was just fine and I'd certainly watch the 2nd one if made.
