I've read some of the other user reviews and I find a lot of them laughable. Was this a great movie? No. Was it a bad movie? No, of course not. I went into Green Lantern the same way I would go into - oh I don't know - a "Hangover" movie. You pretty much know what you're going to get. I suppose, however, that most of the same critic wannabes I had the displeasure of reading will probably go into the "Smurfs" movie with their quippy lines and well thought out rants already typed up and ready to send. It's easier to jump on the band wagon, than it is to be honest I guess.
Personally, I thought Green Lantern was fairly good. Now, I should preface that with the fact that I already knew a bit about the ring wearing superhero before going in. That doesn't mean, however, that I wouldn't have been entertained otherwise. In fact, I thought the movie was entertaining. Granted, it seemed rushed (and it was), but I left the movie theater feeling neither giddy nor disappointed. I jut wanted more. I wish there was more. More action, more fighting, more build up. Just...more.
To those of you bashing the special effects or the storyline...you obviously don't know much about Green Lantern. And that's fine. This movie obviously isn't for you. Have fun watching the "Smurfs".
