Green Lantern is based on the comic books and stars Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively. Blake Lively surprised me with her more serious role as a business woman and pilot. Reynolds played an immature pilot who was chosen by a dying alien to take over his role as a Green Lantern, or a protector of the universe. Tim Robbins also made an appearance as a senator in the film. The world was threatened by fear, the most powerful enemy in the universe, but the Green Lantern fought fear with his imagination. The film was fun and I enjoyed seeing Ryan Reynolds play a superhero, but the film wasn't as good as it could have been. It was a slight let down, but it held my attention through most of the story.
This film gets 3 ½ out of 5 stars. It was entertaining, but after all the hype, it was a bit of a letdown.
