We get the Jetsons on some sort of steroids here, but it was a sleeper films with inferior acting skills.
Ryan Reynolds was unfortunately funny in the film. He was in standard form, but not quite what was expected in the role. As with most the film and acting roles, Reynolds was computer generated much of the time. The CGI made the film relatively impersonal. Viewers have to have the ability to imagine and create the story as they watch. The tacky soundtrack and climactic episodes accompanying the notes were not making the two hours any easier to sit through.
Comic book readers may want more, non readers may not care. The film, unfortunately, misses two huge categories of viewers...those listed previously. At this point all we can do is cross our fingers that the studio delivers on the promise of greatness with Captain America. At least we have X-Men: First Class and Super 8 to take care of our sci-fi fantasies for the time being.
Green Lantern delivered less than hoped for, but still gave something a few people can enjoy. It will pull an unworthy 2 out of 5 Cyclones.
