The Green Lantern (2011)

Its not easy being Green
Another comic book character cash cow.  This one is a real snooze fest.  Its not so much that it was predictable because to a certain extent all superhero movies are predictable.  Its not even that Ryan Reynolds was the absolute last person that should be playing Hal Jordan (much love to Ryan, star of the outstanding Buried).  I'm even a fan of Blake Lively, but the story was not interesting, the writing was poor and I didn't care about the characters.  And I feel asleep during the action sequences toward the end. 


The Green Lantern gets a very unheroic 2 out of 5 Poblanos!
