My Comment:
It's not as bad as people say. But yes, I would say this movie is so typical and predictable. The Green Lantern appearance was not as much as i wanted and I need more of the actions. However, I would let it pass since it's the birth of Green Lantern that the movie told me more about the drama not the actions. What I like about this movie is that the effect is great, I love the Green Lantern outfit and love the appearance of the Parallax, gave me the shiver. And most of all, Ryan Reynolds is the best choice for this movie.
