Its newest recruit, Hal Jordan (Ryan Reynolds), is the first human to join the ranks. The Green Lanterns have little regard for humans, who have thus far been unable to harness the powers of the ring each member wears. But Jordan, a gifted and cocky test pilot, may be the corps' only hope when a new enemy called Parallax threatens the universal balance of power.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Noisy, overproduced, and thinly written, Green Lantern squanders an impressive budget and decades of comics mythology.

Keith Uhlich Time Out Whenever this Lantern returns to terra firma (too often), its imaginative flights are ground down under the Warner overlords’ demographic-pandering heels. Rated: 2/5 Jan 22, 2024 Full Review Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express All the prancing about on a galaxy far far away where Hal [Ryan Reynolds] meets the other Green Lanterns, and the wise ancients, and a gigantic gruff sergeant-type who learns him his ropes is all a bit of a bore. Rated: 2.5/5 Apr 2, 2019 Full Review Candice Frederick Reel Talk Online Green Lantern is not a perfect movie, but it's fun to watch. Rated: B- Sep 8, 2017 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Overcoming a personal tragedy, defeating various villains, and discovering his powers with a trendy soundtrack to guide his way, Reynolds’ Hal Jordan is plain as can be, even offensive in an age where this genre has elevated itself with dynamic films... Rated: 1.5/4 Mar 29, 2023 Full Review Cory Woodroof Lumination Network Here's something green that I would not want to touch with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole. No, I'm not talking about Mr. Grinch. I'm talking about the Green Lantern. Feb 11, 2022 Full Review James Croot Stuff.co.nz Worth only watching now for seeing how to kill a superhero franchise from the very beginning. Rated: 2.5/5 Nov 30, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Tony I love the GL, this was an ok film. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/15/22 Full Review Andreas H The movie isn't bad but there wasn't that many good action scenes I love ryan reynolds for green lantern he plays the role perfectly 👌 and the costume I love the glow the only thing I want more off in this movie is better fight scenes but I will always be a Green Lantern Fan Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/27/24 Full Review Derek L Green Lantern seemingly relied a lot of special effects which sadly does not quite transit much within the film with an underwhelming plot and characters that were paper-thin. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/10/24 Full Review Hot C I don't understand the hate this movie gets. Is it because he punched Parallax into the sun? IDK. It sure beats the tar out of anything in Marvel phase 4. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/27/24 Full Review David C Está chafa la historia y muy mala Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/11/24 Full Review Mason S Don't know why everyone hates on this movie. It's an enjoyable watch Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/07/24 Full Review Read all reviews
