It was still entertaining, to say the least. I already had groups of people telling me that this film is awful before its release, so I ended up getting a little more than I expected. In this movie, John Stewart (voiced by Aldis Hodge, who will also play Hawkman in the upcoming Black Adam movie releasing in October) is a former marine with PTSD. This article contains spoilers for the upcoming Green Lantern: Beware My Power, now available on home video. Green Lantern: Beware My Power is a movie set in the same new universe started by Superman: Man of Tomorrow, and was continued in other films like Batman: The Long Halloween. I think the reason why I sort of liked this film was that I went into it not expecting much. Published Green Lantern: Beware My Power had an explosive ending filled with twists, murder and a heartbreaking sacrifice as John Stewart became a superhero. 7. However, Green Lantern isn't boring, just purely average. By the end of the film, I felt like I barely knew the characters, with just a likable performance by Ryan Reynolds. Heck, even the love interest felt underdeveloped. I also mentioned that the characters are underdeveloped, which goes a lot to Sinestro and that Parallax thing they are trying to fight. It's very vibrant and colorful (which is good), but it looked very cartoonish and took me out of the film. Also the CGI was all over the place, even on Reynold's outfit, and it's rather distracting. One minute he's talking to this kid (which never served much purpose to the film) and then all of a sudden he's walking and gets carried away in green light to that dying alien dude. Like the scene where Reynolds is chosen by the ring. The problem is that the whole movie felt disjointed, and not only did scenes felt random, but events turn random too. Unfortunately, the ring doesn't come with instructions - but it does come with baggage, like a horde of interplanetary killers. I also liked seeing Ryan Reynolds in the movie because he brings energy to what could otherwise be a boring movie, and I was enjoying both stories that were coming along. Recently discharged Marine sniper John Stewart is at a crossroads in his life, one which is only complicated by receiving an extraterrestrial ring which grants him the powers of the Green Lantern of Earth.

I must say that I was intrigued by the doctor subplot where he is not accepted by his father (Tim Robbins) and slowly goes insane until he turns into John Travolta from Battlefield: Earth. GREEN LANTERN: BEWARE MY POWER - Trailer Deutsch German (2022) Warner Bros. Not only that, but some doctor guy turns into an evil alien which, I guess, is controlled by Parallax, and Ryan has to stop him too. Reynolds discovers that he has a new ability, and that he is the earth's only hope, but he can't handle that until the end of the movie. So when their alien friend who's name I cannot remember falls to earth and dies, his ring is sent out to choose a new victim, and somehow it chooses Ryan Reynolds. Let me try to explain this movie: There is this elite group of Green Lanterns led by Sinestro (well played by Mark Strong) who are having a hard time beating this giant alien in the Milky Way called The Parallax. I was at least interested to see where the movie is going. I would say that during this movie, I had a hard time finding a bathroom break. Even though the movie seems to be everywhere in its storytelling, with characters being underdeveloped and random things just happening. I will go on record to say that it's at least enjoyable. Sure, there were plenty reincarnations of Batman and Superman, but where's Green Lantern? Someone out there listened to his plea, and the result is this. That way, John would already have a sequel set up in terms of juggling duty and a busy love life involving two of the galaxy's most badass warriors.I went to see Green Lantern because a friend of mine was boycotting DC for such a long time because there has been no release of a Green Lantern movie. Hawkgirl dropped them off, hitting on John before she left, so had Vixen been there, too, it'd have left John with a potential partner on Earth, and one eager to work with him when he comes to the stars. Ultimately, this would have left John in a pickle in the finale after they defeated Parallax and went home. A Vixen trying to give benefit of the doubt to Rann and a Shayera dedicated to Thanagar's war mission would have truly added spice to the story, giving John quite the headache in trying to stop them from killing each other. This would have added another person of color to balance out the white savior complex with Adam Strange, Ollie and Hal, plus it'd have organically built up the tension with two like-minded women. Green Lanter: Beware My Power was the perfect stage to remix this, pitting Vixen and Hawkgirl as total enemies rather than colleagues who had to be civil.
