Green Lantern

Louilink editorial rating: 6.7/10. This score reflects the film’s position in the existing DC Extended Universe ranking.

Test pilot Hal Jordan receives a power ring and is recruited into an intergalactic peacekeeping corps, confronting both cosmic danger and his own self-doubt.

Performances and Direction

Reynolds brings charm and Strong gives Sinestro welcome gravitas, but the artificial-looking costume effects, uneven humor, and underwritten villain weaken the cosmic premise. The film predates the DCEU and is not officially part of its continuity.

The Final Verdict

A missed opportunity for a richly imaginative space adventure, with occasional flashes of the larger mythology it might have explored.
