Green Lantern Reborn

I watched Green Lantern when it first came out and was definitely underwhelmed, it wasn't the worst movie but there were a lot of little things that added up that made the movie a one and done for me. SKYflix delivers a trimmed down and straight to the point movie that is how the original release should have been. Video and audio editing is executed perfectly and this edit is an overall improvement over the original.

Now this is a huge improvement on the original comercial release, SKYflix delivers a trimmed down, straight to the point GL movie that almost meets my expectations for one of my favorite comic book characters.

Thankfully all the dumbest and mopey Hal Jordan moments are gone, and while its unfortunate that its imposible to replace Ryan Reynolds with a better actor; his trademark "look at how a funny guy I am" moments are trimmed to a bare minimum.

The plot remains the same, not really in line with either the real GL origin or the Parallax arc; yet it is much more enjoyable with all the unnecessary and repetitive exposition.

I have to say I missed the final scene in which Sinestro forges his yellow ring.

Video and audio editing is seamless, sadly we have yet another 2.0 audio track; therefore points are deducted from A/V quality.

Overall a great improvement.

This is headcannon

In short - this edit rocked! This is so much a better version of the original and I thank SKYflix for it. I think some of the other reviews are a little too critical of what is only a comic book superhero character turned into a live action movie - it's not Gone With The Wind but this edit achieves everything I expect from a fun and action filled movie of this genre.

I have to admit, I did make a personal copy of this edit for myself with a slight variation, but I never would have been able to do that without this masterful edit.

If you're a DC universe fan you will love it, and I highly recommend this edit to resurrect what is a worthy character to the franchise. But if you're not a fan then don't watch it - quite simple really!

Thank you SKYflix! :]X
