Green Lantern Reborn

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

I think that we all agree that the original movie is really bad, the character isn't brought to life like it should and the most sad thing is they didn't exploit the Green Lantern Corps, but those are some other topics for another time, the truth is that this edit is really really good, it takes a bad movie and makes it enjoyable, it cant do miracles to the character and wat we all expected form this movie but in a narrative sense it does make a miracle, it makes the Green Lantern movie enjoyable. The transitions are really good, I really enjoyed that it trimmed the repetitions of the dead father (kudos on this). The overall quality is very good, congratulations on making this enjoyable.

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
