well at least this 'Green' franchise looked for a decent-looking male lead.
this movie features the 2nd Green Lantern from Earth (yeah, i did some reading on my own and realised that there are actually 4 Green Lanterns from Earth to boot), Hal Jordan. A playboy and flyboy by reputation, he seems to be intimidated by responsibility rather than any other more daunting things he has in his life to worry about. nevertheless, this story brings about the origins of him taking over the legacy from a dying purple alien Abin Sur. So, Hal (Ryan Reynolds) goes about exploring the responsibility-current lifestyle thing and finally decides to keep the ring and its power for good. Too bad the terms of his employment contract does not state clearly that he's to take on a giant alien lifeform - which even the most powerful and senior Green Lanterns are not able to handle as well - alone.
RPR: 7.5/10 - i've seen better comic-transited-to-big screen productions, but the story's of chewable size and i guess it could be enjoyed by everybody because it does not require extension powers of comprehension to understand it.
kind of like the part this DC comics superhero "parodies" in a way the term about responsibility versus the Tobey Maguire's Spiderman trilogy (not to forget Spidey's from Marvel).
