Thor and X-men: First Class achieved back-to-back superhero awesomeness (to much surprise), and DC’s own outlandish superhero origin story attempts to add another “-to-back” to this year’s quality comic book film season. Ryan Reynolds dons the ring adequately as cocky flyboy Hal Jordan and every minute on planet Oa is gloriously realised. Too bad we spend the majority of time on generic Earth watching generic relationships accompanied by generic Baywatch music. Still, there’s enough pleasing action scenes to tide most over, including a kick-ass finale. While I may not’ve been amazed by this first entry, I’m dying for a sequel.
WATCHABLE
