That green guy..........Ryan Reynolds in The Green Lantern
The history of the The Green Lantern film adaption began in December 2008 when the film was about to go into pre-production, however the desired director, Greg Berlanti pulled out. Luckily two months later, Martin Campbell, who directed 2006's Casino Royale, stepped into his shoes and so the long journey of putting a 1940 comic book onto the big screen began. With Bradley Cooper, Jared Leto, Justin Timberlake and Ryan Reynolds as the top options to play The Green Lantern himself. Finally Reynolds was picked and so filming began. The first thing that most people will think when they leave a cinema after viewing this film, is the speed of it. There are times, especially the romantic ones where everything goes at 1 mile an hour and your checking your watch every five minutes and then there are times, like the action ones where, you barely have to blink then thats the scene over. Ryan Reynolds plays Hal Jordan, a fearless test pilot who is chosen by a magical ring to be a Green Lantern, (intergalactic policeman) and defeat an evil entity known as Parallax. With Peter Sarsgaard as the Elephant Man-lookalike secondary villain, Dr. Hector Hammond, and Blake Lively as Ryan Reynold's love interest. This film is another air-head superhero 3D extravaganza.
