I didn't hate it, but I felt kinda bored. The movie never seemed to get going. Maybe I'm too close to the source material, or maybe I'm too enamored with X-Men: First Class.
It wasn't a bad film. It wasn't a bad Green Lantern film. It just wasn't a GREAT movie. I'd rather see X-Men: First Class or Thor again before watching Green Lantern again.
There were certainly nerd moments for me when I was thrilled. Hearing Kilowog saying "Pozher", or seeing certain obscure Green Lanterns, etc. Still, those didn't wow me enough to make it a great movie.
I will say the Green Lantern mask on Hal looked absolutely terrible. I can't see how anyone in Hollywood allowed that mask to move forward.
