I liked it quite a bit. More than I thought I would actually. It had some problems but at the same time it was a lot of fun. I appreciated that it had a good, old fashioned disaster to bring out the hero moment for GL's first public appearance. That was cool.
I am up for a sequel. And I appreciated the fact that they added a tag at the end of the credits to read the comics. Would have been nicer earlier in the credits but still.
