Green Lantern: Beware My Power Movie Review by Ryan Balkwill

Genre: Animated, Action, Adventure

Directed by Jeff Wamester

Writers by Ernie Aitbacker, John Semper

Based on Green Lantern by Dennis O’Neil, Neal Adams

Voice by Aldis Hodge, Jimmi Simpson, Nolan North, Brian Bloom, Jamie Gray Hyder, Keesha Sharp, Ike Amadi, Rick D. Wasserman and Sunil Malhotra.

Plot: When a Power Ring is bestowed upon former Marine John Stewart, it leads him on a life-changing mission. With Justice League member Green Arrow and Thanagarian Hawkgirl by his side, Stewart is thrown into a complicated galactic war.

Green Lantern: Beware My Power Movie was good.

Pros: This film did a very good job introducing John Stewart to a new audience. They kept the same animated style from the previous Movies. How both Green Arrow, Hawkgirl and Adam Strange managed to add a lot to this film without over shadowing the main character. The action scenes were well animated and I was surprised how they pulled the twist off. (Spoiler Alert). I’m was impress how it made this new Green Lantern movie more enjoyable than the Ryan Reynolds version.

Cons: I didn’t like how they kill off Sinestro in the way they did or the usage of blood in this film and there wasn’t any post-credits scene to set up for the next movie. Too bad everyone can’t see this film in cinemas.
