Green Lantern

We had such high hopes for this and we are sad to say that it's another epic fail for DC Comics & Warner Bros.  The last two comic book adaptations from DC have been really bad (Superman Returns & Jonah Hex).  We don't know if it's just bad screenwriting because the casting has actually been very good.  We are not going to bash DC because the comic books have great stories, and that should give some of these "A"-List screenwriters some idea on how to write the story.  Anyway the story took to long to explain itself especially for an orgins story.  The film was way over CGI'd it could have used a practical suit as opposed to a CGI'd one.  The weaponary, the Green Lantern Corps, understandable CGI but the suit way is too much and in 3D it's way too much on the eyes.  What makes this even worse it's not true 3D it's conversion. We have no problem with Ryan Reynolds but we have like too have seen him better as Deadpool to be honest.  Overall Green Lantern had potenial but it failed in it's execution.

Captain America-The First Avenger

Captain America is the latest in Marvel Studios comic book releases.  Captain America is actually well done, it has a nice story and great action.  The story follows the origins of Cap AKA Steve Rogers a scrawny kid from New York who becomes a great hero during WWII.  The writers did an awesome job the story it was easy to follow without making it too drawn out.  The origins of Cap got right to the point which is what a comic book movie should do.  Joe Johnston is to be commended for taking on the mantle in this latest release he did a wonderful job.  Chris Evans as Cap is awesome and he is totally believable in the role.  The director has some nice Avengers tie ins and if you are a comic book fan you shouldn't have a problem spotting the easter eggs.  Now we have to tell you as always stay after the credits because along with seeing the hard work put in by these folks Marvel Studios always gives us a tease for the next upcoming film and this time it's worth it.  Captain America-The First Avenger is definitely worth full price admission.
