3.5/5
Dense with fun action and cosmic lore, the film is unapologetically intended for fans of the source material, though it struggles as an effective origin tale. Go to Full Review

3/4
Green Lantern: First Flight does more in a little over an hour than most live-action comic-book adaptations could do with bloated running times and million-dollar salaries. Go to Full Review
Ryan Cracknell Movie Views Aug 15, 2009
More interested in the villain than the hero, First Flight is a bland look at one of the sides of the DC universe that's normally much more interesting. Go to Full Review

3/4
A literally colorful action-adventure plot...[but] fails to replicate the success of February's Wonder Woman at making its leading character not just kick-ass but fascinating. [Blu-ray] Go to Full Review

3/4
Superhero tales are best when they strive for some complexity; this one has an engrossing plot and some solid character development that grown-ups can appreciate. Go to Full Review

Abraham S Mar 10, 2019 I think I watched this 3 times and only 2 of them with my son. As I recall it was truly outstanding and I loved it. Much, MUCH better than the live action failure with Ryan Reynolds that came later. I would have loved to see this in theaters and would see a live action version of the would do one. See more
Poe P Feb 18, 2019 It's a great re-telling of Hal Jordan's story, but I would of liked to see more of his universe and Jordan's personality, questioning more about what he does and "what are the Guardians where did they come from?" so downgrading because of a couple issues with the story but it's so much better than the CGI version.

Rey S Nov 2, 2018 Awesome and My favorite Green lantern Hal Jordan
Anakin R Jun 7, 2017 Imagine if the live-action GL was not terrible... that is this movie.
Anakin M May 23, 2017 Pretty tame compared to DC's other animated films, It's the origin story of Green Lantern but tends to focus more on the villain than anything, The action was fun but the predictable setup was a bore but my kids liked it so as you can guess this one is for the younger audience.

Rey W May 22, 2017 First Flight es un origen mas a la leyenda de Hal Jordan, en el cual se pueden ver las motivaciones del personaje por superar sus mas profundos miedos y encaminarse al deber de ser un Green Lantern. Una película totalmente recomendada para iniciar en la historia del personaje. See more
