I saw it on Friday and really liked it. I really do not get where all the hate for this movie is coming from. It definitely has some pacing issues, but I think all origin stories made movies do.
My girlfriends family invited me to this today since her dad really wants to see it and I guess I'm gonna have to see it.
As someone who didn't see the second Iron Man, Transformers, Thor or either of the last two X-Men films I was getting pretty happy with my streak of not seeing shitty super hero derp derp movies in theaters. Oh well.

Agreed. They were true to the characters and story not to mention the setup for the following film(s). Anyone else catch John Stewart?
On imdb lolz. Hes in it but now i have to go see it again to see where. I think hes one of the bar fight guys. Oh well i was going to anyway.
It was half good half stupid time filling crap.
The direction it's heading though with Sinestro and the yellow ring could be awesome. Just no more crap with the chick.
BUT THE SAPPHIRE LANTERNS POWER COMES FROM HOPE
So, what's Sinestro's deal in the comics? I never really read Green Lantern.
Ex Green Lantern who taught Hal and then he got all into the Yellow energy stuff and now he's bad.
The movie did a perfect job with him, actually.
Sinestro was the corps best GL for a long time. Then he started getting a bit out there in his ideas. He felt the GL corps should control the universe through fear and use lethal force. He started ruling his home planet through, fear, intimidation and basically becoming a dictator. The guardians find out about it and strip him of his ring. So he goes out and has a yellow power ring made and comes back to destroy the corps.
