This film is better than MOS, BvS & Suicide Squad


This film is better than MOS, BvS & Suicide Squad
The quality of the Warner Brother films have not been that good since 2013.
The one thing that hurt this movie is that WB Studios over spent on the budget for the film on the cgi to balloon the budget to $200 million

Warner Bros./DC getting it wrong since 1992

I know the DCEU has issues, but it's better than this.

One thing that you can definitely say about the Disney fanboys - their obsessiveness is all consuming, to the point that it becomes their identity.

I'd like to bring up something different:

Man of Steel was a complete film.

Green Lantern had heavy/messed up studio involvement during production.

BvS had a lot chopped up for the theatrical release.

Suicide Squad had a (reportedly) THREE different versions of the film.



WB (should) have realized that their studio involvement has not been helping their movies.



Well, I've got news for you pal, you ain't leadin' but two things: Jack and sh*t and Jack left town

i re-watches this again recently... Its not as bad now... Comparing it to Suicide Squad... Its more coherent, logical etc.
The Planet Oa scenes were cringey though... The rest were decent.


A few tweaks and this film could of been more than passable. Mainly with the screen play etc.

The actual movie isn't bad, it's the over reliance on CGI that ruined it. Obviously you wouldn't be able to make a movie like this without it, and they could have used practical effects with things like his suit and even scenes on Oa, because good CGI shouldn't be so obvious

But it's definitely better and more true to the comic than either Man of Steel or Batman vs Superman

I just wanted to make a post here saying i watched this movie recently, and its nowhere near as bad as these movies. But since you already made a topic, im just here to agree with you :).

This movie is fine compared to the terrible movies of the DCEU.

Good to see I'm not alone. It seems to be a growing awareness. Everyone was way to quick to write off GL. It was a pretty solid movie give or take a few weird moments.

Yup. GL is a DC U proper. The others are just bad, so bad I refuse to watch them.

I liked it. I like MoS and BvS more but I really enjoyed those (for all the faults). GL gets a 7/10
