Green Lantern: First Flight is an animated and lively origin story about the transformation of test pilot Hal Jordan into a member of an intergalactic society watching over the universe. Flying an experimental jet one day, Jordan (voiced by Law and Order: Special Victims Unit's Christopher Meloni) encounters a dying alien who is a Green Lantern protector of Earth's sector of the cosmos. The alien's ring, a repository of enormous power granted by a council of elders called the Guardians, zips onto Jordan's finger, but neither the Guardians nor other Green Lanterns are ready to accept him as an unproven member. Complicating things for Jordan is the fact that the Green Lantern tasked with mentoring him, Sinestro (Victor Garber), is plotting the destruction of the Guardians with the acquisition of "yellow power," the only force that makes the Lanterns' green power useless.
Jordan's resilience and willingness to throw himself in harm's way for the good of everyone gain respect, but his inevitable showdown with Sinestro is an epic fight. This PG-13 feature is a bit bloody, and there are a few swear words, but most of the violence arises from that familiar, shape-shifting light emanating from Jordan's ring. Happily, there is some of the old DC Comics wit in the way his Green Lantern ring shapes its beam into such imaginative weapons as a golf club and a flyswatter. A second DVD packed with special features includes background on Sinestro, a Justice League short, a featurette on the making of Green Lantern: First Flight, and, best of all, "Duck Dodgers: The Green Loontern." --Tom Keogh

Green Lantern: First Flight presents us the origin of Hal Jordan becoming Green Lantern. For those not well-versed in the comics history, the initial development is very much in line with the classic origin from the DC Comic many decades ago. A spaceship crashes on Earth with a dying alien on board. This alien commands his ring to find a worthy replacement. This worthy individual is test pilot Hal Jordan.
Jordan quickly finds himself caught up in cosmic-scale events, as the Green Lantern ... Read More

I was basically expecting a 90 minute episode of Justice League Unlimited when I saw this, but I was surprised to find both the animation and writing to be a step up from that tv show.
The movie follows a tale of corruption, betrayal and intrigue that begins with a brief origin story for Hal Jordan, and features a great deal of Sinestro, the classic fallen Lantern. The Green Lantern Corps are depicted to be reminiscent of the Jedi in the Star Wars Universe.

If you're an adult, you might not enjoy this. It might be alright for kids, though parents should be cautioned about the somewhat graphic violence, but I found my self bored and stupified. I'll get my fix for superhero cartoons from 'Venture Brothers' thank you very much.
The story does not resemble actual Green Lantern continuity, and this is what let me down the most. Not only is the original green lantern story much more interesting and dramatic, it's better crafted.. for a DC comic. ... Read More

I just finished watching "Sinestro: First Flight." Or was it "The Green Lantern Corps Movie?" It couldn't be called "Green Lantern: First Flight" because it was barely about Hal Jordan, Green Lantern. Could it? And yet, it was.
Anyway, as you might surmise, I was disappointed in this animated movie. I expected a better treatment of Hal Jordan, the person and the superhero. Instead, we got the life story of Sinestro and a story of battle involving the entire Green Lantern Corps. I feel ... Read More
