I didn't expect to see any name actors but Kelly McGillis and the throaty guy from Generation Kill made an appearance.
The acting was better than I expected - the script was a little clunky at times but I got over it.
Yeah...very decent indeed, even most of the times it didn't feel like a low budget effort.

Ryan Reynolds was his usual self but needed some support from his fellow cast. Blake Lively looked gorgeous and that was about it.

Highlight of the film - the Abin Sur scene and Sinestro.

Though I have to wait for the dvd release (or I hope I can catch it on the theaters next month as my friends here are planning to have a little trip to Kolkata by then and we've already even bought the plane tickets:)) but still I think there are more suitable actor(s) to play the role of Hal Jordan than Ryan Reynolds...even every time I sees those posters it's kinda looks like Hrithik Roshan is on GL suit! Grrrr!
