I have yet to see GL so I am still keeping hopes up until I see it myself…but Iron Man was less about the story and more about the perfect casting job they did for Stark and Potts.
I don't think GL could say the same thing about Hal and Ferris. Obviously, I don't know since I haven't seen it yet.
Reynolds as Hal wasn't actually so bad. Toward the beginning of the movie he's doing his usual smartass shtick, but he kinda changes as the movie progresses. There's also a funny line of dialogue about why the ring chose such a douchebag as the next lantern.
Lively as Carol is a different story. While she wasn't necessarily BAD, she wasn't very good either. Just kinda filler. That may have had something to do with the material they were working with, though. The story and characters could have definitely used some work.
Sarsgaard as Hector Hammond was great. I've heard many people ragging on his performance, but I thought he gave the character a creepy, sleazy kind of vibe. He was no Ledger as the Joker, but more of a creepo that you wouldn't want your kids around…
