Green Lantern: Beware My Power Review: An Overly Complex Plot Hinders Heroics

Aldis Hodge voices John Stewart in an overly complex DC Universe animated adventure. Green Lantern: Beware My Power dives deep into the mythology of two core Justice League characters. We learn what happens to Hal Jordan (Jimmi Simpson), viewed as the greatest Green Lantern, and why the Guardians chose another to wield his Power Ring. There's a lot going on here to a fault. A mystery drives the primary narrative of a galactic war with devastating consequences. Themes of betrayal, unhinged ambition, xenophobia, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) muddy the superhero waters. Competent animation and action scenes moderate the pacing. The film just needed a leaner, less detailed plot to keep your attention focused.
