Overview: In this thrilling new DC Universe Movie, Earth’s latest Green Lantern will rise!

When a Power Ring is bestowed upon former Marine John Stewart, it leads him on a life-changing mission. With Justice League member Green Arrow and Thanagarian Hawkgirl by his side, Stewart is thrown into a complicated galactic war with shocking origins and catastrophic consequences.

It’s a trial by fire for the inexperienced Lantern as he battles deadly enemies like Sinestro – but a much darker secret will be the true test of this Green Lantern’s strength!

4K Blu-ray Verdict: Warner Bros. is expanding their 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray catalog offerings this month with the release of the highly-anticipated Green Lantern: Beware My Power in the expansive 4K Ultra HD video format this July 26th, 2022.

For my money, this Green Lantern: Beware My Power [4K Ultra HD + Digital] combo pack sharpness takes a fairly large step forward from others in their 4K Ultra HD catalog and even comes with HDR (High Dynamic Range) for the complete 4K Ultra HD experience, of course.

So, what we have is Green Lantern: Beware My Power presented to us as a two-disc combo pack with a sheet for a Digital HD Copy. Other stand out points you should know are: Codec: HEVC / H.265, Resolution: Upscaled 4K (2160p), HDR: HDR10, Aspect ratio: 1.78:1 and Original aspect ratio: 1.78:1.

Featuring Dolby Vision and HDR10 for brighter, deeper, and way more lifelike colors, as with most all 4K UHDs, everything that we watch features these qualities - but somehow, this film gloriously shines within them all.

Noticeably crisp with the overall clarity receiving an obvious boost here on this release, what is more is that it is enjoyably noticeable.

For as well as some new nuances to the somewhat drab palette courtesy of Dolby Vision we also get to witness sudden bright pops of color along with the Audio of English: DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 and Subtitles in English SDH.

Laying out the synopsis, recently discharged Marine sniper John Stewart is at a crossroads in his life, one which is only complicated by receiving an extraterrestrial ring which grants him the powers of the Green Lantern of Earth.

Unfortunately, the ring doesn’t come with instructions – but it does come with baggage, like a horde of interplanetary killers bent on eliminating every Green Lantern in the universe.

Now, with the aid of the light-hearted Green Arrow, Adam Strange and Hawkgirl, this reluctant soldier must journey into the heart of a galactic Rann/Thanagar war and somehow succeed where all other Green Lanterns have failed.

To my mind, director Jeff Wamester could have easily made this new saga into a rather gripping, emotional, and exhilarating origin story of Jon Stewart as the Green Lantern, but instead, he presents us with a something completely different.

That’s not to say that he has created a boring, shallow, one-dimensional movie, no, not in the slightest, but as gorgeously animated and expertly vocalized as it truly is, it would have been nice to get an origin movie based on the iconic character; in my humble opinion.

Anyway, moving swiftly along and the movie free flows nicely, and even when Hawkgirl shows up it doesn’t flinch (if you know about Hawkgirl, you will understand that sentence; if you don’t, well, check her out and don’t bother getting back to me!).

OK, sure, along the way we get some questionable subplots thrown in for some reason and the story line falters a little due to them, making the initially simplistic story into something far more complex than it needed to be, but it gets back on the tracks soon thereafter.

Complete with genuine moments where the movie actually soars and becomes exciting (such as the third act), these moments are what makes the action sequences as good as they could ever have hoped to be.

In conclusion, Aldis Hodge is simply wonderful, absolutely perfect as the voice of the titular superhero, as is Jimmi Simpson as the wise-cracking Green Arrow. Brian Bloom gives a menacing performance as Adam Strange, and Jamie Gray Hyder perfectly embodies the character of Hawkgirl (no matter if you like her or not!).
