Lanterns review – Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre’s alien-hunting superhero caper is a bust
Sure, itâs got evil extraterrestrials trying to detonate whole towns ⦠but not even the almighty Green Lantern and his mesmerising protege can save this show from feeling a whole lot of meh
It is my personal belief that you are starting off on the back foot whenever youâre given a superhero who draws their powers from an extrinsic item. Captain America is nothing without his shield. Elon Musk could build a metal suit and proto-heart and become Iron Man, which tells you everything you need to know about the problem. And, most pertinently, as weâre about to discuss the latest iteration of the Green Lantern legend, thereâs the Green Lantern and his big green ring. It grants the wearer mighty powers but periodically needs recharging from a big green power pack. Plus, Green Lanterns themselves are ultimately employees of Green Lantern Corps, a cosmic law enforcement agency run by the Guardians. They are a race of immortals who live on the planet Oa, but by that point thereâs a lot of meh to cut your way through.

I’m not really into traumatic superhero stories, but Lanterns had me in its grip
Superheroes and mortals alike return to the same question in HBO Max’s gritty, psychological take on DC’s Green Lantern franchise: “Are you afraid?”
The three words become a mantra for John Stewart (Aaron Pierre, Rebel Ridge; The Morning Show), a Lantern-in-training assigned to follow around Earth’s long-standing Lantern, Hal Jordan (Kyle Chandler, Friday Night Lights). Together, they investigate a strange shooting in Nevada with suspected intergalactic links.
Without mental resolve, these intergalactic law officers can’t use their weapons – a magical emerald green ring that lets them fly and create objects, force fields and more out of sheer mind power. But fear itself is the powering force of Lanterns, a show that examines how it is used to justify acts of love, war and hatred across interpersonal relationships and intergalactic colonialism alike.
