WEBVTT - Lanterns

0:00:00.170 --> 0:00:02.290
<v Speaker 1>Welcome, this is Now Streaming with Jordan. Take the ring.

0:00:02.830 --> 0:00:08.600
<v Speaker 1>You fly. Just fly. I'm sorry. Fly, please. It's based

0:00:08.660 --> 0:00:11.480
<v Speaker 1>on the DC comic series The Green Lantern, but don't

0:00:11.500 --> 0:00:14.620
<v Speaker 1>get lanterns mixed up with the Ryan Reynolds movie flop

0:00:14.660 --> 0:00:17.110
<v Speaker 1>of several years ago. Lantern takes a look at the

0:00:17.180 --> 0:00:21.090
<v Speaker 1>original legend, former fighter pilot and intergalactic police officer, whose

0:00:21.130 --> 0:00:23.489
<v Speaker 1>job it is to train a new recruit, John Stewart,

0:00:23.650 --> 0:00:26.470
<v Speaker 1>to ultimately take the ring and become a Green Lantern.

0:00:26.590 --> 0:00:29.970
<v Speaker 1>Kyle Chandler, who's so watchable, stars as Hal Jordan, a

0:00:30.030 --> 0:00:33.870
<v Speaker 1>bit of a washed-up, wisecracking, and hard-drinking superhero, and the

0:00:33.909 --> 0:00:37.490
<v Speaker 1>wonderful Aaron Pierre as John Stewart, whose parents have built

0:00:37.530 --> 0:00:40.589
<v Speaker 1>their life around seeing their son be part of those

0:00:40.650 --> 0:00:44.050
<v Speaker 1>who protect the galaxy. A decent mystery about aliens invading

0:00:44.090 --> 0:00:46.220
<v Speaker 1>a small town and what the meaning of a hero

0:00:46.320 --> 0:00:49.420
<v Speaker 1>really is, with a fine chemistry between Kyle Chandler and

0:00:49.460 --> 0:00:53.600
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Pierre. Less superhero action, more story and character. Lanterns

0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:57.010
<v Speaker 1>on HBO. And that's now streaming with Jordan WBZ, Boston's

0:00:57.050 --> 0:00:57.560
<v Speaker 1>News Radio.
