And I think that is mainly due to a miscasting and frankly a miswriting of the main character..
This actor is a good actor for a comedic lead, but Jordan was never the character this actor tends to play. It seems like its an instance of writers writing the role with a particular actor in mind for it, rather than relying on the source material, and then finding an actor better suited for the material.

I think you’re right; one of the videos/articles I was reading on Reynolds as Hal Jordan said that he’s be a better fit for the Flash, and I think he’s right. From the small bits shown in the trailer Ryan Reynolds *would* be a better Flash.
However, Reynolds isn’t a *bad* actor and might be able to pull it off. Kinda like DeFoe as the Green Goblin, not my first pick but he did the role quite well, IMO. Sometimes actors don’t get to show-off their skill because they get too pigeon-holed into a certain type of character; most people think Robin Williams does comedy well but, and many will miss this, he is an excellent actor in serious films as well.
