In 2 parts:
The 23 errors and/or observations:

1. Missile explosion mistake
2. Parallax essence absorption rates vary way too much
3. Horrible prison design
4. Planetary absorption rates vary way too much
5. Inept military response
6. Evade detection by making a ruckus
7. Impossible plane trajectory
8. Ejection seat misinformation
9. Superhero cliche (observation)
10. Unique unknown equipment
11. Hal Jordan may have murdered 3 people
12. Mind trick fail
13. Construct concept is wrong
14. Helicopter errors
15. Space airplane errors
16. Lantern rings designed worse than cellphones
17. Spatial error
18. Gravity error
19. Guardians sacrificing innocents?
20. This Island Earth (observation)
21. Shallow Hal of low character
22. Unemployed Star Wars rejects find new work (observation)
23. Hal asks for permission to do what he was already doing

UPDATE: I give this movie a 5.5/10. Good special effects, but they could have chopped at least 30 minutes of boring filler footage from the movie. Easily. Plus the above technical errors.
