While flawed, this is a stylish, fun blockbuster

"We've been completely wasting our potential. This city needs our help. We could be heroes! We will pose as villains to get close to the bad guys. That way, no one will suspect we're really the good guys."

The origins of The Green Hornet date back to 1930s radio serials created by George W. Trendle. The Lone Ranger was another Trendle creation, and with the Green Hornet he aimed to ... read more

The Green Hornet. I expected it not to be amazing, nor awesome, but a good to decent watch. It opened up really nicely with James Franco and Christoph Waltz, who were both hilarious in James Franco's only scene. I was sitting there thinking "maybe this won't be so bad", well guess again. The movie ended up being terrible. The drama they were trying to put between the two main characters was absolu... read more

"Ouch. This movie didn't start off too bad, but as it dragged on Rogen became more and more unlikable and the editing in this killed any chance of Michel Gondry making an interesting superhero-type movie."

" Date: 3/17/2020 Viewed: Starz Re-Watch Note: I decided to rewatch this movie because it was on Starz and I haven't seen it since it came out in theaters. Not to mention, I was bored with nothing else to do. My opinion is still the same back in 2011. I thought the movie was meh back then and I still think it's meh now. The movie has pretty good special effects, but Seth Rogen was not the best choice for the Green Hornet. Seth Rogen is playing the same character that he always plays in dozens"

"First viewing - Sept. 15th I'd really wanted to see The Green Hornet when it was in theatres mainly due to my devotion to Michel Gondry, and that's what fueled my interest to finally watch it on this particular night. Fortunately it's been so long since I saw or read anything about it, so I walked into it with no real expectations beyond what I know of previous Green Hornet adaptations and the handful of names I knew were involved in this one. And evidently I'm in the minority for enjoying this"
