Review of The Green Hornet (2011) by Melanie C — 09 Apr 2017

Lackluster, juevenile, and very forgettable. I wanted this to do justice to Bruce Lee and his amazimg skills and talent but I should have known when a pop singer was chosen to play Kato that it was destined to let me down.

Cristoph Waltz usually excels at playimg a devious sort but he is relegated to playing a dimwitted street thug and he does not pull it off at all. Seth Rogen is his usual comedic self but is more like a toned down moral version of his character Randy from The League which one doesnt need to see.

His comedy is fine but nothing great and his lack of taking the film seriously shows and it feels like the director and or writer followed suit and stopped caring. the car was somewhat cool and the biggest asset but it couldnt save the weak writing and flat jokes.

Its an alright afternoon watch but there is ao many better rogen films to enjoy than this one.
