Green Hornet (2010)



Well i was as surprised as anyone that I actually saw this movie. Then i was secondly surprised that it was actually good. The trailers really made it look shitty, and i figured if i ever got around to watching it that it would be thru Netflix or cable or something. But i wound up going to it and IMAX 3-d as well. Well 17.50$ later i was sitting down in my chair grumbling to my girl about how we didn't go see TRON2 in IMAX but we were seeing Green Hornet? Well anyways this movie was fun, fast paced and actually funny. Kato did a great job and as with the old tv show pretty much stole the show. I don't think this surprised anyone. Seth Rogan was good, and Christopher waltz and Bloodnofski was pretty freaking hilarious as was a cameo by James Frano. Green Hornet has some great action, cool cars, (anyone notice that when Rogan and the random chick were making out in all the cars they skipped the Buggati ?) cool motorcycles, cool scary guns ;). Here's my gripe though. i am starting to really understand the 3d backlash. i enjoyed it but i would have enjoyed it just as much w/o 3d and an extra 5 bucks back in my pocket. i didn't think it really added anything to the movie at all. Overall i would give it 3 hot sauce packets. i think i might try doing this again. In reading past one's i have missed it. Next up is winters bone, kings speech, maybe something else.
