Green Hornet



The Green Hornet is just a giant fail of a movie all together. There's really nothing noteworthy here at all.

First off, a big problem I have with it was the length. It lasts for about 2 hours and feels like it lasts about an entire day. Seriously, dying and being brought back to life would feel short and brief compared to one viewing of The Green Hornet. I have rarely seen a superhero movie that can't be packaged into a nice 90 minute length, and TGH is certainly not an exception to my belief about superhero movies.

TGH also seems to have no point to it at all. As a comedy, it just falls down the stairs all together.There's really nothing humorous about any of their situations, and the writing feels like it was created by someone who just entered middle school. Seth Rogen just totally hams it up and the result just proves that less is more, in every case. The whole movie is just a juvenile and lame attempt at providing hip humor on screen for those who gobble up frat boy humor like it belongs at Thanksgiving.

The action scenes are tedious and mind numbing as well. They go on for way too long and once you've seen one fighting scene in TGH, you've seen them all. At about an hour length, I asked "Has anything even happened yet??". Nothing happens in TGH. People talk and fight but there's no real reason or joy involved in it. It's just a movie that was made for the soul purpose of making a movie that would earn a pretty fair amount at the box office. The Green Hornet is overlong, unfunny, tedious, and worthless. Save your $10 and a mind numbing trip into movie wasteland and just avoid this at all costs. This will easily go down as one of the worst movies of 2011 for me.
