The Green Hornet (2011) 7/10

Starring : Seth Rogen, Jay Chou, Cameron Diaz, Tom Wilkinson, Christoph Waltz
Director : Michel Gondry
Running Time : 115 mins

Millionaire playboy and publisher of the Los Angeles newspaper “The Daily Sentinel” Britt Reid (Rogen) finds his life completely changed when he and his kung-fu fighting chauffeur Kato (Chou) stop a robbery. Together they decide to take on a new life as crime fighters, with Reid adopting the nom de plume The Green Hornet.

This tongue in cheek spoof is actually really enjoyable. Rogan’s slightly pathetic playboy wannabe hero is fun to watch, and Chou’s plays the true brains AND brawn of the operation with laid back appeal. Fans of movies like Kick-Ass and Super will really enjoy this more child-friendly addition to the super hero movie.
