The Green Hornet Review~5 Stars

The Green Lantern, thus far is the best movie of 2011 so far. I just saw it last week and it was worth every penny. After seeing this movie i felt full and satisfied. On my initial sighting of the trailer, back in November, the earliest, i thought it was a low budget movie and not worth seeing. Usually a low budget movie, as i see it, has trailers only a couple months before it actually comes out. for this movie, there was no hype, no merchandising, nothing! I have to say though, that hot Asian man, Kato, that can do just about everything, from making a mean cup of gourmet coffee to kicking the bad guys butt, was a definite reason for me to see the movie. The ambiance of the theater was lacking in fact, with a bountiful amount of seating. Which was odd because i want to see the movie on opening night. the theater was full of families and old people which isn't what you usually get when it comes to a superhero movie with a legend. I mean you have to remember, The Green Hornet, is quite old, starting out as a radio show. Hmmm, maybe all the people that remember it are already dead. But anyway, there should've been a WAY better turn out then what there was. This movie was truly a trip of hilarity, interest, and what every good story needs, an awesome climax, conflict, turn of events, and conclusion.


Britt, the main character, a rich kid of a douche bag of a father who owns a family owned Newspaper, some how loses his father to a bee sting, of which he is allergic to. Britt is not Business minded and rather party all night and bring girls to the mansion and show them his fathers pimped out auto mobiles, and sleep till his heart desires. But do to the death of his fathers, which hardly moves him, he rather let the newspaper go to his father's best advisor rather than taking up the family business. The next morning after his father's funeral, after false friends try their hand at comforting him, Britt wakes up to a bad cup of coffee that was served to him by a novice maid. Angered to degree of vehemence, he rushes into the foyer demanded the person who makes his coffee, which is usually gourmet and garnished with a foamy leaf. He finds the person whom he fired, who turns out to be Kato, a highly intelligent Asian man with masterful martial arts skills. The devise a "great" plan to get back at Britt's dead father and turn out saving a couple from some robbers on the same street they are on. This scene showcases Kato's amazing skill to slow down time in his mind and imagine where every moving person is so he can thoroughly kick butt. It seems totally unreal but after all it was made for 3D, and if i had seen it in 3D it would have been even more epic. None the less, it was quite amazing. throughout the story it isn't hard to realize that Kato's the one that really stands out from Britt's controlling selfish attitude. Britt never plays much of a part in their "heroing" but in the movie throughout, he absolutely is the main character. Britt keeps the laughter going and both flawlessly and smoothly intertwines the laid back humor in a sequence where i almost to much to bare. TOTALLY worth the the WATCH!!!!!!
