You guys. YOU GUYS. The Green Hornet was AWESOME. I mean! Seth Rogen! He is a ruiner of things! But he didn't ruin this, it was too awesome. Probably because of the amazingness that is Jay Chou (the imdb says it was John Cho, what the hell, that is incorrect).

Is Seth Rogen Britt Ried an overgrown child with manpain, daddy issues, and a serious entitlement problem? Sure is! But Kato does not put up with that shit, what do you think he is, a fucking sidekick? No! He is the brains, muscle, and good looks on the team and the movie admits it. Britt is there to pay for shit and have a huge crush.

The movie is also incredibly gay. Not that Britt deserves Kato.

And Lenore! Played by Cameron Diaz and her fantastic smile! I don't want to spoil too much, but she's awesome and more than a love interest and neither of the boys deserve her (though I wouldn't say no to Lenore/Kato). I just wish she'd had more screen time. Maybe in the next one. I hope there's a next one.

Basically I spent most of the movie expecting it to fail and it didn't (it wasn't perfect but omg, I'm in no place to analyze). Instead there was fighting and shit exploding and sweet cars and hijinks and masks and kickin' outfits. I am over the moon.

No, I love that kind of thing! I just hate hate HAAAAAAAAAAATE when I get yanked out of the movie because of gratuitous fail when it could so easily have been pure fun, you know?
