    My Reaction: Stunned

      Today, at about 12:20pm, I went to my local mall to see the first showing of the GREEN HORNET with my friend and fellow CV User, Loki a.k.a. DemonicBlade. After nearly two hours of slapstick humor and insane special effects, I have developed mixed feelings about this long awaited film. There were moments were I laughed and then their were moments where I thought it was pointless. I kinda like the fact that there were many references from the Hornet's past, mostly from the fabled 1960's TV Show, but the flim lacked drama and of course....CENTERY CITY (Not LOS ANGELES). Now I wish that Kevin Smith's Green Hornet was an actual movie (but nothing is wrong with comic book adaption). If there was another chance for a reboot for among many lame/failed superheroe films, The Green Hornet would be on the top of the list...along with Will Eisner's The Spirit.

In a perfect world we might have seen a Green Hornet movie like Matt Wagner's Year One storyline.

      Based off the classic radio drama, 60s TV show, and 70 years of comic book iterations, the Green Hornet movie looks to bring this classic character to a new generation of fans. Britt Reid (Seth Rogen) is living a life of debauchery at his father’s expense, a well-respected newsman and owner of the Sentinel newspaper, when his father’s unlikely demise leaves Britt as the sole inheritor of the family fortune and newspaper legacy. Having wasted most of his life, Britt relies on the people around hi...

      With all the mixed reviews on this movie that us as a community has written I have decided to add my 2 cents.  The short review is that this is a fun movie.  Don't expect your life to change after it, its the Green Hornet.  Go in expecting a fun ride and you'll be happy.  Go in expecting Inception, then that is just expecting Twilight being Stephen King.  *The longer part to the review* I'll be honest with you, I was thinking this movie was going to be bad.  It was actually very enjoyable.
