I didn't like this movie. And that's an understatement. I think this is the worst hero movie I've ever watched! I don't like the story (I don't have any word to describe it but it's badly written), the lines of the characters are badly written, bad acting by Seth Rogen, worst character of a hero (Britt Reid - even after his father died, he did not change a bit!), and Jay Chou's wasn't so entertaining, too. I was really disappointed with this movie. I was excited to see Jay Chou in this movie but I was really disappointed. I slept after half an hour of the movie and I did not watch the entire film continuously, just got glimpses of it once in a while while it was running. Seriously, "super unlike"!!!!

I haven't had a chance to see it yet. That's too bad. I like the old Green Hornet series. Some remakes are just bad. Too bad because I liked the old one.

I don't recommend watching this movie. It might just ruin your memories of the old series.

I did not watch this movie, but I can see that you will fall asleep in between the movie hours if it does not interest you. I used to have such an experience before. An interesting and good movie is always exciting to us and makes us want to finish watching it till the end of it. Recently I have been watching a 98-series of Chinese TV series entitled with Huanzhu Gege. I watch it every day. Just now I finished watching the whole of it and I am very happy with it. Enjoy yourself, secretbear.

LOL =D HIgh 5, secret!! I'm sick and tired of super hero movies already. Super heros seems to be everywhere and they never seem to decrease in number. IF there's superhero, there should be only one, yet there are so many of them, all for the same aim, some motive.. lol =D ONly difference between them all are the costumes, and colors, ranging from red, to green, to black.. lol =D

Different powers, different enemies, different circumstances.

haven't watched the green hornet from the start, i just saw hubby watching it. until i finally notice Seth Rogen's sidekick: Jay Chou even though i don't like the movie that much, i still watched it even though i don't kinda like the movie just because of Jay Chou's cuteness

Jay Chou's the reason why I also watched it.

I have to agree that this film is a waste of my time, I was really disappointed at the movie. I just wished that I listened to my friends when they say that they didn't like the movie.

My mistake on my part is that I didn't read any reviews first before I watched the movie.

Why? I like this movie, not Green Hornet himself, but I love Kato's character. He's so awesome. Also, I think Bruce Lee starred in Kato's character before. And they said that this is the movie which makes him famous.

I also like Kato's character but I think Jay Chou was not very good performing the role. I like the action scenes but I thought his acting was a little bit awkward and I could not understand his English very well! He should improve it before he goes to another Hollywood movie.

I fell asleep because I got bored with it. But I did not sleep that long, only 15 minutes. And I don't think I missed a lot during those times. I will not waste anymore time by watching it again.

Well, I agree with you that it is not a good movie, but I can't say it is the worst haha. I don't like the performance of Seth rogen, he tries to be hilarious, but in fact he is not and the characters of his role is not attractive and indeed very Wicked. For jay chou, I think he has tried his best as it is his very first hollywood film and he is not good in English, he has a lot to consider which might affect his performance. Personally speaking, I enjoy watching hero movie like iron man than this film.

I agree! He tries to be hilarious but he is not, and I personally think he was annoying there. I did not even smile in any of his jokes and comedy antics. I agree again. Jay Chou should improve his English first before he goes to another Hollywood movie. Actually, I felt like he was a little awkward with his acting so I guess he should learn how not to be awkward and not nervous when working with Hollywood actors.

i agee with you i did not like this movie either i never really watched the green hornet super hero as a child but after seeing this movie i wasnt missing anything i sat down with a friend and watched the entire movie in one sitting but all the way through it i was bored out of my mind and could not keep focus on the what was going on in the movie the only reason i kept watching it was because my friends dad wanted to watch the entire thing (he was into it more than me)

I was not able to watch the green hornet tv series, too. But I thought it was cool because it doesn't involve any super powers. Too bad, the movie wasn't cool.
