Thought this was an okay film until the end action set piece that got dumber as it went along and the 3-D was TERRIBLE!

Just rented this film.  I think this is a big misfire by the studio and Rogen.  I am a big fan of his. I even enjoy films like Funny People and Observe and Report (neither of which got any mainstream love), but this film just does not work.  Rogen played the role as a major d-bag and his character is pretty useless.  He can’t fight, fire a gun and he’s just unlikable.  The script makes no sense and goes all over the place and the supporting cast is just wasted.  Waltz is underused and other than looking good, Diaz’ character could have been played by any other on the come up actress instead of a million dollar star.  The only saving grace is Chou as Kato, and they almost ruin that by having him be a genius who can put a mind controlled nuclear bomb in a car, but can’t swim. 

 

In the end, Rogen was miscast and the film is wasted opportunity.

Nevermind, you guys said the cameo part anyways..i didnt wana listen to the review until after seeing the movie 1st (which was yesterday afternoon)...but it didnt really spoil much. but since i didnt know beforehand...i saw Franco and was like "wtf! not surprised but cool". He did a perfect job as a goofy "wanna-be-cool" mob guy lol...then getting scared shitless by Waltz. Probably my favorite moment.

Also KATO was simply awesome. I would have been happy enough just seeing a movie called "KATO" and would have loved it whether it was serious or comedy, woulda been sick.

Was good, fun but not perfect. DEFINITELY a Matinee...Nothing more..nothing less.

I did like a particular cameo at the beginning which I don't want to spoil, but it worked VERY well w/ upsetting Christoph Waltz lol.

Had some damn good action, pretty good directing, and good acting for this type of movie...but I figured after a while Seth Rogen would stop being an asshole..but nope..he only had some tiny revelation near the end which didn't even change his attitude lol.

lets just say hes more like "OH SHIT a bunch of people basically died because of me? oops" and carries on lol.

Still a really fun movie though. The best 3D effects were in the credits lol!! obviously due to converting it and probably saying "damn we gotta make SOMETHING 3D".

Then again...for a converted movie, it wasnt bad.

this was some ole bullshit to me. Seth Rogen's character was so annoying and unlikeable. Even the action scenes seemed like shitty video game shots. Yeah i know this is just supposed to be a fun super hero movie but coming out i was just annoyed and a little angry

Yowch, dude! Green Hornet had some good jokes! The League has way more!

@lukeamongclouds

You seem to think most jokes everywhere "miss their targets"

Whoa, really Korey, what's with the attitude. I do care what's going on, and what you're up to, that's why I frequent the site. I'm just saying as far as recent reviews go, it seems that you've only seen a fraction of the movies you're "reviewing", and it's a little frustrating. Sure, I like your thoughts. Sure, you've got good input. But, and this is my opinion, your input weighs little to nothing if you haven't actually seen the film. Is that not a valid statement? Anyway, I love the site, and the reviews are great...when everyone is actually reviewing the film. DON'T HATE ME, but it feels a little like cheating to get paid to "review" a movie you haven't seen yet. That is all. Kato for the win.

Just saw the Green Hornet, loved it and to those bitching about the movie simply put take the stick (or head) out you asses and enjoy it. :D the franchise has been dead for nearly 40 years (and it was a shit show at best!) For the most part Rogen and Gondry did a fine job breathing life back into it and uuh guys Rogen LOST weight I think age may have affected your sights (joking of course). Flawed but I had still had fun FULL PRICE!
