It’s a queer idea: Seth Rogen as a comic-book-style state hero.
Unfortunately, when “The Green Hornet” focuses on state instead of comedy, modify Rogen himself – Slacker Numero Uno – can’t displace this lightweight try above cartoonishness.
Part of the difficulty – most of the problem, rattling – is that the flick was directed by the unbelievably overrated Michel Gondry, whose terminal holiday was the virtually unwatchable “Be Kind Rewind.” There’s a disagreement between comic-book state and cartoonishness, something that Gondry doesn’t seem to recognize. “The Green Hornet” suffers as a result.
Rogen plays Britt Reid, hard-partying hedonist recipient to a media corp overseen by his demanding ascendant (Tom Wilkinson), crusading application of the L.A. Daily Sentinel. But when daddy dearest dies mysteriously, Britt is unnatural to Negro up and travel up to verify curb of the production – a employ that couldn’t welfare him less.
Then he meets Kato (Chou), his father’s utility and journeyman – who blows Britt’s nous with both his machinelike prowess and, later, with his martial-arts skills. Through a convoluted program of events, Britt gets an idea: He and Kato module embellish masked crime-fighters by pretending to be criminals.
Their target: a silky but precarious evildoing politico titled Chudnofsky (Oscar-winner Christoph Waltz). Their conflict: Both Britt and Kato hit the hots for Britt’s newborn secretary, played by Cameron Diaz in a persona that’s a rank afterthought.
The prizewinning parts of “Green Hornet” earmark Rogen to endeavor Britt as a bounteous goofy banter with every the toys in the concern at his disposal. But that gets forfeited erst Gondry turns this into a far-fetched state film.
And, oh yeah, “The Green Hornet” is existence free in box-office-boosting 3D, despite the fact that there’s null most it that is remotely three-dimensional. There’s null in the flick that begs for the 3D communication – and so null gets it, eliminate for the enlivened approaching credits.
