I was looking forward to watching the Green Hornet on the big screen, after listening to this super-hero on the radio back in my early years.

I found it just a little too cute with running gags and no attention about plot or characters.

It all adds up to about a half-dozen laughs and didn't take the crime fighter seriously enough.

I wanted to see and feel the flavor of the earlier Hornet and bring back and enjoy the memories.

Maybe next time?

It's not easy being green!

Seth Rogan (the Jerry Lewis of the new millennium) mugs his way through a terrible script (which he, himself co-wrote), while at the same time trying to pay "tribute" to the old radio & T.V. series.

This light-hearted approach to the vigilante film is not for purists and only works part-time.

Excessive use of car chases only works for its intended audience of impressionable young men.

However, most of the film just doesn't cut it.

The only innovative writing is the hysterically funny "villain in search of a gimmick."

The Green Hornet, a reimagination of the comic book super-hero character that has been around since the 1930s when it was a main support of radio.

The picture might have been more absorbing had it not felt like a duty to spend about half its running time telling us the story of the Green Hornet's birth -- a narrative to which the term "overfamiliar" doesn't do justice.

I'm a long-time fan of the radio adventures of the character, and I didn't like what the filmmakers have done with this resurrection.

It's a mediocre, silly mindless mess of a forgettable movie.
