The Green Hornet.

I saw the Green Hornet in 3d the other day, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised given the amount of disparaging comments I had read about it online and in print.  I think that some of the movie's critics may not really 'get' the movie and what it was trying to do, this dawned on me when we returned to my friends' house after the movie and his dad asked us if it was "as good as Iron Man." I had to tell him that it was really impossible to make that comparison.  The Green Hornet has more in common with a mid 90's buddy cop comedy  than a traditional superhero movie.  The movie does have some good action scenes but even these are interspersed with jokes. The main thing to keep in mind about the film is not to take it too seriously because the filmmakers, writers and actors themselves sure as hell don't. 

 So while I thought the film was pretty funny and overall entertaining and worth a watch, I do have to say that Christoff Waltz's performance was absolute garbage even in a movie that obviously didn't set the bar for acting very high. Another thing that turned me off was the 3d effects, they were completely unnecessary and I didn't think they really did anything for the movie.
