Britt Reid (Seth Rogen) is de zoon van de bekendste en meest gerespecteerde mediamagnaat van L.A. Zijn zorgeloze leventje bestaat voornamelijk uit feestvieren, totdat zijn vader op mysterieuze wijze sterft en aan Britt zijn omvangrijke imperium nalaat. Britt sluit daarop vriendschap met één van zijn vaders werknemers, de toegewijde en inventieve Kato (Jay Chou). Ze besluiten om voor het eerst in hun leven iets zinvols te doen: de misdaad bestrijden. En de beste manier om dit te doen is... door zelf crimineel te worden. Zo wordt Britt 'The Green Hornet' en samen met Kato gaat hij de straat op, om de wet te beschermen door deze te overtreden... De vindingrijke Kato bouwt het ultieme retro-wapen: The Black Beauty, een snelle en onverwoestbare auto met de meest geavanceerde wapens aan boord. Met dit rijdende fort en de slimme gadgets van Kato worden ze al snel de schrik van iedere crimineel. Met behulp van Britts nieuwe secretaresse, Lenore Case (Cameron Diaz), openen ze de jacht op de man die de onderwereld van L.A. beheerst: Benjamin Chudnofsky (Christoph Waltz). Maar Chudnofsky heeft zijn eigen plan...

Ever since I heard about "The Green Hornet", I expected a bad movie. It didn't seem like it would work...boy was I wrong. I saw a screening of this recently, and walked in with zero expectations, and walked out having laughed throughout the movie and REALLY enjoyed the action and chemistry between Rogen and Jay Chou. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg did a fantastic job crafting this script, which could have been truly horrible, into a fun ride. The true star of the movie is Jay Chou, aka Kato. His accent was sometimes hard to interpret, but he was surprisingly funny, and Kato-vision (time slows when his heart starts pumping during fights) turned out pretty cool in 3-D. Thank goodness Nic Cage walked away from this, and Christoph Waltz came in as the bad guy, because Christoph inhabited the role better than Nic could have. I enjoy Nic Cage, but he wouldn't of worked in this movie, and with that character. Nic Cage would have been too over the top, where as Christoph went a subtle route. The movie isn't perfect, I didn't feel Cameron Diaz added anything to the movie expect being "the hot girl" to create a rift between guys, but if you're looking for a pure escapist fun ride, then look no further than "The Green Hornet."
