The Green Hornet
8.5/10

The movie had a solid plot and opened with an unexpected twist, but made the mistake of having 2 main characters be entirely based on cliches, aka the eager journalist and the playboy with daddy issues. The main character's moment of realization and growth was forced. It was a welcome surprise to find that Kaido made up for the two major flaws. The dialogue was fast, witty, and leaves you wanting to know more about the characters.

Would I rather have a spin-off based on Kaido? Hell yes.


My scale of awesomeness...
10= Perfect and would watch again immediately after it ended
9= Perfect, but would not watch again immediately
8= Marred by cliches, bad lines, or actor/ess clearly being a spotlight hog, but otherwise a solid good movie
7= Underdeveloped characters or plots, but a decent movie
6-1= Here and below the flaws just add insult to injury
