Britt Reid (Seth Rogen) is a fun-loving slacker who spends his time partying and living off his wealthy father; James Reid (Tom Wilkinson). But when James is found dead Britt becomes the heir to his empire and all of a sudden his attitude to life changes. He fires all of his father’s staff apart from the maid and his assistant Kato (Jay Chou). After getting drunk together and discussing how much they hated James, Britt and Kato go to visit his gravesite to vandalise the grave as payback. After doing this they see a couple being mugged and come to their rescue. After succeeding Britt now has a new desire in life and feels it’s time to serve his purpose.
Britt convinces Kato to form a crime-fighting team with him who pose as criminals to infiltrate real criminals. After getting a taste of vigilante the two decide it’s time to go after the big fish. So they set out to take down Russian mobster Benjamin Chudnofsky (Cristoph Waltz) and bring his corrupt economy to its knees. -M.F.

This is a great movie at a great price, I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone.
The Green Hornet is a film which is enhanced by the special features, which will incline you towards favouring the film more than if you never watched them. In particular, watch the extended car chase, which would have been excellent if there had been room for the whole thing. Written by the star and his mate, the shoddy joke that would have been has clearly been turned into something much more entertaining by the contributions of others (such as Cameron Diaz, whose input into her role apparently turned the plot right around and of course the director, who is well-known for his unusual take on things). As a result of all this moulding, something well-crafted emerges. I like it and that's why I'm adding an extra star.
