Watched it... Love, love, love this movie... I think it's an action/adventure/comedy film. If it's not really comedy then I'm sorry but I did laugh a lot (^^,). Britt Reid, the character, is just so childishly funny. He's the clown.
Kato is the man!!! Well, not his man but sort of. He's like the bodyguard who does all the work while Britt takes all the credit for being The Green Hornet.
Who'd have thought you'll actually be popular by stealing your dead father's head... statue head... Thanks to the publishing company Britt inherited from his dead father, they made it big. He actually made a syndicate leader jealous of his popularity... and the costume even more...
I wonder why the car, black beauty, was never given emphasis. It's the killer car Kato made. One push of a button and it'll kill you literally.
I had the copy of the book but I never read it and just waited for the movie so I really can't compare much. It's better though because I enjoyed the movie and wasn't disappointed like I was with the Twilight series (although I did enjoy it too :)).
