I went to watch this long-awaited movie for this is Jay Chou’s debut in Hollywood and for his wife who is Jay’s super fan. The overall feeling is that the film is a little flat and the plot is clichéd, but Jay Chou's performance is absolutely eye-catching!
That being the case, let me start with Jay Chou:
Jay Chou plays Kato in the play, whose name resembles a Japanese, but he was born in Shanghai. . . Well, anyway, I don't understand the background of this story. He likes Bruce Lee, so treat Kato as a Chinese. Don't translate it into "Kato", just translate it into "Kato". Card head's parents passed away early. By chance, he would come to the United States to work alone. He met Britt's father because he could repair a car, and then he was met by a rich second generation like Britt because he could make great bubbling coffee.
Rich second generations like Britt are no different from the vast majority of rich second generations in China. They don't study well or work well. They just pick up girls and have parties every day, and they have unrealistic pride in their hearts. . . Maybe it was from Jin Yong. After I met Kato, I was conquered by Kato’s amazing talent: Kato has strong mechanical design and manufacturing capabilities, from coffee machines to firearms to cars, omnipotent, and strong hands-on ability. If it is not reduced to the United States, it will definitely be sent. The type of HKUST Junior Class. Kato also happened to be a fan of Bruce Lee, and he was good at it, so Britt began to vigorously encourage him, and the two of them started the activity of "killing people, robbing the rich and helping the poor" together. . . No, they didn't overwhelm them, but they killed the bad guys and at the same time caused the police to be hit hard, and they couldn't characterize their behavior. . .
From the perspective of the character design of the movie, although Kato is named Britt’s assistant, he is actually the core character of the Green Hornet story: Without the awesome pretense he designed, how can Britt pretend to be? Although Britt is "expensive" as the Green Hornet, he is actually a funny character, far different from the real heroes in Iron Man Spiderman Batman. So I said that this film can be regarded as a personal performance of Jay Chou, and the Americans are pulling the back and threading.
In order not to become a man's play, Cameron Diaz was hired to play a dispensable female secretary, and a love triangle was also created in the story. But in my opinion, this is really redundant. Diaz's scene can be perfectly deleted without hurting the main line. This vase has failed a little.
Of course, this story is easy and humorous, and it is funny and relaxing. It doesn't need an awesome plot or excessive acting skills. What you see is the splendid fighting scenes and the gorgeous equipment. Therefore, from this point of view, "The Green Hornet" positioned as a comedy movie is still good.
Jay Chou's acting skills are not too good, but he is absolutely stable, and the unique style of Asians who rely on kung fu to play handsome shows in his body vividly and vividly. In the movie, Jay Chou showed off basketball, showed off the piano, and showed off his accented English, which made us fans like it too. But then again, there is still room for Jay Chou’s English to improve. Many times his English is learned from others, and it is very blunt. If these can be overcome, maybe this film will be more natural and smooth, Jay Chou. The road to Hollywood will be smoother.
Finally, if you insist on saying something dissatisfied, then, the fake 3D of this film is really cheating money!
