- 75Miami HeraldRene RodriguezMiami HeraldRene RodriguezA big, boisterous action-comedy - a funny, exciting and intentionally goofy summer movie that just happens to arrive in the middle of January.
- 70The Hollywood ReporterMichael RechtshaffenThe Hollywood ReporterMichael RechtshaffenNever achieves sufficient traction to go the blockbuster distance.
- 60Arizona RepublicBill GoodykoontzArizona RepublicBill GoodykoontzThe Green Hornet, which strives to be a different take on the superhero genre, is an interesting film - until it devolves into abject stupidity.
- 45MovielineMovielineWhile this latest Rogen-penned iteration is a game try, it feels a bit like he's trying to make a volume out of a footnote.
- 42Entertainment WeeklyLisa SchwarzbaumEntertainment WeeklyLisa SchwarzbaumIn a last-minute tweak, the production has also been meaninglessly 3-D-ified - never mind that there's nothing whatsoever 3-D-ish going on. Maybe those clumsy 3-D glasses are meant to let moviegoers mimic the superhero mask-wearing experience?
- 40Time OutKeith UhlichTime OutKeith UhlichInjecting a devil-may-care attitude into a franchise-focused blockbuster only gets you so far. When all is said and done, this wasp's got no sting.
- 40Village VoiceJ. HobermanVillage VoiceJ. HobermanThe Green Hornet provides a half-hour's worth of mildly entertaining travesty before collapsing in a clamor of bombastic action sequences and lame wisecracks.
- 38Orlando SentinelRoger MooreOrlando SentinelRoger MooreA violent, clumsy, jokey, badly-plotted and miscast mess.
- 25Tampa Bay TimesSteve PersallTampa Bay TimesSteve PersallBilled as an action comedy, The Green Hornet isn't funny, and the action is often too frenetic to make any impression.
