In the story the Green Hornet has not been able to provide fresh ideas for the audience let alone the basis of the Green hornet 2011 is a version of his radio in the era of 30's. Directed by Michel Gondry should have known that he could not make a good movie with a less good story material. There's not much he could do except make the best with mediocre material by optimizing the visual. But not much he could do with the story and the characters are actually a hindrance for him.
