Review of Kiss Kiss... Bang Bang (1966) by Lam H — 11 Jul 2013
A film that I have never got round to seeing and I don't know why as I love Shane Black's work but having recently seen 'Iron Man 3' I was keen to catch this. It is a funny thriller with some great dialogue and brilliant interplay between Downey Jnr and Kilmer.
This must have been the film that relaunched the former's career as he has made a habit of playing the same kind of characters ever since! The big surprise for me was Monaghan as I have seen her more in 'women in peril' roles in 'Mission Impossible III' and 'Gone Baby Gone' but she plays wild and crazy here and it was a nice surprise.
The film feels like it runs out of steam a bit before the end but it's still a fun ride and it certainly brought a smile to my face.
