Review of Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005) by Katrina J — 08 Apr 2017
The way the movie deals with 'Gay' Perry's gayness is a bit cringey and dates the movie somewhat, but apart from that, this is a brilliantly fun movie, and an impressive directiorial debut for Shane Black.
Downey, Kilmer and Monaghan are all on fire, though they are helped a lot by Black's killer dialogue. The Chandleresque gumshoe elements and hammy humour bring the movie close to cliche, but it never actually crosses the line, so it feels like a classic movie while being completely original.
..thereby becoming a classic movie in its own right. It's also probably the second-best Christmas movie ever made. Awesome.
