Review of The Nice Guys (2016) by Elan K — 01 Sep 2016

"The Nice Guys" is written and directed by Shane Black and stars Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe and is about a mismatched pair of private eyes teaming up to investigate the suicide of a pornstar in 1974 Los Angeles.

So originally I was quite looking forward to "The Nice Guys" as from the trailer the film seem to convey a sense of style and pervade that I found quite intriguing, so my anticipation for this film was quite large, and well "The Nice Guys" does live up to my expectations it does not pass them by any means.

First off this film excellently written, with a great mystery that keeps to the audience hooked throughout and many comedic scenes that had me splitting with laughter. Gosling and Crowe's chemistry was unexpectedly and uniquely perfect in this film, I'd totally love to see them in another movie again or possibly a Nice Guys 2.

Now there is a young girl in this film who I found to falter a bit, there were times she would be really good and to others where it felt like she was reading off a script. I have no problems with this movie whatsoever, the action was great, comedy was funny and all around it was great flick.

I wish had more to say about but "The Nice Guys" was just a solid flick and I got everything I wanted out of it. "The Nice Guys" gets a 8/10.
