Review of The Nice Guys (2016) by Aestos — 13 Jun 2016

All the reasons that people seem to be listing for not liking this movie are the exact reasons I did like it. Crowe and Gosling are magic together and the plot, which doesn't take itself too seriously, are well fitted for the type of humor they deliver. Some people have said the plot is meandering, ridiculous and stupid, to name a few of descriptors I read, and thank god. I went to see a comedy, not a Bourne film blended with a "The Hunt for Red October" level of seriousness. It's meant to be fun, light hearted, and easy to watch.

What happens on the screen is that two guys from different worlds get thrown together by circumstance and eek their way through a twisted plot that is larger than life. (No spoilers) Is that cliche, yep. Do I care? Not a bit. They made it work and I would recommend it to friends and family.

Tl;dr It's good. Worth Watching. Funny. Not for Kids.
