Review of The Singing Detective (2003) by John C — 20 Apr 2004

[list][*]Fun[*]Funny[*]Original[*]Strange[*]Adrian Brody is cool[*]Robert Downy Jr's character is hilarious with his bitterness and witty remarks[*]I enjoyed the blend of old 50's detective mystery and musical numbers with the present day struggle and interesting conversations with Mel Gibson's character[*]The ending was more straightforward than I thought it would be but I didn't have a problem with it[*][b]Recommendation[/b]: Don't mind a musical number every now and then? Enjoy old detective stories? Skin diseases don't bother you too much? Like movies that don't need car explosions to entertain?[*][b]Grade[/b]: B+[/list].
