Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (USA) (Warner Bros) (2005) ****Year: 2005iMDB
Director: Shane Black Cast: Robert Downey Jr, Val Kilmer, Michelle Monaghan
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is perhaps one of the hidden pearls of 2005. A detective story told in classic noir style, filled with dark humor and crazy situations. Harry Lockhart (Downey Jr) a smalltime burglar that ends up being mistaken for an actor, forms an unlikely partnership with private investigator Gay Perry (Val Kilmer) in figuring out the details of a plot that involves Hollywood producers, Harry's highschool love, her sister and various mobsters.
While the humor and style, fast-paced dialogue and rather crazy plot may not appeal to everyone, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is one of the most original and refreshing movies of 2005.
