Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

KISS KISS BANG BANG (2005) - June 12, 2006
A really enjoyable film noir buddy comedy / murder mystery. Written and directed by Shane Black, who wrote the first Lethal Weapon, and who does a good job here directing for the first time. The movie was surprisingly funny, with most of the laughs coming from the interplay between Robert Downey Jr. and Val Kilmer (who were both quite good). The self-aware narration was sometimes a bit too clever for its own good, but aside from that, good stuff. ***1/2
