Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang: Strange, Silly, violent……very entertaining. The film stars Val Kilmer and Robert Downey Jr. Kilmer plays Gay Perry, a gay private detective who also works with actors in Hollywood to help their acting performance as detectives. Downey plays a thief turned actor who is working with Gay Perry to prepare for an audition. On a night out they witness two hit men disposing of a body and the plot thickens from there. The movie has many strange and just silly plot lines and the story keeps getting deeper and more bizarre, yet it all works as a whole - For one Klimer’s character is hilarious and the best role he has had in 10 years and second, the writing of the film is brilliant. Downey narrates the story and even that is done in a creative way, with him rewinding the movie or explaining to you why he is telling you something. I do not like either of these actors normally, but in this film they are a great on screen duo. I have a feeling watching this a second time would open up even more laughs – it is just that kind of movie. A very funny, film noir!
