kiss kiss, bang bang


This is a year 2005 production, by the way...

First time I heard about this movie, I was like, wondering, what kind of movie is this? The title is just ridiculous.. Also starring Val Kilmer, whom I don’t really fond of. Although the other guy is Robert Downey Jr, whom, I like very much, but still.. I didn’t have the intension to watch this one.

Until one day.. I didn’t have a decent movie to watch, and I got bored. The only possible movie to watch in my cable was this movie. What was I suppose to do?

Then, I watched this one..
Then, I started to smile
Then, I couldn’t stop watching
Then, I laughed so hard so much
Now, I can’t get enough of it..

Downey is Harry Lockhart who steals for a living, an amateur. With luck, a bit skill in acting and, once again, with luck, he ended up as a trainee actor in Hollywood.

Gay Perry (Kilmer), gay of course, a friend of Harry’s founder, is a private “honest to God” detective. He is asked to give detective training to Harry.

Harmony (Monaghan) is an actress wannabe from Indiana who successfully starred one national TV commercial, and that’s it. She ended up being a catering and a bar waitress. She also turned out to be Harry’s childhood friend and first love.

The detective training trapped Harry and Perry in a real murder case, connected to Harmony, a big Hollywood producer and Harmony’s sister.

Robert Downey Jr, as usual, plays amazingly remarkable, funny like hell (well, although I don’t think hell is funny) and geniusly entertaining. He narrates the film amusingly. Michelle Monaghan is not so bad also, naturally brings Harmony’s sexy character. Surprisingly, I love..love..and love Val Kilmer in this movie. He performed smartly as a gay guy.

Downey was nominated, as usual again, for Satellite Award with the categories of Outstanding Actor in Motion Picture, Comedy or Musical and for Outstanding Original Song in 2005.

I gotta say, this is a smart, hilarious, entertaining simple movie with a not very important story. Shane Black beautifully wrapped this one. A highly recommended film!!
