Shane Black delivers with this spiritual successor to Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang. In fact, the only bad things I have to say about this film are that it so closely mirrors his previous work. Of course, that previous work was hilarious and tremendously fun, as is The Nice Guys. Crowe and Gosling are perfectly cast, and a joy to watch in these roles. The plot is a great noir story, and I was loudly laughing throughout most of the film.
9.75/10
