Product Description:
A petty thief posing as an actor is brought to los angeles for an unlikely audition & finds himself in the middle of a murder investigation along with his high school dream girl & a detective whos been training him for his upcoming role.Studio: Warner Home VideoRelease Date: 12/09/2008Starring: Robert Downey Jr Michelle MonaghanRun time: 103 minutesRating: R
Amazon.com:
As a screenwriter, Shane Black made millions of dollars from screenplays for the big-budget action movies Lethal Weapon and The Last Boy Scout, among others. With his directing debut Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang, Black mocks and undercuts every cliche he once helped to invent. While fleeing from the cops, small time hood Harry Lockhart (Robert Downey Jr., Wonder Boys) stumbles into an acting audition--and does so well he gets taken to Hollywood, where--pursuing a girl he loved in high school (foxy Michelle Monaghan, North Country)--he gets caught up in twisty murder mystery. His only chance of getting out alive is a private detective named Gay Perry (Val Kilmer, Wonderland, The Doors), who sidelights as a consultant for movies. No plot turn goes untweaked by Black's clever, witty script, and Downey, Kilmer, and Monaghan clearly have a ball playing their screwball variations on action movie stereotypes. There's nothing profound about Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang, but it brings back wicked mischief to a genre that all often takes itself too seriously. --Bret Fetzer

- Best noir of the last 10 years at least
Funny, smart, interesting and just a blast to watch over and over- HD-DVD or Blu-Ray both look the same, nice and sharp picture quality, for the HD-DVD price this was a no brainer
Rating:
- Robert Downey is Likable ?
I'm not a Robert Downey fan but he gives a good performance in a very

A must see if youra mystery/comedy fan.

- A must for any movie buff.
I have been a fan of this film for a few years and was happy to learn that it was available for Blu-Ray. The film was clear and the picture was vibrant so if you have this film for DVD you may want to upgrade. The film is well worth it; it's dark humor is brilliant and I hope Robert Downy Jr. and Val Kilmer make more movies together.
Rating:
- Funny. Sexy. Cool
What can I say?
Robert Downey Jr. and Val Kilmer nailed this one.
Their dynamic is really something special. The plot is quite good and has enough mini twists to keep you busy and into it.
Great movie, must own!

- Color Me Awful!
Obviously I am alone in my feelings about KISS KISS BANG BANG.It DOES have it's merits.Robert Downey, Jr. is one of them.It was very difficult for me to sit still during the film and concentrate on what was going on.I kept getting up from my chair and going into the kitchen to find something to eat.I even cleaned the kitty litter tray during one point of the film.It is just a waste of everyone's talent.Of course, if you have child support to pay, and both Downey and Kilmer do, I guess ...
