Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

I tend to have the ability to pick out movies that have incoherent plots but great acting. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is an original, stylish movie. Above all, it is VERY well acted. Val Kilmer and Robert Downey Jr. both give their best perfomances in years. Kilmer as the sarcastic gay P.I. and Downey as the soft New Yorker who wishes to be tough.

I would like to get into the plot, but I'm not sure I quite understand what the hell it was all about. It was basically a crime novel wrapped in another crime novel. Eventually, I lost intrest in the plot because of the rambling incoherence of it and the fine acting that distracted me. It sounds like I dislike the movie but nothing could be further from the truth. Scene for scene, it's probably the most original movie I've seen in a long time. As confusing as the script is, it somehow still doesn't take away from the enjoyment of watching this movie.

Grade: B+
