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

Rating: - 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 ...

Rating: - Beyond Amazing, SEE THIS MOVIE!!!!
I first saw this movie because of my love for Robert Downey Jr, and this is by far my favorite film by him. The story is silly, clever, and dark. There is a plethora of clever inside jokes and jibes. The cast is phenomenal; Downey Jr. plays a great imp as Harry Lockhart, and Val Kilmer is great as Gay Perry, who is full of biting jabs and flair. Michelle Monaghan also shines in this movie, she adds a lot of spark and goofiness to the film.
I was laughing my butt off for the entire film, ... Read More
Rating: - Great movie with lots of laughs
great movie that will keep you laughing. In some ways is a much more realistic look at how a regular guy would react if he was suddenly involved in murder and intrige.
Rating: - Too Clever By Half
I love both Robert Downey Jr. and Val Kilmer but I don't have a lot of positive things to say about this movie. I found it too talky and its plot was not believable. It was really hard for me to suspend my disbelief while watching it. None of the characters were endearing and it was a challenge to care about what happened to them. Also, in real life, there would be no chemistry between Downey's character and the female lead, Ms. Monaghan. Her history and the reprehensible manner in which she treats him ... Read More
Rating: - Great Acting but A Little Self Indulgent...
Well casted, well acted, well filmed, and almost well written - Kiss Kiss Bang Bang intrigued me and turned out to be what I expected it to be: a quaint, slightly offbeat dark detective comedy. Nicely set up and compelling in the beginning - Downey and Kilmer make an unlikely but highly watchable duo. Downey is spot on as ever, but it's Kilmer who shines. Past the a-list, it's interesting to see Kilmer in different roles now. The plot however, turned out to be more complicated than Robert Towne's Chinatown ... Read More
