From producer Joel Silver and screenwriter Shane Black, both of Lethal Weapon fame, comes an action-comedy spoof of rough-and-tumble buddy films--Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang. A private detective (Val Kilmer - Alexander), a thief posing as a struggling actor (Robert Downey Jr. - Gothika) and an actual struggling actress (Michelle Monaghan - The Bourne Supremacy) become entangled in a murder mystery filled with twists, turns, betrayal and, most importantly, romance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why Robert Downey Jr. Gets So Many 2nd Chances
Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2006
Verified Purchase
Truly, from day one of marketing this movie, through its theatrical release, and now DVD release - nothing normal is done. It wasn't hyped up. It didn't last long in the theatres. It also took forever to reach DVD in a time when it seems like some DVDs are released a month or so after leaving the theatres. Even the additional bizarreness of having it air on Pay Per View before the DVD came out (as opposed to airing 2 months after the DVD), adds to the quirkiness.

Maybe it's because the movie itself is so unexpectedly quirky from beginning to end, full of characters your gut tells you aren't that likable, but nonetheless you like them. They grow on you quickly from a botched burglary to an accidentally spectacular movie audition, all in the first 5 minutes.

So goes the rest of the movie at a breakneck speed, with the occasional rewind as the narrating burglar, Downey, berating himself for failing to tell an important point of the story. The gist of the story is this: Harry (Downey) is flown out to Los Angeles to supposedly begin research for his inadvertantly won role, tutored by a gay private detective (Val Kilmer) who works part time for the studios. There Harry meets, Harmony, the girl he grew up with, precariously perched on the edge of a small town girl gone wrong in her running away to Hollywood. From that point on begins the impossibly fast downhill roll of murder, plots, confusion, love, and so on.

The thing that makes this formulaic sounding idea completely different in its spit in the wind take on cliches. Kilmer's detective, known as Gay Perry, is not a gay stereotype. When Harry wakes up the morning after meeting his old girlfriend, the girl in his bed isn't her, it's her obnoxious friend. All seemingly good plans go wrong, both by the criminal element and the quasi-good guy Harry, et al. Just as you think you're getting a handle on what's going on, it takes another twisting turn. The ending isn't picture perfect, though some characters lives have improved, they aren't exactly where they wanted to be.

The acting is spectacular, particularly Downey. You cannot watch this movie and be unimpressed by his craft. Kilmer is solid and restrained, making his character believably gay yet masculine. You believe his Hollywood nickname of Gay Perry as more than a play on words; it might just be to remind everybody that his character IS gay and it's a non-issue for the most part. The supporting characters all have perfect dark comedic timing. It's one great big slap at all the overdone cliches, some of which were developed by the Lethal Weapon movies that writer and director Shane Black made. It takes a brave director to take whacks at himself.

All in all, a terrifically dark humored movie with no delusions of grandeur. Plus there are little 'in' jokes, such as Indio Downey, Robert Downey's look-alike son playing young Harry. Or an old clip of Corbin Bernson pre-L.A. Law used to identify his present time character with the convoluted past of Harmony and a movie shoot in their hometown when she was young. Most subtle was Harry having a rather nasty injury requiring him to be prescribed a heavy duty painkiller... and the character of Harry slurringly stating that he was fine, just a little woozy, and would be completely okay after two more pills.

4.0 out of 5 stars "I was wetter than Drew Barrymore at a grunge club."
Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2006

I was hesitant to take on Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005) primarily because I was unsure if it would be any good based on some of the more prominent cast members, specifically Robert Downey Jr., who seems pretty flaky due to his continual problems with the drugs (he couldn't get enough!) and Val Kilmer, who's had more misses than hits, in my opinion (the last really good feature I saw him in was 1995's Heat). Based partly on Brett Halliday's novel "Bodies Are Where You Find Them", adapted and directed by Shane Black (Lethal Weapon, The Last Boy Scout, The Long Kiss Goodnight), the film stars, as I've mentioned, Robert Downey Jr. (Chaplin, Natural Born Killers) and Val Kilmer (Real Genius, Top Gun, Willow), along with Michelle Monaghan (The Bourne Supremacy, Mission: Impossible III). Also appearing is Corbin Bernsen (The Dentist) and Larry Miller (Best in Show, A Mighty Wind).

Robert Downey Jr. plays the character Harry Lockhart, a small time New York criminal who falls bassackward into an acting gig after bungling a burglary and soon finds himself in the land of superficiality aka L.A., up for a role in a film as a private eye...well, sort of, but for more on that you'll have to watch the film. Anyway, along the way the producer that `discovered' Harry hooks him up with a real private eye and flaming homersexual named Gay Perry (Kilmer), who, when not doing his normal gumshoe routine or chasing sausage provides technical expertise to actors with regards to his profession. Soon after arriving Harry runs into a woman named Harmony Faith Lane (Monaghan), someone he grew up with in the Midwest and has now come west like so many others to be a star. Here's the thing, Harry had it bad for Harmony since way back when and seeing her again he finds his desire hasn't diminished over the years. Anyway, soon after meeting up with Harmony, things get seriously complicated as Harmony, believing Harry's a private detective (I guess telling a woman you've got the hots for you're a private eye sounds a lot better than telling her you're a two bit crook), hires Harry to find her little sister, who's come west for reasons revealed in the film. What follows is Harry, Harmony, and Perry becoming entangled in a completely outlandish series of events involving a homicide, gunplay, torture (electrical shocks to the genitals no less), an attempted frame-up, a severed finger, more gunplay, more homicides, a suicide, a wealthy heiress, some henchmen, some romance, bubble headed blondes, an errant corpse or two, a car chase, a flying coffin, police, various weirdoes, and so on...seriously, so much stuff happens it'd be a ridiculously poor effort on my part to provide an more detailed summary.

As I mentioned earlier I was hesitant to take on this film, but I'm really glad I did, as this is probably one of the best black comedy/action/mystery thrillers I've seen in awhile. Writer and first time director Shane Black manages wonderfully to take the essence of those pulpy fiction detective novels (which literally figure into the actual story) and fuse it with some modernly icky sensibilities in a kooky amalgam that never takes itself too seriously, the result being some kind of weird fusion that works and works well, for myself at least. Black does an outstanding job directing, especially given the amount of things thrown at the viewer in terms of twists and turns. Not only that, but the pacing seems to be stuck on warp speed, as viewers barely have time to catch their breathe. The only downside I could see where a couple of minor plot holes (how did Harry manage to shoot so well near the end of the film? It's not like he had extensive experience with firearms) and a few, menial continuity errors, but given the fact the feature kept me thoroughly engaged and entertained throughout, it was easy for me to overlook this aspects. I thought Downey, who supposedly cleaned up his personal issues, did a remarkable job in the main role, and I especially liked his narration, which, at times, became self aware as his character would make critical comments on the film itself. Could I have pictured someone else in his role? Yes, but I think few would have brought the controlled, manic energy he possessed. I also thought Kilmer did an excellent job as the gay, streetwise detective, and the pairing of him and Downey provided a weird and interesting chemistry that worked surprisingly well. I though the exchange below, which occurred after a stakeout that ended miserably and Perry's dropping Harry off at his apartment, adequately defines their sketchy hate/hate relationship...

Perry: Go. Sleep badly. Any questions, hesitate to call.

Harry: Bad.

Perry: Excuse me?

Harry: Sleep bad. Otherwise it makes it seem like the mechanism that allows you to sleep...

Perry: What, f***head? Badly's an adverb. Who taught you grammar? Get out. Vanish.

The rapid-fire dialog throughout the films snaps, crackles, and pops although if you're adverse to the excessive usage of profanity, you'll probably have a real problem with this film. I did find the final ending (there were a few) kind of sappy and unnecessary (it features the confrontation of a sickly, bed ridden man responsible, in a roundabout way, for a good deal of what happens in the story), but all in all I thought this a very sharp, entertaining, darkly humorous film that should have probably done better than it did when originally released, but will most certainly find it's audience now that it's been released to DVD. Given Black's obvious talent for direction, I hope he's planning on helming some more features in the future.

The picture, presented in widescreen (2.35:1) anamorphic, is sharp and clean, and the Dolby Digital Surround 5.1 audio, available in English, French, and Spanish, comes across strong and crisp. Special features include a gag reel, an entertaining commentary track with Downey, Kilmer, and writer/director Black, a theatrical trailer, and subtitles in English, French and Spanish.

Si vous cherchez un film très sérieux et très noir passez votre chemin, si vous cherchez un film totalement délirant et potache passez votre chemin. Ou alors il faut accepter le mélange de tout ça ;-). En tout cas, tout y est (acteurs, répliques, rythme, ...) et vraisemblablement tout le monde y a pris beaucoup de plaisir. Cela peut être totalement déstabilisant. A mon avis il y a deux avis à la suite de ce film : soit il fera partie de votre top 10, soit vous ne comprendrez vraiment pas comment on a pu oser vous conseillez ce film incompréhensible pour vous. En tout cas c'est un film culte pour moi.

Reviewed in Germany on August 11, 2010

...und manchmal verspeist ein Hund einen Finger!

Durch Zufall kommt der kleine Gauner Harry (Robert Downey jr.) nach Hollywood und soll einen Detektiv in einem Film spielen. Auf einer Party wird ihm der Privatdetektiv Perry (Val Kilmer) vorgestellt, der ihn auf seine Rolle vorbereiten soll. Er trifft außerdem seine Jugendfreundin Harmony (Michelle Monaghan) wieder, die auch versucht, in Hollywood Schauspielkarriere zu machen. Plötzlich wird Harry jedoch in zwei Morde verwickelt, die beide miteinander zusammenhängen. So nimmt eine immer verwirrendere Story ihren Lauf.
Erzählt wird sie von Harry selbst, der aus dem Off immer wieder Situationen kommentiert oder auch einfach die Geschichte noch einmal zurückspulen lässt, weil er vergessen hat etwas seiner Meinung nach ganz Wichtiges zu erwähnen. Der Film enthält einige Zeitsprünge, die es, neben der insgesamt schon recht komplexen Story, dem Zuschauer noch schwerer machen, den Faden nicht komplett zu verlieren. Ich kann mir gut vorstellen, dass diese verwirrende Erzählweise von vielen nicht so positiv aufgenommen werden wird, mir persönlich hat sie allerdings sehr gut gefallen.
Auch die Parallelität der Handlung des Films, zu den Jonny-Gossamer-Romanen - von denen Harmony ein großer Fan ist- ist eine originelle Idee, denn es wird des Öfteren über den Aufbau und Inhalt dieser Bücher geredet und so kann man eigentlich von vornherein wissen was im Film noch grob passieren wird, aber das fällt einem erst im Verlauf der Geschichte auf.
Desweiteren sind die aberwitzigen Dialoge zwischen Harry und Perry für mich eine der Stärken des Films. Kilmer und Downey jr. harmonieren sehr gut miteinander und sind sehr unterhaltsam, allerdings könnte einigen der Film dadurch zu dialoglastig sein. Der Film punktet bei mir auch durch einige sehr skurrile, komische Situationen, wie z.B. die Szene, in der Harry beim "Russischen Roulette" aus Versehen einen Menschen tötet und sagt, die Wahrscheinlichkeit hätte doch nur bei 8% gelegen, sofort von der ersten Kugel getroffen zu werden (genauso naiv wie die Antwort an sich sind auch die in ihr offenbaren Rechenkünste des Protagonisten, nach denen die Waffe mit 12,5 Patronen geladen sein müsste). Neben der Aufklärung der Morde und den damit einhergehenden Untersuchungen, ist die Beziehung zwischen Harry und Harmony ein zentrales Thema. Hier nimmt sich der Film Zeit, neben dem Witz näher auf die Personen einzugehen. Durch Rückblenden und andere Mittel erfahren wir vor allem über Harmonys Vergangenheit und Kindheit sehr viel und das meiste ist nicht sehr lustig (bei Harmony könnte man ja vermuten, dass es sich um einen sprechenden Namen handelt, aber er ist das genaue Gegenteil, denn der Name will so überhaupt nicht zur Person passen). Die Figuren bleiben nicht nur leere Hüllen, die ein paar lustige Sprüche raushauen können, sondern gewinnen an Tiefe.
So albern und schrullig der Film insgesamt ist, schlägt er jedoch im richtigen Moment einen etwas ernsthafteren Ton an, wenn es um Kindesmisshandlung durch den eigenen Vater geht. Bezüglich dieses Themas wandelt der Film auf einem schmalen Grat, aber in meinen Augen ist er souverän mit dieser Thematik umgegangen, ohne den Charakter einer Komödie zu verlieren.
Man sollte "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" insgesamt nicht zu ernst nehmen, denn das tut der Film mit sich selber auch nicht. Eine interessante Zusatzinfo ist übrigens, dass in den 60er Jahren James Bond in Italien Mr. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang genannt wurde.
Bei diesem Film handelt es sich um eine Parodie auf den Film Noir und Gangsterfilme ( "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" wird auch als Neo-Noir bezeichnet).
Vieles ist vermutlich absichtlich übertrieben und überspitzt dargestellt worden, um den Charakter der Parodie zu unterstreichen. So gibt es viele unrealistische Zufälle und Anspielungen auf andere Filme, wie z.B. "Herr der Ringe", oder es wird behauptet, Harry sei nur nach Hollywood geholt worden, damit man Colin Farrell bei der Gage drücken könne. Auch die unübersichtliche Story, der Erzähler und die vielen, vielen pseudo-coolen Sprüche ( die ich persönlich sehr unterhaltsam fand) sind parodistische Elemente und meiner Meinung nach, keineswegs der Übermotiviertheit des Regisseurs geschuldet, so wie einige Mitrezensenten meinen.
Wenn man sich darauf einlässt, dann kann man an diesem Film sehr viel Freude haben.
