KISS KISS BANG BANG, or: CLEVER CLEVER SMUG SMUG

[Eel O'Brian]

I can't decide if I loved this movie or hated it.  I know I wanted to slap everyone involved at the end of it.

Sum up for me, I don't remember.

Clever Clever Smug Smug was Juno. Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang erred on the side of still being relevant.

But I have a massive hard-on for Val Kilmer, so whatev

Robert Downey Jr, wisecracking thief

Val Kilmer, wisecracking homosexual detective

corbin bernsen, grateful to be working

murder mystery, narrated by Downey, convoluted and self-referential to the point of stopping the film and rewinding several times

I liked it.  It really did feel in the same vein as a Lethal Weapon movie.  The very last scene was too much, though.  It's like he had to get one modern story conceit in there, and it was forced meta, and it was gay.

I liked it.  It would have been a hit if the studio actually fucking released it.  That movie was molested, man.

[brawndolicious]

it was funny and didn't really feel like it was trying to be too smug to me.  it seems honestly like a well-made comedy.

with a lot nice titties.

I also liked lethal weapon though.  The last time I watched it was 6 years ago.  How did they mess up this movie's release?

[CajoleJuice]

It's a really fun movie. I enjoyed it pretty damn thoroughly. But yeah, it gets a bit too clever for its own good.

[The Fake Shemp]

You shut your fucking mouth, Cajole.

[CajoleJuice]

I fucking like the movie! A LOT!

[Eel O'Brian]

I've decided I liked it.

I've decided I liked it.

I'd probably hate it if there were a bunch of movies like this coming out right now.  It's like I can only take so much of a particular flavor of smug in a given period.
