Why watch the movie The Nice Guys?
"Within the genre of buddy comedies, one of the obligatory references is the action saga 'Lethal Weapon', which stands out beyond Richard Donner’s direction for Shane Black's script in the first three installments. Black eventually made his debut as a director in the same genre with the entertaining ‘Kiss Kiss Bang Bang’, which repeats the formula of the mismatched pair wrapped up in a murder investigation. As one should not fix something that isn't broken, the director went back to the drawing board with 'The Nice Guys', which sees an awkward, failed, and cowardly detective (Ryan Gosling, in one of his best and most entertaining roles) collaborating with a tough and experienced thug (Russell Crowe) to solve the murder of an adult movie actress. The film, although slightly longer than necessary, is an incredibly fun journey from start to finish, with well-developed characters, hilarious performances, and solid direction from Black, who manages to inject new life into the genre."
