Where has this movie been all my life? In the realm of underrated cinematic obscurity, most likely. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is yet another witty crime yarn that plays straight to writer and director Shane Blacks strength. The script is a lolly scramble of hilarious banter and oddball situations, with forth-wall-breaking moments thrown in for good measure. Downey, Monaghan and Van Kilmer deliver each line with moxie (some 1950s slang for ya). Though the flamboyant lighting and jazzicise score gives the film a strange ’90s straight-to-TV movie feel, KKBB deserves the praise it got, and the attention it never got.
