Tagline: SeX. MurdEr. MyStery. Welcome to the party.
Plot Outline
Simple story. A petty thief (Robert Downey Jr.) posing as an actor is brought to Los Angeles for an unlikely audition and finds himself in the middle of a murder investigation along with his high school dream girl (Michelle Monaghan) and a detective (Val Kilmer) who's been training him for his upcoming role.
Overall Impressions:
Tongue in Cheek, Very impressive narrative, editing & dialogue. Downey steals the show. Kilmer is functional as the gay detective. The rest of the credit has to go to the writing. Shane Black who previously brought us Lethal Weapon (The first two) is back in action. It reminds us of the flavour of film we seem to have lost over the years. The plot is however quite complex & may require a second viewing, not that this is necessarily a bad thing. Its one I've been keenly anticipating a long while - though stil a bit baffled by the plot outcome, I'm impressed.
Will be going to see this on Thursday with he-who-may-not-be-talked-about.
You should have a clear rating system, like stars or pies or something, so I can get an idea of whether you like a film or not without having to do any of that annoying "reading" stuff.
yeah, you are a bit vague as to weather a films "good" or not i hate your web site because of this!
fair comments - but the ambiguity is usually what i feel. i take a film i like & try to criticise it. i take a film i didn't like & still try to find its better points. the entire point is the read (& the pretty poster i guess) if you can't be bothered with it .. & as for a rating, click the link of the title & see the imdb rating from others ...
i don't think there would be any point in me rating coz it varies over time .. besides i'd give almost everything 3 out of 5 ..
