Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Although it appears as a pilot for a TV series (since it screams for sequel(s)), this movie can remain "as is". It is fun to watch, most of the time something happens, some dark jokes and the "dynamic duo". Mr. Gosling finally shows his acting abilities (pretty good, for that matter) and Mr. Crowe' s art is not affected by aging. On the contrary. He does not have to be some Roman general to do his job with excellency. Story is a bit mumbo-jumbo, but direction is good. Also, the Australian girl (Angourie Rice) has a bright future, if she does not blow it. Yaya DaCosta is beautiful and Ms. Basinger still has it. All in all, worth your time. Go for it.
Horror
This film really started off well and it made me laugh. However after an hour or so the story just seems to drag and the jokes follow the same formula. Ryan gosling is pretty good in this and the film does have its moments but film just seems to drag in the later stages.

Some good laughs and wacky changes of fortune in this buddy comedy that works because Crowe and Gosling have good chemistry together. Sure there are way too many convenient coincidences in the plot and the ending goes a little over the top, but it was still fun and NOT another comic book movie, so give it a go.

'The Nice Guys (2016)' is an under-seen gem from Shane Black, a 'buddy-cop' detective comedy with a seventies setting and an eighties sensibility. It is highly entertaining throughout, with funny dialogue that feels natural to the characters, a well-told central mystery, an unconventional plot, a few genuinely laugh-out-loud moments and some great realistic action. It is a blast from beginning to end, one that only gets better on a second viewing. This is easily one of the most enjoyable films of 2016. 8/10
