Who Doesn't Want Robert Downey Jr Narrating?

The film Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005) has that - Robert Downey Jr narrating, I mean. Which is really what makes it awesome. Because it's, in all honesty, not the strongest film out there. It even falters towards the end, story-wise, I would say.

Written as a novel by Brett Halliday and written for the screen as well as directed by Shane Black (who also was involved in writing the screenplay for Iron Man 3 (2013) and was the one who directed it) this is a humoristic action crime piece. It really has its moments and Robert Downey Jr and Michelle Monaghan really help making it enjoyable.

Above all this film is amusing. One has to assume that that is the main point of it because as far as comedy goes it's a really good one. It has its serious moments as well, though, and both Robert and Michelle handle them wonderfully.

Oh, and yes; it does have action. It is an action film, after all.

So, to sum it all up, this would be highly recommended to anyone who likes Robert Downey Jr's acting and humour and to those who enjoy the mixture of action and comedy - this here is a good one, folks!
