Entertaining

Rating: 8/10 (15 August 2016)

Greetings from Lithuania.
"The Nice Guys" (2016) is sometimes hilariously funny, sometimes to much focused on unnecessary things, but always entertaining. Script by Shane Black was good, not original, but good for what it is. Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling have great chemistry together and interaction between these two really work. Action scenes were good and almost always darkly funny - very funny actually. Now there are some unfocused plot elements that prevented me to giving this truly entertaining movie higher score, nevertheless if you like "Lethal Weapon" series, you should definitely watch "The Nice Guys".
Overall, "The Nice Guys" is good, fun entertainment. Seeing Kim Basinger and Russell Crowe together again on screen (even for a short time) since classical "L.A. Confidential" was very pleasant - they have some great chemistry together on screen which is simply hard to explain. Still, not everything worked in "The Nice Guys" superbly well, nevertheless this is a fun entertainment with far more positive then negative.
