"Look on the bright side. Nobody got hurt." - Hilarious and visually authentic!

Rating: 9/10 (19 May 2016)

The talented Shane Black brings us back several decades with a very unique but authentic looking film.
His latest flick - The Nice Guys - looks like it could have been released in the 70's, just with upgraded visuals. This along with a swinging soundtrack makes both my eyes and ears happy. :)
More-so, I had a blast! I think it's the first time I laughed this much in a theater and it's a film I didn't expect this much humor from, honestly. Shane Black's glorious writing/directing along with Ryan Gosling's perfect execution made for HILARIOUS laugh out loud moments. However, Ryan wasn't the only one standing out in this flick, Russel Crowe and Angourie Rice were just as awesome. Others like Keith David and Beau Knapp with relatively 'smaller' roles packed quite a punch too. But still, these are accomplished actors while on the other side it was the first time I ever heard about Angourie Rice whom felt very mature and talented for her age. She kicked ass as Holly March (literally)!
The young miss Rice is someone we should be on the lookout for, I am sure we will be seeing more of her in the near future.
Mr. Black certainly succeeded in bringing us a fresh buddy film and I very much recommend The Nice Guys! Guaranteed fun for young and old.
9/10
