Disco Detectives

Rating: 7/10 (9 January 2017)

Plot; In 1977 Los Angels, a scuffling private eye and a low level enforcer get caught up in a case that will take them from high dollar world of automobiles to the gutters of the burgeoning adult film business.
Take the buddy cop genre and smash it together with Boogie Nights and you have Shane Black's The Nice Guys, a critical hit and subsequent commercial failure that deserved a better fate. Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe have great chemistry as two mismatched guys in over their heads. With laughs aplenty and a legitimately interesting mystery to boot, I hope more people give this worthy, quirky little comedy a chance on home video.
