The nice guys
If your heading past a multiplex and have a few quid or so to spare then you could do a lot worse than give this a few hours of your time. Its almost vintage Shane Black with a wicked script full of great buddy dialogue with two mis-matched, flawed but generally nice blokes stumbling across a mystery that involves two of seventies Americas bigest industries, porn and automobiles.
I dont want to say too much but if you liked Blacks other output like Last boyscout, kiss kiss bang bang, leathal weapon ect then you will likely enjoy this. Probably the most enjoyable film Russel crowe has been in for some time and Ryan Gosling proves he has some comedic skills in his role as a drunken asshole/private eye. I thouroughly enjoyed it.
