    Edit
    • Trivia
      As a show of support for Robert Downey Jr.'s recovery from alcohol and drugs, Val Kilmer refused to drink during the entire production.
    • Goofs
      When the camera zooms in on the newspaper article detailing the story about the film crew coming to the small town of Embry, Indiana to film a movie, the website www.embrystar.com is visible under the name of the newspaper. The article supposedly was written and published in 1982, eight years before the first website existed.
    • Quotes

      Perry: My $2000 ceramic Vektor my mother got me as a special gift. You threw in the lake next to the car. What happens when they drag the lake? You think they'll find my pistol. Jesus. Look up "idiot" in the dictionary. You know what you'll find?

      Harry: A picture of me?

      Perry: No! The definition of the word idiot, which you fucking are!

    • Crazy credits
      At the end of the movie, Val Kilmer says not to leave, to stay and watch the credits, and if you're wondering who the Best Boy is, he's someone's nephew. (The actual Best Boy credit is Jack Bauer.)

    Superb acting, great story, fantastic chemistry
    'Kiss Kiss Bang Bang' was definitely a fun one to view. The team of RDJ, Val, and Michelle have a chemistry that works very well on screen and the story develops well as the run time continues, creating an ever changing engagement to the plot from the audiences' perspective... Easily, Robert Downey Jr. is a fan favorite within the film. Viewing this movie for the first time while watching many other more recently released RDJ movies, it is clear to see how fantastic of an actor he is and how compelling he is as he demands attention with every word or action he projects. On the flip-side of things, he as the narrator made me laugh on multiple occasions... Comparing 'The Nice Guys' to 'Kiss Kiss Bang Bang', this film easily beats 'The Nice Guys' out in my book where I simply found this far more entertaining than it.

    A very comedic and compelling film for your viewing pleasure. Fun from start to finish yet very clever and intelligent as well.
