    Thought this would be dreadful, what a surprise!

    I read such contradictory comments on this film that I decided to check it out myself. I thought that it would be dreadful, what a surprise! Once you get your head round the kitchy Art Work that makes it look like some kind of seventies Italian exploitation film and the slow start, if you make it that far you're in for a treat. It is a very strange film indeed, the music is the first thing I noticed, the sound track seems to have been selected with a wry sense of humour, very tongue in cheek, very unusual, towards the end it had me completely hooked, don't know if the sound track is available on CD. The story is your classic boy meets girl and proceeds to go wrong and murder and mayhem ensue. Lots of very unexpected twists and very strange characters. Particularily liked the mini horror film scene, creepy and memorable. On the whole a highly enjoyable film. I can understand why it's had it's detractors though. It's quite insane and if you like your films logical and glossy this would be a dissapointment. I like the eclectic and the bizarre so Kiss Kiss Bang Bang get my highest vote. Ten out of Ten. More please!

    a must see!!

    Where is this movie? I saw in on the opening night here in London and I have not seen it since in the Cinema or on Video. It's a real strange one with a few good twists and I really want to see it again myself. Also I think it is a MUST see for anybody who likes a film with a bit of "substance" to it.

    Far-out-there humour

    Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is a very strange movie, it kicks off lick a romantic comedy from the fifties, moves swiftly into serial killer territory, bounces between farce and surreality, to land in gritty noir murder and black comedy. I can say quite seriously I never really new what was coming next, eclectic and sublime! Ten outta Ten.

    A skillful combination of humour and action, wonderfully different

    A great combination of humour and action, with several wonderfully unexpected twists, the cinematography is fantastic, with very dynamic hand held shots some very amusing camera angles. Saw it on video, didn't see it out in the cinema's? A clever plot, strong cast and London as you've never seen it before. Watch out for those creepy neighbours!

    An Emotional Experience

    Having seen this film I can now say that my life is complete. The complex, and indeed entirely pointless storyline and character arcs of the subjects are displayed to the audience in such a way as to almost be called Brechtian! In no way did the shakey under developed sets and complete lack of acting destroy my brains ability to be completely fried by the storyline's staggering ineptitude.

    I cried whilst watching this film, not from the emotion conveyed to me by the actors, but by the fact that clever, intelligent people who never meant any harm to anybody invented the technology that this has been preserved upon, for all time. Though rather like many other inventions over the past two hundred years, it hasn't taken somebody very long to come up with something horrifically awful to do with it.

    I believe that this film is available to buy on DVD in stores up and down the land. I would recommend that you do not throw away your money this way instead do something more useful with it, like buying a litre of used engine oil and drinking it whilst watching Last of the Summer Wine and listening to Elton John's Candle in the Wind, again and again.

    I said at the beginning of this review that my life was complete after watching this film and indeed it is. Now I can go through a back catalogue of films that I thought were poor, but now I am able to watch them in a new light. Thank you Ray Brady, now where did I put Remo Williams: Unarmed and Dangerous.
