Any movie that contains an argument over the phone about why someone has urinated on a dead body he finds in his hotel room shower deserves some attention. Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang is one of the most entertaining movies of the year. Part Hollywood satire and part dime-store novel this is great fun with terrific performances from Robert Downey Jr. and Val Kilmer. Simply put folks, this is the best comedy of 2005.
Harry Lockhart (Robert Downey Jr.) is a small time thief who stumbles into an audition for a detective show while fleeing from the police.

Larry takes Harry on a stakeout to teach him more about detective work, but unfortunately they run into a car with a dead body. For reasons to difficult to describe here the two abandon the body only for Larry to find it in his hotel room shower early the next morning.

Is Waiting… great cinema? Well no, but it’s damn funny. A perfect vehicle for Ryan Reynolds, with some wonderful supporting performances, in much the same vein of his title role in National Lampoon’s Van Wilder. A nice little comedy that’s well worth checking out.
One joke told over and over for ninety minutes. It may be fair to say that The Aristocrats is the funniest documentary ever made; it is easily one of the most profane. To be completely honest the film is a little uneven; there are more than a few slow points, but when the joke is given to the right comedian prepare to roll around the aisle in tears. I laughed my ass off!
