This film is about Harry a petty thief that becomes involved in a murder investigation with Gay Perry (a private investigator) and Harmony (his high school sweetheart and wannabe actress), where bodies seem to be piling up. Harry pretends to be a private eye and promises Harmony to help find her sisters murderer. The plot is full of twists and turns to find out the full story.

I really enjoyed this film and was convinced, due to its ironic and sarcastic humor, that it was written by British writers or at least heavily influenced by British comedy. It is in fact co-written and directed by Shane Black, an American screen writer.

I'm not use to seeing Val Kilmer (Gay Perry)in a comedy but he carries off the sarcastic humor very well and you cant help but like him. His lines get funnier the more you watch the film and are very memorable.
Kilmer and Robert Downey Jr are a great double act in this film and their partnership is complemented very well with the neurotic and scatty character Harmony, played brilliantly by Michelle Monaghan.

Overall, I rate this film highly and would recommend it to anyone.
