Set in the smoggy sprawl of 1970s Los Angeles, Shane Black’s (Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Iron Man 3) The Nice Guys stars Ryan Gosling stars as Holland March, a bumbling private eye barely keeping it together. When his path collides with Jackson Healy (Russell Crowe), a tough-as-nails enforcer with a knack for violence, the unlikely duo find themselves investigating the apparent suicide of a porn star and the disappearance of a young woman, leading to the unraveling of a conspiracy that winds from the seedy underbelly of Hollywood to the highest levels of power.
Fast, funny, and packed with action, The Nice Guys is a stylish throwback to mismatched-detective classics – a buddy-cop mystery / neo-noir comedy that’s laced with irreverent humor, outrageous set pieces, and two irresistible lead performances.
