Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2000) Reviews

• Far-out-there humour

  fight2003-07-24

  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.

• What a great crazy movie!

  Picked up this recent DVD release on a friend's recommendation. She was write it's very funny, a bit surreal with a great sound track. The story is nothing other than metal, a truly distinctive mind at work here. The film is vibrantly colourful and the characters though simple are well played and thought out. Particularily liked the Hitman character, very scary, very twisted. Hollywood would never fund a film like this. More the pity because it's funky and very original. Rent it, buy it, watch it. Your going to love it. In a word unforgetable!

• Silly fun and disturbing

  Kiss kiss bang bang is silly fun and disturbing, bouncing between quirky humour and playful perveness. Set in some yuppie enclave in suburban London (Clapham?). Several warped and clueless twenty something characters go about their individual pointless lives blissfully unaware that a wolf in sheep's clothing now lives amongst them. When the scheming Machiavellian type gets jealous, mayhem, rape and multiple murders ensue as a psycho takes out and seduces the locals. Very strange but memorable soundtrack, some good twists and very funny banter, with a very memorable if sometimes inaudible hit man raises this well above your average tele-movie of the week. A must for all Russ Meyer fans!

• 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!

• Very funny

  plinkerton_ip-12003-05-17

  This black comedy was a great surprise rental, loved the DVD cover, kind of retro Italian exploitation circa 1970. The film proved to be just as wacky with bizzare plot changes and hysterical scripting. Their was the occasional dark moments, the assault on the flat-mate was horrid and the pervy temple to Angelica creepy! Throughly recommended for lovers of the strange and the off-beat. A million miles away from the Directors other hit Boy Meets Girl 1994, ripe for a Hollywood remake, very funny.
