**Kiss Kiss Bang Bang’s excellent acting, script, and writing are held back by its annoying and avoidable language and nudity.**

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is a clever and unique mystery movie with brilliant writing, dialogue, and acting weighed down by unnecessary and excessive language and nudity. Seriously, I would love this movie if you cut out all the f-bombs and nakedness. Robert Downey Jr. basically auditions for Iron Man with his manic and witty performance, and his unlikely friendship with Val Kilmer’s character is highly entertaining and hilarious. Characters break the fourth wall several times throughout, keeping the movie comical and fresh. I really wanted to like this movie more, but the crass language and needless nudity hold Kiss Kiss Bang Bang back from being a holiday regular.
