This movie was the biggest surprise of 2016 for me. Excellent movie. Crowe and Gosling's comedic chops are outstanding. Keith David is also great in his small role.

I was reluctant to see it because the previews made it look like a cliche-ridden clownshow but man did I misread that.

This is probably common knowledge on this board but I highly recommend it. Top 5 flick from last year IMO. Just fun from start to finish. I'd love these two to do more action buddy flicks, they have great chemistry.

Legit funny-arse roles from Crowe and Gosling. The stall scene

My wife and I absolutely loved it. You are spot on with their comedic chops. Their chemistry really stood out

Don't get the love. Thought it started out terrible and hoped it would get better. It only got worse.

I laughed harder at this movie than any I've seen in a while. Gosling's reaction when he rolled down the hill and found the body had me rolling, great tip of the hat to Abbott and Costello.

i really really liked it, but if you haven't seen kiss kiss, bang bang, go track that down, shane black's first movie similar in tone to the good guys with robert downey jr. & val kilmer.

I actually prefer kiss kiss, bang bang. but the good guys was a hell of a lot of fun.

Nerdwriter1's breakdown of Violence in Movies and why Shane Black is the best at it.

Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang is better, but the Nice Guys is so good. Gosling's ?punch through the glass is hilarious.

There was some INCREDIBLY convenient stuff to advance the plot, but I still enjoyed it. Gosling and Crowe's chemistry was great. Gosling's daughter did a great job, too.

"Don't say 'Anal and stuff', just say Anal".

Loved the movie... This is one time I left the movie hoping for a sequel. Would love them to solve a case circa 1983 - 85.
