74: The Nice Guys (2016)

The Nice Guys is a 2016 action-comedy mystery film directed by Shane Black and co-written with Anthony Bagarozzi, starring Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling as an unlikely detective duo in 1977 Los Angeles. The film follows Jackson Healy (Crowe), a tough enforcer-for-hire, and Holland March (Gosling), a down-on-his-luck private investigator and single father, as they team up to solve the case of a missing young woman named Amelia. What begins as a simple job spirals into a larger conspiracy involving the adult film industry, a corrupt auto manufacturer, and the U.S. Department of Justice. With stylish 1970s production design, witty dialogue, and a perfect balance of slapstick humor and noir mystery, The Nice Guys shines thanks to the outstanding chemistry between Gosling and Crowe, as well as a standout performance by Angourie Rice as March’s perceptive and grounded daughter, Holly. Beneath the comedy and chaos, the film explores themes of government corruption, corporate greed, and redemption through fatherhood. Despite critical acclaim and a 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it underperformed at the box office, leaving a sequel unlikely. Nevertheless, the film has since earned a loyal cult following for its originality, charm, and sharp satirical edge.Now, with a comedy so beloved, I bet you’re asking if your three hosts liked this comedy?
