Entertainment Weekly
The deliriously enjoyable noir comedy-thriller Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang does nothing by halves and everything by doubles. - 80
Film Threat
One of the coolest and most memorable films of 2005 – I just want to see it again. - 80
L.A. Weekly
Snappy, fun and outrageously irreverent, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is the work of someone with nothing to lose, which is only to the audience's gain. - 75
Rolling Stone
Shane Black creates a movie that is defiantly smartass and too cool for the room. I couldn't have liked it more. - 75
ReelViews
Robert Downey Jr. is perfect as Harry. He brings the right mix of cynicism, self-doubt, and unpretentiousness. - 70
The Hollywood Reporter
Downey and Monaghan are wonderful at playing characters that compensate for the harshness of their past with flippant swaggers. - 70
Variety
Once again making a diverting but insubstantial movie look better than it is, Downey, with haggard charm to burn, is winning all the way. Kilmer is riotous at times as an impeccably groomed, businesslike guy keen to assert his orientation at every opportunity. - 70
The A.V. Club
Black's sadistic streak remains as uncomfortable as it ever was, and his direction is very much in the house style of producer Joel Silver. But both elements perfectly suit the material, which sneaks in a lot of sly stuff beneath the slick surface.
