In 1987 Shane Black changed the face of cinema by making action movies more than just testosterone fueled set pieces to showcase muscles and pyrotechnics. His screenplay debut Lethal Weapon blended humor, complicated characters with...well...muscles and pyrotechnics. Nine years later he got a chance to not only write Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, starring Val Kilmer and Robert Downey Jr, but to direct it as well. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang not only includes all the elements that makes a Shane Black film great, but it's also a biting commentary on Hollywood, the system that made Shane Black who he is. Mike is a well-documented lover of everything punk, and in his eyes, there are few writers out there as punk rock as Shane Black! Will Allyson enjoy this dip into Shane Black's filmography as much as Mike? She grew up on the Lethal Weapon franchise and really enjoyed a screening they did of his 2016 unlikely action paring The Nice Guys.
