Quotes

Harmony: You think I'm amazing. You do. Cause that's who I told you I'd be. That was the game plan.
Harry: Yeah, well, you know what, it worked.
Harmony: You know what? No one else thinks so.
Harry: What, my opinion doesn't count?
Harmony: Actually, no it doesn't. Cause you're new here. If you just look around, there's younger and there's better.
Harry: I don't want younger and better, I want you!

Extremely funny film noir spoof
21 September 2005 | by (Canada) – See all my reviews

I saw this movie at the 2005 Toronto Film Festival and expected it to be the typical film noir genre. This seemed to be the case for the first couple of minutes of narrative monologue before the jokes started coming fast and furious. This turned out to be a highly entertaining comedy/buddy film couched in a tongue in cheek film noir setting. The dialogue was witty and the chemistry between Robert Downey Jr and Val Kilmour was great. Some of the jokes went by so fast that I'll have to see this movie again to see what I missed as I was still laughing at the previous one. The director spoke before the movie and commented on how the producers were nervous about the risky choice of actors. This was a reference to Robert Downey Jr.'s past addiction problems, but this film proved that he was worth the risk. I saw 10 films at this year's film festival and this one was my favorite.
