The Nice Guys (2016)

Although I’d probably be interested in reading/seeing another story featuring these two main characters, this movie didn’t do nearly enough with them. The whole affair felt disjointed -- brutal murders sitting right alongside complete silliness -- and jokes that should’ve gotten big laughs just sort of sat there. Whoever edited the trailer should’ve been given a shot at editing the movie as well as I genuinely had more fun watching those highlights than the film itself.
