The joke with Ryan Gosling going for the gun from his dream is top tier.
Just watched it tonight for about the twentieth time. The chemistry between Crowe and Gosling is just so good and the Shane Black plot keeps things moving and interesting. Add to that a wonderful turn by Angourie Rice as Gosling’s daughter.
It’s one of those few movies I have always been gutted that there isn’t a sequel to it.
“Ten years later, the cult of ‘The Nice Guys’ keeps growing” by Jake Coyle includes the passage “”The Nice Guys” has established itself as one of the most beloved comedies of the last decade.” And the last part is a link, so I’m curious, I click it, and it goes to “In a low period for comedy films, these were the best of the last decade” by Jake Coyle.

Ryan Gosling still is underappreciated for his comedic talents. Especially playing a beleaguered everyman. His screams in this are hilarious.
Nice Guys and Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang are up there on my list.
It’s funny, I feel Kiss Kiss Bang Bang that Shane Black also did before The Nice Guys was basically the same movie but better. Not to discredit The Nice Guys by any means, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is just that good.
some of the best physical comedy i’ve ever seen and one of the best noir plots ever written. idk how this movie will ever be topped
The fact this never got a sequel is beyond comprehensive
Oooh the *movie*, I read the headline very differently lol
This was the movie I discovered Gosling and his mastery of physical comedy.

I have watched this a dozen times and still crack up. It looked so effortlessly hapless.
Heard how nice it is here on this very sub so thanks r/movies for the rec!
the Gosling 10 second bit at the open bar crushes me every time I see it
Movie is hilarious
Sweetheart, how many times have I told you? Don’t say “and stuff”. Just say
“dad, there are whores here”.
