Suggested viewing

Stuck in a country where you can't see Iron Man and don't want to settle for watching a grainy pirated version? Of course you're not. But if you've already seen the film and are craving more Robert Downey Jr. action (minus the random nose bleeds), I would highly recommend checking out 2005's Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. Directed by Shane Black of Lethal Weapon fame and also starring Van Kilmer (hilarious as private eye Gay Perry), it's a murder mystery comedy thriller film noir spoof that's just too unique and quirky to be written off as mindless. Crass, fun, laugh-out-loud funny, and can't-miss cinema. If I had two little Ebert e-thumbs they'd be in the air right now.
