Hands down one of the most underrated comedies of the 2010’s that doubles pretty damn well as a top notch buddy cop movie. Gosling and Crowe rock together

The amount of times people tell me they haven't seen this film is a shame. It's so much funnier than most comedy films made today and it all feels natural with a slick mystery at the heart of it.

Ryan to me is at his best in a comedy. He’s a great dramatic actor but there’s something inherently hilarious about him. I think he was the class clown how got to become a movie star.

The Nice Guys also had one of my all time favorite performances of a child character in Holly. She was so endearing, sincere and funny in the movie without feeling like an adult written into a child's body or a kid played by an adult. Angourie Rice also had fantastic chemistry with the two leads

I loved nice guys. I would kill to see a sequel/series based on it

We need a sequel and stuff.

I watched this movie on a plane just to kill time, much to the chagrin of the poor lady next to me who I kept waking up with my poorly-stifled laughter. Can't believe I discovered one of my favorite movies years after it was released, and by total accident. I really hope we get a much deserved sequel.

that's a pretty clickbaity title. like did we actually get an explanation as to why it didnt get a sequel. i got to the end of the video and realised that was never a point that got explored, it just talked about the making of the movie

There could still be a sequel...let's keep the hope alive because this masterpiece deserves it

ryan gosling is one of those actors that really becomes the character. i’ve watched almost all of his films and i’ve never once felt like i was watching ryan gosling the actor. he makes it so easy to lose yourself in whatever movie he’s in because his acting is just that seamless. are there any other films like the nice guys? i watched kiss kiss bang bang and i enjoyed it as well.

It's nice to see more people watching and giving The Nice Guys the love it deserves

On one hand it makes me sad how many people haven't watched this film, on the other its always a treat to get to introduce them to this gem. No one's ever been bored or disappointed by it. Really hope they get around to making a follow-up.

I recently discovered this absolute gem of a movie and now I am obsessed with it and pray for there to one day be a sequel to it.🙏🏾

The Nice Guys is a rare example of a perfect movie, we all have our favorite films we watch from time to time but then we get up and go about our day. The nice guys is different however. I can watch this film repeatedly on loop and be just as entertained if not even more so the more i watch it. Its up there with the likes of Shawshank redemption or The Departed or Goodfellas and Seven Psychopaths. Its a warcrime we never got a sequel to this movie. If i woke up tomorrow a billionaire i'd fund a sequel myself.

Shane Black's "The Nice Guys" fits in as a highlight in a period L.A. slacker noir marathon with The Coen Bros' "Big Lebowski", Tarantino's "Once Upon A Time In Hollywood", and PT Anderson's "Inherent Vice". For an even more acid noirish fun time, throw in Terry Gilliam's "Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas" and Oliver Stone's "U-Turn". Maybe even graduate to Tony Scott's "Domino", Joe Carnahan's "Smokin' Aces", and Michael Bay's "Pain & Gain" to top off a full weakend of gonzo crime farces.

My brother and I saw this opening night. We were the only two in the theater and had a blast!

This was such a great movie. Massively underrated. It’s a shame there hasn’t been a sequel yet. Thanks for doing this video 👏

It’s my favorite movie of the last 20 years. It’s use of characters is so fantastic even the tiny roles are pure gold. Chet and the Bike Kid are hilarious.

God I loved this movie. Nice Guys, Drive, La La Land, The Notebook, Blade Runner, Barbie. Gosling can do no wrong!

It feels like Nice Guys has been on a bit of a run the past few months and I personally love it. Nice Guys has always been one of my favorites and I've recommended it to about everyone I know. I'm glad it's getting that second look and people are appreciating it for the great movie it was.

This is definitely one of a handful of comedies from the last decade that I always will be able to watch again...

I am so happy this movie is getting the respect and admiration It deserves, we really should’ve gotten a sequel.

It is funny seeing Gosling in Goosebumps and Are You Afraid Of The Dark?

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and The Nice Guys are two of the greatest comedies of the 21st century, and criminally underrated. So few people have heard of them, and yet everyone I've ever recommended them to has had nothing but positive feedback. The Nice Guys' commercial failure is one of the biggest tragedies in recent movie history. Re the Ian Fleming thing, they actually used the line as the basis for the best Bond theme that never was- Shirley Bassey's Mr Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, which was eventually replaced by Tom Jones' Thunderball (an instrumental arrangement can still be heard in the movie)

That's awesome that he mentioned Abbot & Costello, because at about 15min in to Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein, Lou sees the candle on the coffin move and "tries" to whistle for Abbot/Bud...a scene that Gosling mimicked when finding the dead body after taking his tumble over the party house balcony. A scene that I recognized instantly since I was (still am) a huge fan of the Abbott and Costello films growing up. Never seen anyone mention the similarities before, but hearing him say he was a fan, I know that it was an intentional homage to Lou Costello's comic genius. And gotta say, that arm break scream that Gosling does gets me every time! Brilliantly done, perfect! Thanks for reviewing this severely under-rated gem of a movie! It might be a long shot but maybe if all involved want a sequel, maybe just maybe it can happen! I sincerely hope so!

Ryan Gosling is just a great actor in general, it doesnt matter what type of genre you throw at him, he will kill it

literally one of my favorite movies of all time. gosling and crowe just hit the nail so insanely square on the head. especially reading through the original script, you really get such an appreciation for how it all came together in the end. a shame it's almost definitely not getting a sequel, but then maybe it's okay to just have this perfect little parcel as it is. i will be recommending and rewatching this movie until i'm dead in the grave.

You’re telling me that one guy did: Lethal weapon The last boyscout The last action hero Kiss kiss bang bang And The nice guys?!!! These are all crazy entertaining and re-watchable movies. Just wow!

It becomes increasingly apparent that so many film makers in Hollywood have no idea about what is quality. There are endless remakes of superhero films and car chase films but that only caters to a niche population. In reality, the cinema-going audience could be more diverse if a wider range of films were commissioned but the studios won't take sufficient risks. Last year, post pandemic, there were a large number of films that tempted me to watch them at the cinema, in 2023 far fewer. The Nice Guys is a perfect gem. It appeals to all ages (I'm 66) and types of people. It has wit and heart and is not formulaic. As a period piece it is perfect.

There is absolutely no question in my mind that Gosling was his funniest in The Big Short. He is an incredibly versatile actor and I am glad that he is now getting his recognition post Barbie for this.

It’s about time someone talk about this movie, criminally underrated

I had no idea this movie existed till i found it on streaming and as watching i was so confused how i had never heard of it. Such a cool movie! I’ve watched it two more times since thinking the same thing

If there is any sequel that should be made, It's _The Nice Guys._ Better for studios to sacrifice ten superhero movies for one sequel of this film. The chemistry of Crowe and Gosling was perfect.

Became one of my favourite movies of all time. When Ryan cuts his hand on the window gets me every time. Russell acting large isn't too surprising if you've seen Virtuosity one of his earlier movies as the villain absolutely feasts on the scenery.

I always think of Michael Cane in The Muppets Christmas Carol when it comes to actors who took a film outside of their norm, though I guess it isn't so much a shift in his style, since he played it as straight faced as if he were acting with humans. Bryan Cranston is another notable one, though obviously he made the opposite transition of hilarious and slapstick comedy to Walter White. This film was amazing though. I knew with the scene with Ryan Gosling slicing his arm open, that I was in for a really special comedy. As they say, comedy is very often misery for the main characters.

The Nice Guys is up there with Snatch as one of my favorite movies of all time.

Criminally underrated flick. I rewatched recently and I don't think this movie wastes a second of film.

My second favorite film of all time (first being Good Will Hunting). Will love a sequel. Hot Take - Gosling is a better comedic actor than drama actor and he’s Oscar worthy in both genres

All of the trailers said "from the Director of Iron Man 3," personally, I think that it would have been more enticing to see "from the writer of Lethal Weapon"

Love Gosling and Crowe. Both great actors. And this movie cracks me up every time I watch it. I just watched First Man again last night and I wasn’t watching Ryan Gosling. I was watching Neil Armstrong. Great actors disappear in the role.

The nice guys is one of my favorite movies of all time, it’s pure genius

The last Russel Crowe performance that is actually really great and memorable

Lars and the Real Girl was by far my fave film of his, but The Nice Guys was sooo funny and fully deserved a sequel. Crowe and Gosling were both stellar and had awesome chemistry

One of my favorite films and hands down one of the best films in the last ten years. I have a collection of 300+ movies and it’s always my go to recommendation.

I am so happy i saw this in theatres. It was my movie of the year that year and is way up there for fav movies of all time.

The nice guys is genuinely one of the funniest movies I have ever seen.

This and "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang", are some of the most underrated films out there. Absolute gold, both of them. It really should get a sequel of sorts. I imagine Gosling and Crow both had a good time making it. I genuinely miss films like this, properly enjoyable buddy pieces. Anyone stumbling onto my comment, check out John Woo's "The Killer", which is also an amazing buddy movie, though without the comedy. Well, much less comedy.

Still one of my favorite movies to this day. Ive watched it countless times, which I can only say that about like 2-3 other films

This beautifully edited! Great synopsis and execution with a film with wit, dark humour and themes, dressed in a crime/comedy buddy action thriller done well.

hands down one of my most underatted performances.

Great movie. Ryan's Lou Costello homage moment is brilliant.

KISS KISS BANG BANG AND THE NICE GUYS ARE ONE OF A KIND FILMS.NEVER SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THOSE EVER SINCE

We need more of this type of support to where a sequel gets made! The Nice Guys gets better and funnier the more you watch it, esp Gosling physical comedy 😂😂😂

I was JUST going to buy this movie on DVD. It is definitely my favorite Ryan Gosling movie, I really enjoy it. It’s fun and hilarious. I find it unique and creative really, and Ryan is just great at what he does. Love his character in this film along with Russell Crowe.

I freaking loved this film. The duo is amazing together. The writing was fun and i can’t get enough of anything 60s 70s culture /era in the USA

Lebowski ushered in this modern genre twist. Also includes Inherent Vice Seven Psychopaths. All films I enjoy. Would love to see more of this.

I remember going to this movie in the theaters, opening weekend no less, and it was maybe 10 at this showing. I was shocked but I loved this movie

Easily one of my fav movies, such a sleeper hit.

This is still one of my top 10 movies of all time

This is just one of my favorite movies ever, I love the athmosphere, the chemistry between actors, the characters are great, I just need a sequel. Like was said in the video, movies like these are not made anymore and I miss this, just a simple story with charismatics characters that I can relate.

I love The Nice Guys! I sort of stumbled upon it by accident while looking for something to watch during the pandemic, and then mentally kicked myself for not having watched it sooner. It was superb comedy and had great chemistry between Gosling and Crowe that made their partnership entertaining to watch. That recommendation to set it in the 70s was a stroke of genius too, because it gave the story that needed level of seediness and gives the movie added stakes because all of the evidence is exclusively on physical copies, not digital or easily replicated. Other great dramatic actors that excelled in comedic roles are Robert DeNiro in Meet the Parents/Mett the Fockers, James Caan in Elf, and Tom Cruise in Tropic Thunder. Conversely, comedic actors like Jim Carrey, Steve Carrell, Adam Sandler, Sacha Baron Cohen, Jonah Hill and Brian Cranston turned in stellar performances in dramatic roles too.

Just rewatched this the other day. Movie is criminally underrated.

The high quality daily uploads is impressive thank you

I would love a sequel to this

One of my all time favorite movies!

i watched this movie a few weeks ago and was pissed i some how never heard of a movie this amazing

As an action Christmas movie, The Long Kiss Goodnight is the true spiritual successor to Diehard. Definitely an underrated action film.

I randomly picked The Nice Guys on Netflix for movie night the other day and was caught completely off guard. I hadn’t expected to watch my favourite comedy of all time that night!

The Dirty Harry films are also in contemporary California, which was the 1970s.

One of my favorite movies

This movie was so good, it's sad to not see it get the respect it deserved. I'd love to see these two play together again.

The internet showed me this movie exists and it hilarious Ryan is very versatile

4:24 don't forget Gosling's greatest piece of dramatic work, "Papyrus".

I LOVED Nice Guys. Everyone had such brilliant chemistry.

rewatched this recently, and it still holds up, it's really great

I watch this film every year. It's probably my number 1 favourite movie.

Truly one of my favorite movies ever. Top 10. I've watched it at least that many times, too.

This film is an undercover gem 💎

one of my faves. even without a sequel i'm glad we got to have it at all.

This is a great movie with good trama, natural jokes and two amazing actors giving live perfectly to some random dudes. For me it's amazing seen Gosling outside the "pretty boy" roles, and making something this fun, just like in Barbie's. I think is worth mentioning to Leslie Nielsen, being a romantic actor he suddenly became part in one of the best franchises of comedy movies in "The naked gun".

The Nice Guys is just such an amazing movie, I really hope we get another one!

Excellent movie...worth rewatching every few years. Actually like now, come to think of it...

Just rewatched nice guys recently. Love this movie!

This movie had me in stitches in the theater. Gosling is my favorite actor of his gen.

The fact that the critics gave this a higher score than the audience is wild. Usually the only time that ever happens is if the movie is super niche and trying to be smarter than it actually is. But in this case, it’s most definitely not trying to do any of that and works spectacularly. Definitely my favorite Gosling film

I absolutely loved this movie

Wow I just saw this tonight completely unrelated to the video it was great. I also got recommended THE OTHER GUYS right after and watched it as well.

One of my all time favs. An other from that list is The Long Kiss Goodnight ...

Absolutely love the Nice Guys. A neo-noir comedy? Right up my alley. Right along with Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang it's my favorite of the genre and another great pairing of top tier talent. Shane Black is a master for that kind of material.

The long kiss goodnight is also a great film, I've loved it since I saw it on TV in the 90s

Because of the lack of hype around this movie, i didn't go in expecting much. When Ryan tries to break the window and slits his wrist 2 minutes in i fucking fell in love

I just rewatched this movie 2 nights ago. Super grest movie, wish they woulda done a sequel.

The nice guys is by far my favorite comedy movie in made in the 21st century. I really hope they do a sequel soon before they age out of the ability to do it.

I saw this in theatres and it was my favorite film in 2016 and really hope we get a sequel

Still exited for "The Big Short 2"

I love this film, I'm definitely would look forward to another story with these characters

I Can always tell when people take my movie recommendations when I tell them about this movie, if they watched it, they love it, if they didn’t, they never speak of it

This reminds me of In Bruges in the sense that it's a fantastically done movie in almost all regards but never got the mainstream appeal.

Dude that arm breaking scene in the house, the toilet scene and the elevator at the end of the movie 🎥

6:11 Gosling's scream always cracks me up!
