Three DeBaser reviews examine Shane Black's taste for neo-noir and comic violence. Critics note rapid, Tarantino-aping dialogue, frenetic editing, and ironic voice-over. Performances (Downey Jr., Kilmer, Crowe, Gosling) receive positive mentions amid stylistic reservations.

For:Fans of neo-noir, dark comedies and pulpy detective films; viewers who like sardonic dialogue and Hollywood satire.

 Perry: Look up “idiot” in the dictionary. You know what you’ll find? Harry: A picture of me? Perry: No! The definition of the word "idiot", which you fucking are!
