16 Must-See Movies for 2016

8. The Nice Guys (May 20, Silver Pictures)

For those looking for something that isn’t a franchise, this could be worth a look. Writer/director Shane Black is an interesting Hollywood story. His script for the first Lethal Weapon film was widely credited with reinventing the action movie for the late 80’s. His first directorial effort, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, was a wonderfully goofy L.A. noir which was instrumental in getting Robert Downey Jr. back into the spotlight. This shaggy private-eye story boasts a 70’s L.A. setting and Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe in the leads and could be a nice antidote for those sick of capes.
