PROUD PARENTS!

The Nice Guys

Set in 70s LA, alcoholic mess of a father Holland March (Ryan Gosling) and muscle-for-hire Jackson Healy (Russel Crowe) must work together to solve the death of porn star Misty Mountains. This movie really solidified my theory that every buddy-cop movie is either a father-son passing the torch kinda deal or…homoerotic. The Nice Guys is on the side of homoerotic. Maybe not erotic. But it is gay with a side of co-parenting. The introduction to each character does a perfect job of telling you who they are. From Healy’s first punch at a real creep to March’s exit out of the bathtub fully clothed. Right from the first interaction between March and Healy, we know they’re gonna make a great team whether they like it or not. "you just gave up your client" "i made a discretionary revelation" "no you gave her up. I ask you one simple question, you gave me all the information" "I thought that's what you wanted" Shit’s hilarious The story is great as well. We start with a simple case of seemingly mistaken identity but realize there’s so much more to this case but it never becomes over complicated. And one thing I really like is how well they do that whole “mentioning something off handedly and bringing it back later” but I’m not entirely sure if it counts as Chekov’s Gun in this instance. All I know is Killer Bees are mentioned in March’s introduction scene and then again a few more times. They do it with other things that are more important to the plot too and it’s so great when you go back for to rewatch it and notice those callbacks from earlier in the movie. I love shit like that and The Nice Guys does it so well. Speaking of callbacks, co-parenting. Other than Healy and March’s hilarious banter, I love seeing the way their…”friendship” and business-partnership develop. I mean, Healy starts by punching March in the face and ending by essentially being Holly’s second (and more responsible?) dad. And it’s obvious Holly comes to trust him more too which is fuckin adorable. And even in their marketing, they did vids called COUPLES THERAPY ?! I mean…how am I not meant to read their relationship as gay dads ??? Overall, this movie was a fuckin masterpiece and absolutely deserved a sequel. Every person that I’ve shown it to has liked it without fail from my friends to my mom who doesn’t even like violence all that much which this has plenty of. In her words “that was a very silly movie but in a surprisingly fun way.” I think it’s important to know that, from the moment the credits started rolling, I opened up ao3 to look for fics. And if none of this is enough to convince anyone who hasn’t seen it to watch the movie, idfk what is.

Just me or is knowing that Cady Heron from Mean Girls, in the new movie, is played by the same actress (Angourie Rice) that plays Ryan Gosling's daughter in The Nice Guys hilarious.
