Similarly to how Knives Out plays around with the whodunit genre, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang subverts the familiar tropes of noir films. Robert Downey Jr. stars as a two-bit criminal who finds himself smack-dab in the middle of a murder mystery, dragging along his childhood sweetheart, Harmony Lane (Michelle Monaghan), and hard-boiled private eye Perry van Shrike (Val Kilmer). Downey and Kilmer are a humourously mismatched pair who are as fun to watch as Craig's Detective Benoit Blanc and de Armas's Marta.
