The Nice Guys (2016)

Too many things going on

It's a "buddy film" about two mismatched men on the trail of a woman, together with the daughter of one of them.

The film is sort of entertaining for a bit, but after an hour I was hoping it would just end soon. There are too many things going on, too many plot elements, and sometimes it tries to be funny, then sometimes it's violent action.

The two lead characters and the daughter are given too many personality quirks, and having so many different things going on became just a kind of noise which doesn't really make sense, and I stopped being interested in the story of Amelia.
