i have see this film probably a dozen time since it be originally release theatrically . anyone who call this movie trash or horrible just doesn not understand action film or recognize a good one . perhaps to some the incident and outcome may seem far fetched and but in my opinion screenwriter shane black ( lethal weapon or kiss kiss bang bang ) craft one of the most well think out action adventure you will ever come across . over the top or not this film flow like clockwork and the action just keep come . the final action sequence be one of the best i have ever see in any film . the cast in this film crackle . genna davis give a tremendous performance and it a damn shame there be never a lkg sequel . samuel l. jackson be hilarious a her sidekick mitch a down on his luck private eye try to help her discover her lose past and make a few buck . if baffle me how anyone could not like this film . it pack so many thrill and it so funny . the wisecrack in this film still make me laugh just as hard 10 year later . in my mind the first matrix film and the long kiss goodnight be easily 2 of the best and most original action flick of the 90 . incidentally shane black make a fortune when he sell this script . at the time it be the high selling screenplay and it worth every penny . it so sad that audiences never give this movie a chance and cause they would have witness renny harlins best film and genna davis like you have never see her before . long live the long kiss goodnight .
