THE LONG KISS GOODNIGHT (1996) Revisited: Action Movie Review

When you're doing a video series like Reel Action, you can never go too long without mentioning Shane Black. And when it comes to Christmas action movies, Shane Black is the guy to turn to. The holiday spirit brought us our video on The Last Boy Scout last year, and this time the yuletide tidings bring us another Shane Black classic, The Long Kiss Goodnight!

The Long Kiss Goodnight wasn't just another action movie. With Geena Davis as the star, playing a role traditionally designed for a man, the film was a rarity and a ballsy gamble. Davis also would've seemed like an unlikely pick for this type of assassin flick, but then she was married at the time to director Renny Harlin, the guy behind Die Hard 2, The Adventures of Ford Fairlane, and Cliffhanger.

Um, he was also the director of Cutthroat Island, an infamous big-budget pirate movie known for being an epic box office flop that destroyed careers. Davis starred in that, too, and its impact on The Long Kiss Goodnight would be felt and not in a good way.

But The Long Kiss Goodnight is insanely good, with Harlin doing some of his career's best work, using the icy setting to let Davis pull off some really crazy stuff on ice skates. Tonya Harding ain’t got nothin’ on her!
