6. Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang (R; $19.99) and The Maltese Falcon (Three-Disc Special Edition) (NR; $29.98)
Playing a thief turned private-eye, Robert Downey Jr. has never been funnier than he is in Shane Black’s Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang. The Maltese most of us know was actually the third adaptation of the same novel. This set includes the previous two films, and though the first is a dud, the second and third are so sharp, you’ll have to rethink your snobby attitude about remakes.
