The Kid Detective2020
No longer a kid. Not much of a detective.
A once-celebrated kid detective, now 31, continues to solve the same trivial mysteries between hangovers and bouts of self-pity. Until a naive client brings him his first 'adult' case, to find out who brutally murdered her boyfriend.

Writer-director Evan Morgan’s deft screenplay balances a taut crime story against a textured character study.
Just caught The Kid Detective newly released on Netflix. I love Canadian films. I had no idea who Adam Brody was. Terrific, nuanced performance. And a great script, very charming in the beginning, that reveals itself slowly and surprisingly, but well worth the wait!
I thoroughly enjoyed Kid Detective. It’s not the kind of picture that wins awards, which is too bad because nestled within a traditional tale of a detective in need of redemption, is a story surprisingly unique and humane.
