Review of Holmes & Watson (2018) by Tvjerry — 03 Jan 2019

This "comic" take on Sherlock Holmes stars Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly as the titular duo. I put the quotes around comic, because this film dredges the bottom of the comedy barrel and comes up flailing with a flat farce.

I didn't laff once during the entire movie. Much of the silliness is just that: silly (with some equally uninspired contemporary references). Reilly has a few mildly amusing moments with Queen Victoria, but that's still pretty anemic.

There is absolutely nothing to recommend this miserable coupling.
