Holmes & Watson Reviews

If you walk in late for Holmes & Watson, no worries. Rest assured the same three jokes will be repeated over and over for the entire 90 minutes.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 17, 2022

The entire thing is embarrassing and difficult to endure.

| Original Score: 0.5/4 | Mar 3, 2022

One of the worst films of 2018.

| Original Score: 1.0/4.0 | Sep 10, 2020

Etan Cohen's comedy take on Holmes and Watson is a load of old Baskerville hound droppings

| Original Score: 2/10 | Feb 29, 2020

Watching this feels like getting elbowed erratically in the ribs.

| Feb 21, 2020

A very flat, lethargic and largely laughter-free spoof, in which Will Ferrell plays the legendary literary detective Sherlock Holmes is simply incapable of getting any jokey party started.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 30, 2019

This is pointless, ridiculous, insulting material that shouldn't even be viewed as a hate-watch.

| May 2, 2019

It's lazy, it's unfunny and it's a good thing critics didn't get to review Holmes and Watson before the end of the year: Worst Movie of 2018? Elementary, my dear Watson.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Apr 15, 2019

The greatest comedic bits of 'Holmes and Watson' are possibly the anachronisms. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 5, 2019

In Etan Cohen's film, there is nothing new, nor any context, any opportunity for originality or grace. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Feb 22, 2019

Holmes and Watson is idiotic, but not enough to alienate everyone. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 20, 2019

Very dumb and occasionally very funny.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 18, 2019

It is indescribably bad.

| Jan 16, 2019

The reteaming of Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly in "Holmes & Watson" as that celebrated detective duo Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson ignites few chuckles and absolutely no comedic fireworks.

| Original Score: C | Jan 15, 2019

All it's doing is, more feebly, what Robert Downey Jr. was doing ten years ago.

| Jan 12, 2019

For my money, this is a laugh-out-loud movie ideal for a relaxing Friday night.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jan 11, 2019

The smell of flop-sweat permeates the movie like real sweat in a locker room. It's too bad to be offensive, too inert to be annoying.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 10, 2019

Holmes & Watson is likely to make even the least demanding cinema-goers feel as if they've had their intelligence insulted.

| Jan 10, 2019

These jokes are of course tired junk, aiming for the lowest of the low-hanging fruit and still somehow not always hitting their targets.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 10, 2019

An astoundingly awful film.
