The Sherlock Holmes theme has always been one of the hot objects of film and television remakes, before the film version of the "Sherlock Holmes" series, the British drama "Sherlock", the American drama "Elementary" (Elementary), etc., and now the audience has one more choice: the comedy film "Holmes and Watson". However, recently it was exposed that word of mouth hit the street, the famous movie website Rotten Tomatoes index is 0%, the average score is as low as 1.8! The popcorn index is also only 19%. Cinema Score, on the other hand, received a huge D+. It seems that the box office of the movie is a bit dangerous.
This version of Sherlock Holmes was created by veteran comedy stars Will Ferrell and John F. Kennedy. John C. Reilly teamed up to create the two as Detective Holmes and assistant Watson. This is the third collaboration between the two after "Night in Talladega" and "Non-Brothers", with Itan Kohen of Madagascar 2 and Men in Black 3 as the director and screenwriter of the film.
Will Farrell and John F. Kennedy C. Reilly, Hollywood's ace comedy duo, will launch the lowest IQ "Sherlock Holmes and Watson" combination, a Holmes who uses reasoning unnecessarily and a perhaps the dumbest Watson doctor ever!
In the trailer, the funny passages of the two people appear endlessly: hitting bees with pistols, "selfies" with the Queen of England, and calling themselves "camouflage masters" after pasting their beards...
This time the two will focus on a murder at Buckingham Palace, where they need to solve the case and protect the Queen in 4 days. You can also see the familiar 221B, homeless children working for Holmes, etc. In addition to the two main actors, there are also "Voldemort" Ralph Fiennes, "Dr. House" Hugh Laurie, Rebecca Hall, "Bear Island Lyanna" Bella Ramsey and other familiar actors, including Fiennes playing Holmes's old rival Professor Moriarty.
The film Sherlock Holmes and Watson was released in North America on December 21. (Ho Wai Man/Text)
