Meet the world's greatest detective, and his bumbling partner... Sherlock Holmes.
This is one of the funniest films I have seen in a long time. The whole idea of the typical Sherlock Holmes stories is mixed up and changed round for the purpose of the film so we now have John Watson as the brains behind the operation and Sherlock Holmes as the rather simple but likeable fool who does nothing but mess up the doctor's plans. Watson's dream is to be known as John Watson - Crime Doctor but no one seems interested in him, instead focusing entirely on Holmes who gets through his detective work by Watson's subtle hints at all the clues. Ben Kingsley is brilliant and ever so funny as Watson, I intend to watch everything he has ever done, and Michael Caine provides a humorous glimpse into a world where Sherlock Holmes is an idiot - certainly not a case in reality.
