Review of Holmes & Watson (2018) by Grace R — 15 Jan 2019

I saw this on a whim with absolutely no idea of the terrible ratings, and found it absolutely hilarious. A lot of the jokes are quite silly and the whole movie doesn't seem to take itself seriously, which I can understand turned a lot of people off, but I found refreshing and amusing! Quite a few jokes are actually very intelligent, and others cleverly concealed and slipped in.

If you stop paying proper attention early on you'll definitely miss some of the jokes (headlines and signs flashing across the screen or in the background, witty one-liners, etc). The comedy is stupid in the best possible way and the whole thing wraps up nicely to be good fun and a good laugh, if you're willing to give it half a chance.
