The Ultimate Sherlock Holmes Film and TV Power Ranking
8) Will Ferrell (Holmes & Watson, 2018)
Oh, honey. Oh honey, honey, honey.
On paper, Holmes & Watson sounded good. Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly as Sherlock Holmes and John Watson. Sure. In. Sold.
This movie, sadly, was not on paper. Holmes & Watson quite frankly is one of the worst movies you'll ever see, filled with jokes that don't land, a plot that makes little sense, and complete misuse of good actors (Ralph Fiennes appears as Professor Moriarty, which, again, sounds great! But he barely has any lines and his role, again, is pointless).
Ferrell had an incredible 2000s, but his 2010s left much to be desired, and Holmes & Watson was the worst of the bunch. As Harvey Dent said in The Dark Knight, "The night is darkest before the dawn," and hopefully that's the case with Mr. Ferrell—he's already gotten a bit on the uptick with 2020's Eurovision.
Where does Henry Cavill's 'Enola Holmes' portrayal land on the list?
