Description

Suppose for a moment that Dr. Watson was the real brains behind Sherlock Holmes? The result is anything but elementary! Academy Award winners Michael Caine and Ben Kingsley deliver stellar performances as a delightful duo in this madcap mystery. Dr. John Watson (Kingsley) is secretly a crime-solving genius. But to protect his reputation as a physician, he hires bumbling, boozy, out-of-work actor Reginald Kincaid (Caine) to play the part of his fictional creation, Sherlock Holmes. The charade works until Watson mysteriously disappears, forcing the baffled, seriously inept Holmes to crack the biggest case of Watson's career on his own!

    An absolutely brilliant movie and a wonderful premise, perfectly acted by Kingsley and Caine. I have wanted this movie to be on iTunes for a long time. I have read all the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle stories and find that I get frustrated when someone makes a Sherlock movie and deviates from the true stories. But this is such an absolutely brilliant change… I’ve watched it a half dozen times and now that it’s on iTunes, I’ll watch it half a dozen more.
  • I looooove this show

    It has always been one of my favorites,a great take on the detective doctor duo. With two absolutely superb actors who stay in character so completely that you think, 'could this have been what Doyle was really thinking, and yet...'.
