    It's genuinely funny you should suggest at 4:40 that it was easy to film because noone on set was laughing - I was one of the film extras on this movie, I spent a good four weeks on set in different scenes, and it was a widely agreed upon opinion among us extras that this movie was the most entertaining to be on. The courtroom specifically was difficult to film because the attendees kept sniggering at the masturbation jokes.
    Granted, we had reservations on set. We were confused about the time period (having seen props alluding to the Titanic, rumors of Einstein being a featured character, and obviously knowing this was all simultaneously Victorian England) and also about our relationship to Holmes himself, did we, the audience, hate him, love him, think him an idiot or genius? But we had such a good time shooting this, that when the movie came out, we all went to see it in the cinema, hoping to reminisce. Turns out, it was practically all re-shot and the only scene that remains the same as I remember was the courtroom; and even that was edited together rather miserably.
    There was a whole plot about the hooked man (not played at the time by Steve Coogan) and there was a whole car chase in a market, and the hooked man died in the crash, and the wreckage is where the threatening letter was found- like... where was all THAT in the movie??
    We watched Watson homeless singing in the street - also cut.
    Watson actually made it up to the platform before his execution - also rewritten?
    So much we filmed was never in the movie and so many scenes were entirely rewritten. I'm willing to bet Mrs Hudson was never originally intended to be the mastermind in the end.
    It's such a bad movie. I obviously have no idea what their original cut would have looked like, but yikes. This finished version was apparently a better option? I'm stunned they thought half of this was a good idea.

      @@bert1029 Thank you! There may be one additional story I could tell you-
      I often refer back to shooting one scene on this as one of my all time favorites to be a part of. The premise was that Holmes & Watson were celebrating something, entered a pub and offered to buy free drinks for everyone inside, and over the course of the scene, we gradually got more and more 'drunk'.
      What made it so fun to film was just the absolute freedom we had in the background to cause complete chaos. While at first we were all just in conversation with each-other, tankards of actual non alcoholic beer in hands, the ultimate drunk take had several ladies happily relieved of some of their costumes; a couple people pretended to be passed out with their friends playing a game of dominoes balanced on their foreheads, some gents sang sea-shanties, many told jokes, one fella climbed up and swung from a shelf halfway up the pub's wall, someone else was throwing playing cards out as if it were a stack of dollar bills; and my personal favorite moment, when O'Reilly and Ferrell themselves broke into a song, wrapped their arms around us and we raised our tankards to the studio roof and danced like we were in a bazaar Victorian moshpit. Brilliant memories.
      Shame none of it made it into the movie. And instead was replaced by a very short tavern scene after-which the two mains attempt to sext their girlfriends via telegram.

      But what is sad is that you're talking about individually interesting bits being taken out but then the end result is still aimless.

    I think Will Ferrel may suffer from some Adam Sandler syndrome. He has been good and even great in movies before. His performance in The Lego Movie is stellar. In the final 10 minutes he needs to deliver a depthful, character filled, emotional and heartfelt performance that is also funny and he does it perfectly. It makes me wonder if in a movie like this if he is casted wrong, given poor direction, or maybe just didn't care as much as when in The Lego Movie.

    I saw this in theaters but we went with the hope it was going to be bad and with some wine snuck in maybe it won't be so terrible. We were one of two groups in there. The other group was a single dad and his kid during his visit weekend. Our group loves bad movies from trolls 2 to leprechaun in the Hood anything under the sun is fair game. We even go as far as to watch some of the film's on Redlettermedias search for the worst. This movie.. this movie hurt. Every single joke was infinity worse than you could guess before it came up. Scenes went on minutes longer than they should. There was no effort or passion just pure abysmal trash.

    I wish John C. Reilly wasn't always associated with Will Ferrell as being a "bad actor".
    He's pretty funny playing Steve Brule in his T&E bits; Not to mention his supporting role in We Need To Talk About Kevin shows how versatile he can be.

    • @shawnfields2369
      @shawnfields2369 3 года назад +3

      I agree. John Reilly can branch out, and the guy's got natural acting skills and talents, and can give it his all, and go from comedic role, to a slightly more dramatic role, just like that. I was shocked to find that John C. Reilly was even IN more dramatic types of movies; and playing up more dramatic characters and performances in those movies, and the guy is relegated to being in the background most, if not all the time. It's a shame, he's overshadowed by people like Will Ferrell, who's not even trying or even being funny anymore. I mean; we all enjoy John Reilly as Dr. Steve Brule in Tim & Eric, as his standout tv show role, but i didn't know how versatile the guy was until I heard about it. I feel bad for underestimating his skill, and versatility. I definitely liked John Reilly in Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, because I thought it was funny, and John Reilly can really belt out a song, and sing like there's no tomorrow. That movie felt like a real documentary about a real person. But I haven't seen all of his movies, or even his more dramatic roles. I was even surprised to see him in Guardians Of The Galaxy, one of my favorite movies. I like how he's branching out, trying out new roles, and is more convincing and tries to not let his entire career be just limited to mostly the same type of role like, Dr. Steve Brule or the other dude in Talladega Nights or Step Brothers, and I like those movies. But I also like how John C. Reilly is trying out different things, trying to not let his comedic roles determine his entire career, and he's putting his efforts into pretty much any kind of role you see the guy in, whether it's a comedy or a drama. And he doesn't want to be defined as Will Ferrell's 2nd banana his whole life/career. He wants to be a big name, an actor whose name can carry roles, WITHOUT Will Ferrell overshadowing him, or his name being 2nd. Like how it's always "Will Ferrell & John C. Reilly", never "John C. Reilly & Will Ferrell", he clearly wants to carry things with his name alone, and not have to rely on Ferrell's. Because whenever they do team up for something, it's just Step Brothers or Talladega Nights, and they never try anything new or different, and I think John Reilly just wants to be known as a versatile guy, an actor who can be comedic and dramatic, and not just be known for only doing 1 type of role his whole career. And I think it works, for the most part. He's just more known for being in comedies though. Not that they're bad, it's just mainly the Will Ferrell buddy comedies that are the bad ones. And I like Will Ferrell too. Especially because of the strength of movies like Semi-Pro, Zoolander, Anchorman, Step Brothers, Talladega Nights, even Stranger Than Fiction and Blades Of Glory, and Elf. I know Will Ferrell can do slightly more dramatic roles, he did it in Stranger Than Fiction and Elf, and Megamind and The Lego Movie. But Ferrell's versatility pales in comparison to John C. Reilly's versatility. You'd think putting those 2 together would make something fun, and engaging, but this movie proves that just because you can necessarily put 2 good things together, doesn't always mean you should, or you'll get Holmes & Watson, the worst Sherlock Holmes related movie ever made. Sorry for the long rant too. Just a big fan of both Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly, well, not as big of a fan of Ferrell's as I used to be, but definitely a fan of John Reilly's. I should check out his more dramatic stuff sometime... because anything's better than being subjected to this. And I'm a fan of Sherlock Holmes movies and anything detective related, but this is just a bullshit movie, and Will Ferrell's worst, which is a new low, even for him. Sorry for these long rants. I'll stop now.

    "Madagascar 1 was better than this movie" - Man, "The Room" is better than this dumpster fire. That one at least will make you laugh with it's incompetence and weird characters, but movie-wise only few things can be worse than a supposed comedy completely failing. When you watch the main characters and feel embarrassed for the actors and nothing else... That's a tough fail.
    Ferrell's did some nice comedies here and there, but he definitely needs a stronger director than here, one who slaps him, if he goes too much overboard with improvised nonsense.

      Will Ferrell is in a lot of funny movies.
      That doesn't = will Ferrell being funny.
      In every "Ferrel&reilley" team up, John C Reiley is infinitely better.
      Elf is a great movie, in that it's childish and aimed largely at kids, so the Manchild shtick makes sense.
      Most of the rest of his movies are nowhere near as funny as they're made out to be.
      Zoolander he's just annoying and obnoxious. Anchorman is alright(bit overrated imo)
      Walk Hard is easily the funniest movie of all time, and a HUGE part of that is John C Reiley being the lead role.
      I feel like if the world wanted to be honest, the two actors would be flipped, and Reiley would deserve the attention Ferrell gets.
      Yeah, I butchered their names multiple times throughout. Oh well.

Not a single laugh could be heard for the entire length of the film, with the exception of a disabled man in a wheel chair in the front row. The experience was one of sheer, unaltered pain, with intermittent sobs from my dad and the spastic cackling from the front row. We came out of the theatre at about 8 in the evening and had to spend the next 5 hours drowning our sorrows in a pub.
