The Adventure of Sherlock
Holmes' Smarter Brother (1975)

Rate: 1
Viewed: 10/13

10/13: "Quick, Watson...the hypodermic needle! I need to shoot myself up with cocaine."

It's what the real Sherlock Holmes would say if he saw The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother. At least, the movie isn't dreadful like The Hound of the Baskervilles with Peter Cook and Dudley Moore.

Yet it's billed as a comedy, so where are the jokes? What exactly do people see in Gene Wilder? When has he ever been funny? I suppose they like him groping women's breasts all the time.

All in all, The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother is a certified turkey bomb.
