Astonishingly Bad
7 January 2010
This Paul Morrissey film adaptation of Sir Athur Conan Doyle's mystery masterpiece is the single worst literary adaptation I have ever seen and one of the worst movies I have ever sat through. The film stars many comedic celebrities, and not once is anyone remotely funny. For instance there is a gag involving a perpetually urinating dog that seems to go on for years. The mentality of the whole project seems to be that merely having a British accent makes things funny. The film stars Dudley Moore and Peter Cook, but its all rubbish. Spike Milligan and Terry Thomas are also wasted. Sure to give ya a big ole ulcer. Avoid this stinker at all costs.
