Movie Reviews of Without a Clue
Movie Review: Michael Caine is brilliantly thick
Summary: 5 Stars
Reginald Kincaide was an out of work actor hired by Dr. Watson to play his fictitious detective Sherlock Holmes, from there the humor ensues. As any actor will tell you, comedy is hard, and the cast of this well written script is up to the task. This is one of those marvelous British comedies that only they seem to be able to do. If you liked "Johnny English" or "Keeping Mum" you'll like this film. It's one of my absolute favorites. If you love Sherlock Holmes and don't mind poking fun at him, you'll also appreciate this movie (BTW Basil Rathbone is Sherlock for me.)Movie Review: Classical Sherlock Holmes Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of those movies that you remember for years. In this version of the movie Watson (played by Ben Kingsley) is the intelligent one and Holmes (played by Michael Caine) is the one who is without a clue. In the beginning of the movie, after one too many screw ups, Watson throws Holmes out of his house. Then, the plates for the 5lb notes of England have been stolen and Watson is forced to take Holmes back. Without giving away the plot, that sets the stage for many laughs through out the whole movie. This movie is one that you want to get.Movie Review: A Sherlock Holmes Treat
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful, literate satire of the Sherlock Holmes mysteries, in which Watson is the actual great detective and Holmes an unemployed ham actor. One of Michael Caine's best performances as Holmes, with Ben Kingley witheringly sharp as Watson. Beautiful production, excellent supporting cast. It helps to know your Conan Doyle to appreciate the nuances this film offers. Most unusual that it has not received the notice it deserves.Movie Review: Get some good laughs.
Summary: 5 Stars
To me, a good, funny movie. Michael Caine, as a bumbling Sherlock Holmes,
is great. Ben Kingsley,as Dr. Watson, is the real dectective who solves
the crimes and writes the stories. He has hired Caine, an unsucessful
actor, to play the part of Holmes. There are some great scenes and lots of laughs in this movie. I would recommend it to anyone.
Movie Review: Delightful Holmes...and equally delightful Watson!
Summary: 5 Stars
Witty, smart, funny, charming, beautifully made, delightfully acted. You know those movies where every detail is perfect? This is one of those. For lovers of fine movies - and fine acting performances. Michael Caine and Ben Kingsley give lovely performances, supported by a fine cast of actors (including Peter Cook). The final scene is extremely moving.
