The film is apparently so bad that it's prompting audiences to leave the theater in the middle of the movie, with some even requesting refunds for the cost of their tickets.
Directed by Tropic Thunder writer Etan Cohen, Holmes & Watson opened on Christmas Day, but wasn't screened to members of the media ahead of its wide launch. Once critics and fans actually feasted their eyes upon what they thought would be another hilarious Ferrell-Reilly two-hander, things went sour fast.
Currently, Holmes & Watson sits has a six percent critical approval rating and 25 percent fan score on Rotten Tomatoes, which is actually an improvement from its commencing posting of zero percent — a mark that doesn't come around very often on the review aggregator.
