Just walked out of Holmes and Watson 15 minutes in. Boyfriend’s movie choosing privileges are cancelled

Just walked out after 10 minutes of Holmes and Watson. #CrapSandwich

Holmes and Watson was the worst piece of trash movie I have ever seen in my entire life. If I wasnt there with my family I would have walked out and asked for my money back. No one laughed. @WillFerreI @johncreillywtf you should be ashamed to have put your name on that.

This is a public announcement: Holmes and Watson. Possibly the worst movie ever made, couldn’t stick it, had to walk out after 30 mins. Utter utter crap!!

People! Run, don’t walk, away from the dumpster fire that is Holmes and Watson! It’s worse than the reviews say.

Public Service Announcement! Please do NOT leave your home to go see “Holmes and Watson.” You will find it excruciatingly unfunny.. You will walk out.. You will ask for your money back.. -Worst 15 minutes of a movie I’ve ever subjected myself to- pic.twitter.com/ohDzuIcqtM

Reviews have branded the “abysmally unfunny” film “career lows” for both Ferrell and Reilly, the latter of whom is winning rave reviews for his portrayal of Oliver Hardy in forthcoming biopic Stan & Ollie.

"You can tell just why the cinema manager there didn’t do more to get it shown," The Independent wrote, after critic Geoffrey Macnab revealed that the film's first London screening was cancelled "on the grounds that the projector wasn’t working properly".

While the Los Angeles Times considered the film “a well-meaning misfire”, IndieWire wondered how “so many funny people have been squeezed into such an unfunny movie”.

“[It’s] a movie that isn’t nearly smart enough to recognise how stupid it should have been,” the site’s review read.
