What happened? Why the shit reviews? How could two tenured comedians be so tone deaf?

i like a couple of the trailer clips, actually.

too bad it looks shitty; Talladega and Step Brothers were both fantastic.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess it's because it's a shitty movie.

I was wondering how the good comedians botched it so badly

Few people I know saw it, seems like it's a movie that's going to get funnier every time you watch it. Supposedly there's a throw up scene that's hilarious.

Ferrell has been a has-been for years.

He's honestly reaching Sandler levels of shit.

I thought this line from a review was good:

"Stan and Ollie is a movie about a comedy duo that has seen better days, while Holmes & Watson merely stars one."

I was going to until @Muffinz0rz @Nuffinz0rz told me it was by Etan Cohen, not Ethan Coen.

You saved me $10 dude.

I wouldn't even say Ferrell has gotten worse. like he has his hits for sure, but even early on in he had duds
it feels more like he's just hit and miss constantly throughout his career

the only role I've enjoyed from either of them is Bob Oblong. Maybe two or three more where I won't immediately change the channel (J&SBSB, some SNL stuff). but overall? They've both always been unappealing to me.

Boom! That's right, this is all happening! You cannot change the channel now!

Their formula works best when you have stupid characters living in the real world. It doesn't work well with stupid characters in a stupid or fake world.

Talladega is probably my favorite comedy of all time...it just hits all the right spots

But I saw the movie and it wasn't good. Just stupid humor, but John C. Riely as Watson is a good fit

There's only so much they can do if the script and director suck.

Adam McKay, who wrote Step Brothers and Talladega Nights (and some other great stuff) did not write this movie, which explains why those hit and this one missed.

I think this type of parody would work with comedians like Abbot and Costello. Like, intelligently being stupid, rather than stupidly being stupid.

Kind of like the elephant scene from Brothers Grimsby.

You're welcome

I was actually going to see it tonight after dinner but we took too long eating so we got to the theater like half an hour late and nothing else was playing for another hour or so so we bailed
