How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A gleefully irreverent Sherlock Holmes parody that revels in slapstick absurdity and broad comedy, spoofing detective tropes with uninhibited silliness. It's a fast-paced romp through ridiculous disguises and physical gags, designed for viewers who relish '70s comedy antics over actual mystery plotting.
