You'll recall Thom Eberhart, the director of Without a Clue, from Night of the Comet.
I'm an easy target for anything having to do with Baker Street, Holmes and Watson, so this film captured my interest when it arrived back in 1988.
The basic set-up of the film, is that Holmes was a thespian hired by Watson, who was the real brains behind the effort.
The problem with the set-up is that it doesn't really work. I'm fine with the film, as it's interesting to see where it's going any how it intends on getting there.
It's fun, but go in with minimal expectations, and you'll exit in good shape.
As a Blu-ray, Without a Clue is a nice place to spend a hundred minutes or so. Color, densities, grain are all fine. Nothing to take you out of the experience. The aspect ratio, set here at 1.66 also works nicely - just odd for the era.
Without a Clue is a safe bet on Blu-ray.
