It's so painfully unfunny we're not sure it can legally be called a comedy. - Rolling Stone reviews Holmes & Watson

I was slightly interested in seeing this until I read reviews of it. I'm not a fan of Will Ferrell to begin with so I won't be spending my monies on it.

I'll be somewhat amazed if this actually gets released on 4K. Though I also actively avoid anything with Will Ferrell, so don't really have a horse in this race at all.

Yeah, Sony already cancelled plans to release The Girl in the Spider's Web in 4K based on its box office bombing. Holmes & Watson is already past the $14.8 million total domestic gross of that one, but with the word of mouth that it's been receiving, I can't imagine it going substantially higher. So they'l probably cancel this 4K too.

Too bad, I know a lot of people hate Ferrell's comedy but I typically enjoy it, especially with John C. Reilly. I think i'd have to rent this before I bought it.

CULVER CITY, Calif. (February 14, 2019) – Fan-favorite comedy duo, Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly (Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby and Step Brothers) team up for a brand-new take on the timeless characters of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in HOLMES & WATSON, debuting on Digital March 26, and coming to Blu-ray™ and DVD April 9 from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. Go back in time to witness the legendary detective Sherlock Holmes, played by Will Ferrell (Anchorman), and his trusted sidekick John Watson, played by John C. Reilly (Stan & Ollie) as they are tasked to solve a murder at Buckingham Palace before the Queen becomes the killer’s next victim. Rebecca Hall (Vicky Cristina Barcelona), Rob Brydon (The Trip), Kelly Macdonald (No Country for Old Men), Ralph Fiennes (Grand Budapest Hotel) and Lauren Lapkus (Crashing”) round out the entertaining supporting cast. Writer/director Etan Cohen (Men in Black 3, Tropic Thunder) helms the historical caper.

HOLMES & WATSON’s Blu-ray™, DVD, and Digital bonus features are filled with never-before-seen footage, including eighteen deleted and extended scenes, a Line-O-Rama full of improv and outtakes as well as three new featurettes. In “Will and John: Together Again,” watch the film’s stars’ incredible comedic chemistry in their first film back together in a decade, as they reminisce about their experience working together and revel in their on-set antics. “Seriously Absurd: The Cast” shows how Rebecca Hall, Lauren Lapkus, Ralph Fiennes and Billy Zane manage to keep straight faces during production. Finally, “Mrs. Hudson’s Men” proves why the world’s most famous artists, scientists and authors can’t resist the allure of Kelly Macdonald’s Mrs. Hudson.

HOLMES & WATSON is presented by Columbia Pictures in association with Mimran Schur Pictures, and Gary Sanchez/Mosaic. The film is written and directed by Etan Cohen, executive produced by Chris Henchy, Jessica Elbaum, M. Riley, David Mimran and Jordan Schur, and produced by Will Ferrell, Adam McKay, Jimmy Miller and Clayton Townsend.

Synopsis:
The stars of Step Brothers are reunited – this time playing the world’s greatest detective and his loyal sidekick & biographer – as Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly star as HOLMES & WATSON. Together they join forces to solve a murder at Buckingham Palace. They soon realize that they only have 5,760 minutes to solve the case, or the Queen will be next.

I guess the 4k release was dropped. Lots of extras though on the bluray which is interesting.
It is getting more and more typical, especially with the shortening window between theatrical and home video release, that most physical media releases are often authored just before the theatrical release date. One of the reasons I find commentary tracks and other extras on new releases to be rather dull and self-congratulatory.

As I was walking into another film, an 8 year old boy was going on and on about how funny this was and how his 16 year old sister just couldn't "understand" it. I guess you haters are just clueless.

Not really a lot of extras - it just looks that way because the press release lists all of the deleted scenes.

Really, all we get are deleted scenes, a collection of alternate lines and 3 featurettes.

That's not a bad array of extras, but it's nothing major...
