Reviews:

A great movie, but credit is due to Doyle.
OK, I thought this was an excellent movie. Having said that, where is the credit to Arthur Conan Doyle? When movies are based on the works of Shakespeare, such as modern day versions of Hamlet and Macbeth they always credit Shakespeares works.

Compare Zero Effect to A Scandal in Bohemia.

Compare the character Zero to Holmes: 1. both use drugs 2. both play a musical instrument 3. both apply astounding powers of observation to solve cases 4. both use disguises 5. both are loners who rely on their intermediaries (Watson/Arlo)

In Zero Effect, Arlo deals with conflicts between his romantic life and Zero’s need of him to function. In A Scandal In Bohemia, Watson has recently married and Holmes and Waston must deal with the issue.

The first line of A Scandal In Bohemia reads: “To Sherlock Holmes she is always THE woman.”

Guess what, in the end Sherlock doesn’t get the girl and he admires her as his most capable adversary. I guess Doyle must have a copy of Zero Effect stashed away somewhere.

Again, I will say I thought is was a fantastic movie. I’m not always a big fan of Pullman, but he was excellent in the role. If you are considering not watching this movie because you don’t like Ben Stiller, well don’t let that stop you. He takes his normal persona down a couple notches. Don’t expect to see any traces of Zoolander or Meet the Parents.

Not to be overlooked
I didn’t see this in theaters because most critics up here were dismissive of it, so I checked it out when it hit video and what I wanted wasn’t available. I should have ignored the critics. Even if, like me, you’re not well versed in Sherlock Holmes (which this film is inspired by), you should enjoy this movie. Bill Pullman is wonderful as Daryl Zero, who lives his professional life by the two “obs; observation and objectivity.” He’s quirky without being overly eccentric, and he’s very believable and touching. Ben Stiller is a nice foil as his front man. Kim Dickens proves after PALOOKAVILLE and this that she’s a talent to watch. I even liked Ryan O’Neal, whom I’m not a fan of. I’m definitely looking forward to Jake Kasdan’s next film; he looks like he may be as talented as his father.
