Also released under the title Young Sherlock Holmes and the Pyramid of Fear, this film follows the adventures of young John Watson (Alan Cox) when he is shipped off to boarding school and meets up with the brilliantly bizarre Sherlock Holmes (Nicolas Rowe). The two boys strike up a friendship and promptly become involved in the investigation of a number of mysterious murders. When their curiosity gets them into trouble with a dangerous religious cult, Watson and Holmes must struggle to avoid capture while attempting to notify the authorities. ~ Iotis Erlewine, All Movie Guide
Loved this movie and have always wished that it would have been made into a series. Maybe once the current incarnation gets too old they can revisit the idea...
Watched this movie years ago and so glad I watched it again. Was a great family movie. It was a great way to tie up the early years and find out how Holmes and Watson met even if was not real but then again Holmes and Watson arent either except in my memories. I think everyone who ever loved the mystery stories on Holmes and Watson should watch this movie.
