- Without a Clue (UK, 1988)
Fun spoof of Sherlock Holmes with Sir Ben Kingsley as Dr John Watson hiring an out-of-work actor (Caine) to pass off as the purely fictional Sherlock Holmes
Rating: 8/10
- Deathtrap (USA, 1982)
Probably most famous as the film in which Michael Caine kisses Christopher Reeve, this black comedy mystery never escapes its theatrical origins
Rating: 5/10
- Sleuth (UK, 1972)
The first of the two Sleuth movies is marginally the better, with Caine and Olivier caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse
Rating: 9/10
