Just because it has the same basic cast as "Young Frankenstein" doesn't mean anything. If the script has nothing for them too say and do, it doesn't matter. This is a one joke movie where Gene Wilder's other Holmes tries so hard to one up Sherlock. Madeline Kahn is doing the same stuff here, but the interactions with the other characters just don't click very well. Also, some people think this is a Mel Brooks film. It is not. Wilder is fun to watch with his paranoid, defeated, second banana act, but he never can overcome the aforementioned writing. Don't hesitate to see it. Just don't expect too much. I'm certain this was project for some actors during time between more meaningful films.
