A very good reimagination of Sherlock Holmes. A movie I love to watch again and again. (I wonder if they could pull off "Hound of the Baskervilles" in that style. I'd watch that!)

I had a lot of fun watching this! Guy Ritchie did a great job directing. I was amazed by the way it looks visually, it's beautiful. The CGI looked so real it was excellently done (four years passed since this film was made and there are few recent films that I've seen where the CGI is terrible, they should improve not recede. That bothers me a little) *sorry for the outflow* The plot is believable and Victorian London never looked so modern and fresh. The costume design and the set design were great. The music score were perfect very well suited in each scene. Great acting by the two leading roles with special attention once again to the amazing Robert Downey Jr. his british accent was very good! The chemistry between him and Jude Law was great. Mark Strong did a great job also as the villian Lord Blackwood. Overall this film is the perfect combination of humour, suspense and action. I was for watching this for a while and I'm in a Robert Downey Jr. wave! Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows will be the next.

Fun adaptation of the classic character played wonderfully by Robert Downey Jr. who has some nice banter with Jude Law's Holmes as well as the beautiful Rachel McAdams. I like Mark Strong but he doesn't have a whole lot to work with. It's also a bit long however I was entertained. **3.75/5**

_**Sherlock Holmes goes hyperkinetic action with impossible CGI**_

In Victorian London, Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) & Dr. Watson (Jude Law) enter into a clash of wits and brawn with a serial killing Lord involved in black magic who, apparently, has risen from the dead (Mark Strong). Rache More
