Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's famous super-sleuth, Sherlock Holmes, gets an update with this adaptation of Lionel Wigram's comic book series by writer/director Guy Ritchie (RocknRolla) starring Robert Downey Jr. as the titular detective, with Jude Law stepping into the shoes of his sidekick, Dr. Watson. Heading up the rest of the cast are RocknRolla's Mark Strong as the film's villain, Blackwood, and Rachel McAdams portraying the love interest, Irene Adler. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

| "Die Hard" meets "Harry Potter." This thoroughly silly romp has a lot of amusing moments and great attention to detail, but it's not quite worth the effort to decipher the muddy dialogue and figure out the clockwork plot. On the plus side, Holmes (Downey Jr.) and Watson (Law) are first-rate. Even if the script's sweaty, dirty, raunchy version of Holmes is a little preposterous, it's still fun to watch. I'm sorry they didn't get a better story to bounce their interesting characters off of. |
