Sherlock Holmes Review

Thanks for checking out my review of Sherlock Holmes.

The Good: WOW. Just, I mean...WOW. This character (so BRILLIANTLY played by Robert Downey Jr.) is one of the best, if not THE best, movie characters of all-time. Sherlock Holmes is not only always one step ahead of everybody, and still played with charm and humor, but he makes the audience feel dumb for not realizing what he just solved! He is an intelligent, hilarious, brilliant, amazing character that made this movie worth the wait.

Robert Downey Jr. is just an amazing actor in this from start to finish. Jude Law as Watson is also very good.

Very good bad guy. Almost as smart as Sherlock. ALMOST.

Whoa. Some of the most breathtaking fight scenes and explosions in a movie I've ever seen. Here's the thing. Holmes plans his attacks to a perfect edge. It shows instructions and tells what he's going to do in super slow-mo with a perfect voiceover. Then it shows the real thing in real life with a brutal touch. Very great work from Guy Ritchie.

The Bad: The only bad thing I could come up from this movie is that it's TOO SHORT. That made a problem because near the end the plot was kind of mixed up and crazy. But it all comes together in an exciting climax that makes up for it and explains everything. (Again from Sherlock Holmes from a perfect solution).

Overall: It may be a little short, but don't let that stop you. Perfect character, perfect action, and hilarious humor make this movie a must-see experience. Better than Transformers 2, my 4th fav movie, and Sherlock Holmes deserves a very solid 4.5/5.
