Sherlock Holmes

Rating: 5/10 (23 January 2011)

I've never read any Sherlock Holmes book or even watched any other TV or and films adapt ions so i'll have to rate the film standing alone. First of all, Downey mumbles it such a low key croak that words are heard to pick up. Nevermind, his character was likable enough.
The first 45 minutes, it seemed that Guy Ritchie focused entirely on character development and that the chemistry between Law and Downey, that he totally forgotten about the story. The art design was second from none and the atmosphere was dismally morbid. These two elements juxtaposed very well with the story that soon begins rolling after those 45 minutes As you expect, everything is top notch. Acting, writing, costumes and designs, everything. But me not being a Holmes fan, i didn't rate it much
