Pathetic

Rating: 1/10 (24 January 2010)

Sherlock Holmes is an absurdity. The Sherlock Holmes that Rober Downey Jr plays is an impostor, stripped of the essence of Arthur Conan Doyle's Baker Street detective. Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law seem more like a very poor(underlined) imitation of James West and Artemus Gordon. The only other imitation that I can think of is again a very poor imitation of Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson in Shanghai series(those were a lot better movies).
The story is rubbish, the treatment is rubbish. The movie is a waste of time. They tried something on the same lines as Batman Begins and failed miserably. Where Batman Begins had a soul, Sherlock Holmes had neither soul nor story nor anything else.
Enough said, this movie needs to be trashed into the bin of remake horrors.
