Well Done.

Rating: Null/10 (1 April 2010)

As a Holmes fan for over 50 years I had no idea what to expect here. In my opinion the PBS series with Jeremy Brett was the pinnacle of the many interpretations of Holmes and would never be surpassed.......This movie did not surpass that PBS series. However I loved the movie. The only way you could do Holmes after the Brett series and make him interesting was to come up with a completely different way of looking at Holmes. Guy Ritchie did this beyond all expectations. Downey and Law were superb the movie had great atmosphere and the plot was over the top.... I am looking forward to the sequels.........Like Bond after Connery Holmes lives on after Brett.
