Guy Ritchie's best effort

Rating: 9/10 (14 February 2010)

I have always been fascinated with Sherlock Holmes and I was not disappointed with Guy Ritche's effort. Ritchie has had my attention since "Snatched". If you have not seen it, watch it without kids. It is as violent as they get. His version of Sherlock reflects his style of a movie but he worked hard to get it right. The movie has potential to be one of the few that are worth see several times. It is clear Law and Downing enjoy working together.The action is fast and the effects are believable. Downing is totally immersed as Holmes. Of course some think they are one and the same. Downing is the only one who pull off role. This is not a kid's movie. The movie makes you think and wonder about all the possibilities it brings. It has been awhile since a movie has made me feel this way. If you like mind twister go see it. I would love to see a Holmes 2 in the future.
