better than expected

Rating: 8/10 (21 August 2013)

First off let me just say I wont be going into the story you can just read that on the movie page. okay now that that's out of the way lets begin with the review. let me just start off by saying I was really surprised with how much I liked this movie. I am not a fan of Sherlock Holmes I have never seen the show or the old movies that's not to say I have never heard of Sherlock Holmes before, I know the usual stuff.
The acting was spot on everybody played they're part well especially Robert Downey Jr. I have seen him in other movies and he did really well for how different this character is compared to his other roles.
The soundtrack was quite pleasing it really sets the mood it never felt out of place.
The special effects were pretty good for the most part. I did notice a few times some things looked a bit iffy but it wasn't enough to take me out of the movie.
Nothing felt out of place, everybody looked the part, and the timing was spot on nothing felt to awkward or that it shouldn't have happened when it did.
Overall I thought it was a really enjoyable film nothing to obscene like most movies now days. if you like Sherlock Holmes or just a good detective story than I would highly recommend this movie.
