Skip It

Rating: Null/10 (20 February 2010)

Sherlock Holmes, what a disappointment. When I saw the original trailer I thought this would be an exciting movie. Not so. I am a Robert Downy fan, but even he can't save this film. At one point I turned to my fiancé and said sarcastically "didn't see that one coming". Shortly after that, we walked out on the film, 55 minutes into the movie to be exact. To give this bad movie a little love, the fight scenes were cool, but it wasn't enough to keep this movie alive. A big budget period picture with a great cast and an intriguing storyline, but nothing to back it up. Maybe hardcore Sherlock Holmes fans would find this entertaining, like the one woman in the theater that I heard laughing hysterically (may I mention the rest of the audience looked just as bored as I).
