Stylish, entertaining, but not Holms

Rating: 6/10 (20 April 2012)

I personally don't like the interpretation of Sherlock Holmes. I think that Robert Downey Jr. does not fit for the role. Though he may be a good actor, he and Sherlock have different psychological types, I think. Besides, Guy Ritchie's style (too much kinetic, benny-hill-ish knockabout comedy) does not suit the noble, measured classic novels.
There is nothing really special. Meanwhile the movie is pretty watchable, stylish, entertaining. It has many neat details, sometime proper atmosphere, sometime funny (not so often). It's worth to see it at least once. Just for entertainment. Some evening after some brain crushing hard work, you know, just for relaxation. At least it's not kill your brain by its stupidity as Sherlock BBC may do.
