Rating: 8/10 (17 December 2011)

Having become a bit of a cinematic icon, the world's greatest detective returns in this epic sequel and movie adaptation of the classic books. Now, shall we proceed in this most fascinating entry of the detective saga.
Sherlock Holmes has been on the trail of his archenemy Professor James Moriarty and, as expected, Watson is once again been dragged into Sherlock's manhunt. Tensions between countries are rising and Moriarty is up to something terrible. Employing his usual tactics and coming up with new strategies, Sherlock sets out to put a halt to his enemy's plans once and for all.
The old charm is back and so is the great comedy as well as the intense action. The action scenes are a real spectacle, again employing great camera work and slow-motion that intensifies the battles. Once again, we have a mystery that really messes with your head and, as Sherlock once put it, even the smallest detail has a good value of information. Moriarty proves to be Sherlock's intellectual equal, which further raises the challenge for our dear detective.
This ingenious endeavor proves to be as great as the first film. It's recommended that you sit back, relax, and watch as Sherlock Holmes delves into this deadly Game of Shadows.
