A little better than the first

Rating: 9/10 (30 December 2011)

It's been some time since my last review, but I just got back from seeing the new Sherlock Holmes movie and I have to say that I really enjoyed myself. RDJ portrays a very convincing Sherlock Holmes(of course) as in the first movie, I can guarantee that you will laugh a lot on this one, Jude law is very good as Dr. Watson, but I have to say that I am a little disappointed with the fact that the role of Rachel McAdams was short, even tough people should be pleased with Noomi Rapace filling in for her. Jarred Harris makes a great villain in this one, as the main bad guy in the Sherlock Holmes Universe, I say he proves a real challenge for Holmes, being more dangerous and intelligent than Mark Stron's Lord Blackwood, but a little too diplomatic at times. The special effects are great as in the first movie, with excellent slow-motion action scenes and there are also a few of those mind images from Holmes before he starts kicking some a**! "A Game of Shadows" did very well in my book so GO SEE IT! Because it's worth the money. Fingers crossed for a third.
