Very entertained, but not a perfect second

Rating: 7/10 (28 December 2011)

Watching the precious Sherlock Holms is quite shock to me. I've been reading the stories since my childhood, and Robert really did well in performing the detective. It's so good to see the first, so I have been look forward to see "A Game Of Shadow".
It end up with delight, but not satisfaction. The frame of the movie extended due to the genius professor. However, the storyline became so straight which decrease a taste of complication. Moreover, with more emphasis on the fighting scene, it turned out to be "less exciting" sometimes, because it filled with slow motion fighting, which loosen the rhythm of the movie.
With all the disappointment mention above, I still felt entertained in the end. Everyone just did their jobs well, the conversation is fun, the music is even better than the first one. Despite some disadvantages within the movie, it's still worth watching.
If you're book fan of Sherlock Holms, you would find out disappointed because the quiz in the movie is not so mystic. However, if you take it as an action movie, it's still doing well in many aspects.
