Sherlock Holmes it ain't

Rating: 1/10 (15 April 2012)

They could call the main character in this film John Archibald, Peter Smith, Vera Gardner, or whatever because it makes no difference
He simply has no resemblance whatsoever with Doyle's creation. Those things should not be allowed. It is like painting mustaches on Mona Lisa or adding another leg to Michelangelo's David.
What we have here is a guy, a "thing" who is a mixture of a buffoon with an adult with ADD (nothing against the folks with ADD!!!). He is not a hero, nor anti-hero, he is just a messy individual.
And to make things worse, the story is not that interesting. It has a feel of deja-vu. It is an effortless to capitalize on the success of the first film...
Too bad they don't make Sherlock Holmes like before...
