Back Again

Rating: Null/10 (31 January 2012)

I loved the first film, but this one was even better. To duel with Professor Moriarty using keen intellects was astounding. Robert Downey Jr. (Sherlock) delivers a brilliant performance as always to his character. Jude Law (Watson) as his sidekick is as boisterous as he was in the first film. Together, they try to solve the greatest mystery in their careers to stop the fiendish Moriarty Jared Harris (Son of late Richard Harris) - (Prof.Moriarty) of causing a world war using stealth and a sniper at a peace summit in Switzerland. This movie gave us the more incredible details like never before. Such as Sherlock using his deductive skills to outwit or out match his nemesis on an equal level. Yet still, Moriarty has more aces up his sleeve than Sherlock which is why at one point, Sherlock dies on a train. But as with all of Sherlock's skills, never fails to make sure that his good friend and colleague Watson is prepared just for his death. Thus the syringe he gave Watson as a wedding present. One sequence of Sherlock and his friends romping through the forest with bombing shells after them was refreshing to watch. A unique take on the scenes using stop-still-slow motion is fantastic. I was not disappointed with this film. Especially seeing Sherlocks brother walking around naked in front of Watsons wife. I really thought Sherlock's brother had the brains in the family. Oh well, it still was amusing, breathtaking, edge of your seat fun. The music, the action, the story just fit perfectly for our favourite actors to give us the legend in quite formidable conformity. Highly recommended to watch. Not for those under fourteen.
