Directed By: Guy Ritchie
Starring: Robert Downey Jr, Jude Law, Rachel McAdams
What it’s all about:
Sherlock Holmes and his sidekick Dr. Watson stop a human sacrifice ritual being conducted by one Lord Blackwood just in time. Blackwood is incarcerated and hung for his crimes. Three days after he is pronounced dead his tomb is found open, and a witness claims he saw Lord Blackwood arise from the tomb. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson must delve into the world of the occult to stop Lord Blackwood.
The Verdict:
Guy Ritchie’s re-imagining of the classic detective is sensational and over the top, yet matched with amazing set pieces, great performances from a solid cast and some genuinely funny moments, Sherlock Holmes will have enough to keep casual movie goers happy, yet enough substance to make the film enjoyable to existing fans. The chemistry between Jude Law and Robert Downey Jnr. is paramount to the films success, and while the story can seem to get a little lost along the way, all in all it’s an enjoyable holiday blockbuster.
7.5/10
