Have I seen you before?Sherlock Holmes is a fictional detective invented by Conan Doyle, and based in London. He is a clinical genious at his art and has many cases triumphantly closed. This adaptation by Guy Ritchie brings in Robert Downey Jr. as Holmes with his companion Watson played by Jude Law. The pair work well together, as Holmes as the brash and brains and Watson as the common sense holding it together. The acting of the two, I would say I good, with Jr giving an entertaining performance throughtout, but you feel the character is the exact same as the one he plays for the role of Tony Stark in the Iron Man series. There are no real other attention grabbing performances from anyone else
Probably the biggest question for this movie is do the actors stay true to the characters of the novel and the story as well. I can't answer this as I have never read any of the novels, but thos of you who can answer this please do in a reply :)
It is a good movie for action and mystery as the Detective parts mesh together well with the action sequences, with a good balance throughout. Overall, it is an entertaining movie, but over the year, there have been better. If you are going to a cinema soon I recommend seeing it, and if not wait for DVD Release
