Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
Dec. 25th, 2011 05:45 pmI am now more awake, less distracted by Yuletide, and... well, still trying to figure out how I got this massive bruise on my knee. But whatever. Here's the promised Sherlock Holmes review.
Like I said earlier, if you liked the first movie, you'll probably like this one. It's much of the same, in that it's a Victorian action movie with (debatably) familiar characters. If you're a canon fan who thought the first movie should have been shot into space by a cannon, you'll probably get annoyed all over again.

Game of Shadows
Nov. 3rd, 2011 02:25 pmI find myself having conflicting feelings about this thing. On the one hand, Irene Adler aside, the first film did do wonderfully at putting Sherlock Holmes back into the public consciousness. I do think that's a good thing. On the other hand, Irene Adler. She could not have been presented any worse than she was, nd think that is a very bad thing.
I'm also a bit hesitant about Stephen Fry as Mycroft. Oh my. Yes. That could be so wonderful. But I just know that the studio have paid for Stephen Fry in a waistcoat, and not Stephen Fry playing a role that isn't himself. I half expect him to call someone 'my darling,' actually.
No, I don't think I'll be seeing this. You lot have fun with it, though. I just... I just can't.
