Sherlock Holmes

Witty humor and a dark atmosphere permeate Guy Ritchie's well-paced, creative, entertaining film based on Sir Conan Doyle's classic in which brilliant, brooding, calculating, fist-wielding, mischievous, observant British detective Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey, Jr.) and his longtime sidekick Dr. John Watson (Jude Law), who is in love with a beautiful woman (Kelly Reilly), begin investigating the bizarre murders of two prominent English officials (James Fox and William Hope) in 1800s London with the help of a Scotland Yard inspector (Eddie Marsan) and gorgeous woman (Rachel McAdams) after a power-hungry Parliament lord (Mark Strong) allegedly uses the black arts to return from the dead and the hangman's noose.
