A "Reboot" of the Classic 
(2010-07-28)
Essentially a soft steampunk "reboot" of the classic Arthur Conan Doyle stories, "Sherlock Holmes" depicts the title character as a restless, obsessive mind in need of constant stimulation. Watson isn't as much the fool as he's been in previous cinematic incarnations, and the two know how to dish out combat and thrills 90's-style.
The movie is packed with juicy production design and writing - it might be worth a second viewing if you can get past squirming through unabashed depictions of demonic worship (despite whatever rationality you possess). Is Guy Ritchie throwing out rebellion against his former lover's (Madonna) embrace of Kaballah?
Missing Dolby 5.1 in English 
(2010-07-25)
Enjoyable movie, but my comments pertain to the Blu-ray disc. For some reason the studio decided to release this with English surround sound encoded in DTS only. french (and Spanish?) are encoded as Dolby 5.1, but not English. Those of us who prefer the Queen's tongue but are otherwise without DTS systems are plain out of luck. Sans DTS, we are left with Dolby Pro Logic, which is just not comparable, and on my otherwise well balanced system, sounds way too bass heavy for some reason.
A real drag, though the film looks fine otherwise.

I am sure I would have enjoyed itbut the dealer never shipped it to me
Great fun movie 
(2010-07-24)
This movie got some very harsh critiques but it's a fun movie. Downey and Law are great. The movie has interesting plot twists and good flow. It's not amazingly memorable but it's worth checking out.
"It's a long journey from here to the rope." (2010-07-24)
This might not be the best thing to watch if you have a preconceived idea of Holmes and Watson from the books or the classic "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" (1939) with Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce. You do not want to besmirch the image.
Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) in this presentation is just as observant as usual but is better informed of different disciplines that the original. He uses wily disguises and beautiful women to accomplish his goal of detecting and foiling the cunning bad guys. This looks like the pilot for a series or at least the beginning of a film series.
Dr. Watson (Jude Law) is more of second Holms but a different set of bad habits. He saves Holmes' bacon several times. However, Watson wants to go his own way and settle down with his newfound love Irene Adler (Rachel McAdams.)
This looks like the pilot for a series or at least the beginning of a film series. Holmes is bantering with the insidious Lord Blackwood (Mark Strong) who has recently risen from the dead and is determined to create a new world order. Little does he know that they are all pawns in a larger scheme by "you know who." Oh, all right I will say it Professor Moriarty.
This looks like the pilot for a series or at least the beginning of a film series.
Keep watching as the final credits role by. It is nice to see that they tie the names of the character and the actors together with pictures of the characters. I cannot stand disembodies names scrolling by. The is a picture of a naked man, handcuffed to the bead and the caption "Costumes designer jenny Beavan"
