Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows - Hollywood

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows (2011)

Time:- 129 min

Gener: Action | Adventure | Crime | Mystery | Thriller

Sherlock Holmes and his sidekick Dr. Watson join forces to outwit and bring down their fiercest adversary, Professor Moriarty.

Director: Guy Ritchie

Stars: Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law, Jared Harris, Rachel McAdams, Noomi Rapace, Stephen Fry, Eddie Marsan

THE BUZZ: Aside from the hokey supernatural stuff and the underutilization of Rachel McAdams, I thought Guy Ritchie did a bang-up job in delivering the world of Arthur Conan Doyle to present-day fans and newbies alike (you can imagine that the presence of RDJ was a gateway into all things Holmes for many of the people that made the first movie a runaway worldwide hit). Having the Holmes Bros. and Watson chase Prof. Moriarty across Europe is a great storyline pick, and I cannot wait to see what Jared Harris from "Mad Men" brings to the sequel (he was the surprise - and quite fitting - pick to play Holmes's chief nemesis) as well as Noomi Rapace in her first major post-Lisbeth role. If a second sequel is made, doesn't that length of time qualify Holmes and Watson for a common law marriage?
