Customer Reviews

Mycroft Holmes is fond of women, and it shows.

Watson (Jude Law) and Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) are at it once more, and the game is afoot. Do not think of this as a sequel to the 2009 movie or relating to the books. It is more of a tongue-in-cheek Bond with lots of action. Moriarty (Jared Harris) is his megalomaniac self. We get to travel all over Europe in 1891 or a reasonable facsimile. The year is 1891. France and Germany are at each other's throats. There is a series of bombings. Most people pin it on anarchists. But Holmes has a different theory; we know what that theory is. We get to go along as Holmes proves his theory. What about Dr. Watson? Well, it seems he's getting married. Will this throw a wrench into the works? And how could the new Mrs. Watson have felt that Sherlock's brother is fond of her? One thing I appreciate in movies is placing the names of the actors/characters next to their picture so we are sure who they are.
