It' a wondeful film and every bit as engrossing as it's CGI cousins like Avatar.<br /><br />I have no special love for the Holmes legend, but lots of love for Downey Jr, so I think I was a bit biased.Fat Rolandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11374906684948810408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9134264.post-75900167088573885402010-03-09T13:34:00.601+00:002010-03-09T13:34:00.601+00:00A Prophet - can't really say because Cornerhou...A Prophet - can't really say because Cornerhouse's dodgy equipment robbed me of the last 45mins or so. I was enjoying it however the first act was considerably better than the second, which was starting to drag in my opinion. It segwayed from a taut emotional/psychological thriller into a more drawn out Goodfellas-style 'life as a gangster' thing which I'm beginning to think is getting a bit tired now. But I can't really say until i've seen it to the end. <br /><br />Precious = yes<br /><br />Single Man = yes<br /><br />Sherlock Holmes? Sherlock NOmes i think you'll find. talk about robbing one of our most precious of myths and subjecting it to Hollywood annihilation. Jeremy Brett must be spinning in his grave - Downey Jnrs portrayal misses the point of Sherlock completely but it is the script writers fault and Ritchie has to take a lot of the blame. This was Sherlock for the deerstalkers, not for the Conan Doyleists. the best thing about it was the music, the rest was all fluff and bumpf in a Dan Brownian Sherlock Holmes tick-list that just didn't do it for me, sir. <br /><br />That's enough of that then. But, seen Ponyo yet? There's a worthy inclusionDavid Hartleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12379941830996589111noreply@blogger.com
