Review of Mr. Holmes (2015) by Carl W — 30 Aug 2015
A lovely and elegiac movie that, judged on its own merits, soars. Give Laura Linney an Oscar already! You will, however, not love it if you MUST compare McKellan's nuanced performance with the equally yet different mania brought to the younger Holmes by Mr.
Cumberbatch and the sexy Jonny Lee Miller. Again, on its own terms, it's a delight, and the young Milo Parker's eyes are our windows into these lovely performances.
