Review of Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame (2010) by John B — 16 Sep 2012
A very fun and creative movie that infuses a period martial arts tale with cues from Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes - with spectacular results. Dee's sword-breaker mace is one of the coolest cinematic weapons of late.
Parental note - the on-screen violence is surprisingly intense for a PG-13 rating.
