Review of Mr. Holmes (2015) by Julie G — 17 Jan 2016
Regardless of your taste in films, don't dismiss Mr. Holmes as another dull, mannered period drama or aging boomer-pandering British trifle (cough, Marigold Hotel films, cough). Mr. Holmes's tautly layered storytelling (adapted gracefully by screenwriter Jeffrey Hatcher), unexpected warmth (with just a skosh of sentimentality) and eye-popping cinematography - aided by some smart editing and a gently breathtaking score - reveal that the greatest mysteries of all are uncovered from within ourselves.
