Review of Sherlock Holmes (2009) by Robertpt — 27 Dec 2009
Very little to be positive about in this movie. Downey does a good job of giving life to a Sherlock character that is terribly written. Downey is funny in many places but that is a fault not a plus. Law is good as Watson and the character is decently written.
McAdams as the female lead is terrible in a terrible role. The stars did not have much to work with. The story is lame (poor Harry Potter ripoff - 2 males and female chasing a nether-world villain), the staging is uninspired and the costuming is weak.
Save your money and avoid at all costs.
