Sherlock Holmes
I believe no one's memories of sherlock holmes will be like the one in the movie. This is so lock stock barrel style and snatch style, to do this, this sherlock guy must change to suit this kind of movie. I don't have much mermory of how sherlock needs to be, thus it doens't really affect me. Movie started with action rightaway, horse carriage chasing Robert Downey as Sherlock, he evaded them and met up with Jude Law as Dr Watson. They manage to stop a human sacrifice where this baddie Mark Strong as Lord Blackwood is doing. SM saved W from a shard where Blackwood usually used. Then the police came and led B away.
B scheduled to be executed 3 months later. Meanwhile, SM is bored without any case. W told SM that he have plans to marry Mary and will probably won't be working with him anymore. Then came the day of execution, where B requested to see SM and told him that there will be 3 more deaths. B was hanged and pronouced dead by W. Soon after that, SM met with Rachel Mcadams as Irene, a con woman which SM likes. She asked SM to find a man for him and gave him a sum of $. SM trailed her in disguise and found she was with a man.
3 days after B was executed, police informed that his tomb was shattered. SM and W arrived to the tomb area, there they found the body in the coffin was a red hair midget. SM found a pocket watch and then from it, found the home of the midget. In there, there were chemical experiments and also came 3 thugs, arriving to destroy the evidences. A fight ensued which SM and W were victorious but both were led away by police for property damage. Mary came to bail W but SM was led away to some house, apparently like the HQ of the temple of the four order. Their leaders Sir thomas and Lord coward, told SM that B was a former member. Though SM was blindfolded all the way, as the so good SM, he told every single details of what he hear and smell, thus deducing who they were. He rejected their offer to take down B and rather pursue the case in his own interest.
As SM and W investigate more, 2 senior members died, one in a tub and one burnt to death in spontaneous combustion mode. B during one of the order meeting took power, revealing Lord Coward as his ally. B wants the order to force England to retake United States. While LC issued a warrant on SM, SM and W went to an industrial slaughterhouse after finding more clues. At there, they were forced to save Irene at a conveyor belt but while escaping, SM escaped a explosive blast but W kena. SM hid himself and think of what B's plan was. Somehow he wanted to cast a spell on Sphinx, and its animal constituent are ox, man, eagle and lion. The last, lion will be the british parliament. Knowing that. SM allowed the police to capture him thus leading him to LC. LC abi too LL, told SM of B's plan at the parliament. SM then escaped by diving into River Thames.
W recovered. SM, W and Irene went into the sewers of the Parliament. They found the device where B going to use to inject deadly gases into the parliament. While Irene try to remove the part of the device that will deliver the gas, SM and W dealth with more baddies. Then the final showdown between SM and B happen at Tower bridge, SM won. Irene told SM that tha man she was with was Professor Moraity, as brilliant as him but more pai lang. Overall, it was entertaining with action and as what detective mysteries do, they will explained what happens later on things you though how can it be and with some humour. 7/10
