Sherlock Holmes has always been the smartest man in the room… until now. There is a new criminal mastermind at large – Professor Moriarty – and not only is he Holmes’ intellectual equal, but his capacity for evil, coupled with a complete lack of conscience, may actually give him an advantage over the renowned detective. However, some characters spoke too quickly and scenes would flash by to fast, but between Robert Downey’s performance, the humorous winks, and the great visual and especially sound effects, Guy Ritchie won again with his creativity in many special effects of this film.
On the other hand, Sherlock almost died in a scene with his enemy but he shows us even that cleverly camouflaged in a suit and reappearing some it sounds a bit illogical after a scene unquestionably dangerous, so the enemy dies? Is a response we will not know until there is possibly a third part and the question is? Are you being willing to see it?
