I am such a gigantic Robert Downey Jr. fan already, I really didn’t think I could love him more.
Then I saw Sherlock Holmes- A Game of Shadows.
WOW!!!! I can’t say enough good things about this movie. Guy Richie does a tremendous job with this one. Not only is it visually stunning at every turn but he truly captures the grittiness of this time in London. Just grey and dark and mysterious. RDJ is one amazing actor. This turn you see so many more facets of Sherlock. And the true friendship between him and Watson just shines. Jude Law is wonderful as well. The chemistry is so great between them. You can tell they are friends in real life.
This movie takes the essence of all of the great Sherlock novels and puts it on the screen. To see the rivalry and game between Moriarty and Sherlock was fantastic. To see that battle of wits and diabolicalness unfold as beautifully as it was done in this film gives new meaning to “Art”. GO SEE THIS MOVIE!!!
