Sherlock Holmes (2009 Guy Ritchie)

I think Guy Ritchie's incarnation of Sherlock Holmes to be the worst on film; and I think Sir Arthur would agree with me. Over-edited, over-CGIed film is fairly exhausting. Good people though - Downey, Jude Law, Mark Strong, Rachel McAdams, Eddie Marsan, Kelly Reilly, James Fox, Clive Russell. Robert Maillet is the French juggernaut.

Good music from Hans Zimmer and photography by Philippe Rousselot. The dockside blowing up is rather beautifully filmed.
