1.5/5
A real disappointment. Sherlock Holmes was a film that grew on me. I felt let down while leaving the theatre, but over the year I realized how great of a movie it really was. It was interesting, subtle, and my two favorite actors were absolutely dynamite together. Luckily that's not lost. Downey Jr. and Law are really great together. Unfortunately, the enormous story thats almost tedious to follow in the first is replaced with a story thats not really that large and made to be larger than it is. That's annoying. The actors in it besides the two leads were all fine but Moriarty in particular was an uninteresting character compared to his intrigue from the stories. And more importantly, Sherlock's attempt to save the entire city in the first is replaced with a petty issue of seeing essentially which of them is the more intelligent. It's okay i suppose, but it was a letdown for me.
