Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
View MoreThe film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
View MoreA great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
View MoreWhen you hear a film abut Sherlock Holmes, the main actor surely must be a complex personality ...and came down the "Joan" Watson...surprisingly, the film maker chose Lucy Liu..an Asian, an actress, and...well...even though she is an experienced actress, most people would agree that playing a "John Watson" role should be difficult for her. And...look at her...it's been six season, and still maintain a perfectly balanced act. When I say Lucy Liu play well, it means the other actors played well too... Well done. Perfect Sherlock Holmes adaptation.
View MoreEspecially Sherlock, but it's ALL bad. This is the only TV show I've ever seen like this, and since it's been like this since the show started I can only assume that it's done for some artistic purpose rather than through incompetence. Surely I'm not the only one with this problem!Aside from that, I like the show.
View MoreFormerly a big fan but it's become another humdrum prime time show. Watch BBC's Sherlock. The writing is brilliant. Johnny Lee Miller and Lucy Lui deserve better.
View MoreI gave it 7 because I liked the way Sherlock applies logic and interpretation, the details that he finds which every one else misses and I liked how it was depicted in these series. I liked the Moriarty being Jamie rather than James, I liked the Watson being Joan rather than John, I liked the father of Sherlock, Morland having a powerful characterization (WOW! John Noble, you did great!) especially how it worked out in Season 4 finale. That was brilliant. I cannot imagine anyone else other than John Noble in Elementary and I don't want to watch anyone else other than John Noble.Captain Gregson and Detective Bell are good additions as characters and cast.I would have given it a 10 but I did not like the way Sherlock treated his family i.e. Mycroft and Morland. They only have to make amends but he wouldn't budge even a little. And I didn't like the abrupt removal of Mycroft in Season 2 finale.I would have liked to see the budding romance between Mycroft and Joan elevate further, which was nipped in the said episode. I would like to see that Sherlock makes amends to the relation he maintains with Mycroft and Morland. Because the series depicts his emotional awkwardness, which I think Sherlock should acknowledge and correct himself to be complete as an individual. I would like to see Mycroft on screen again and rekindling his romance with Watson.And during every interrogation John Lee Miller has the same set of expressions when he comes out. I didn't like that either. Other than that I think John Lee Miller did very good.Overall, I would say that the casting was excellent and every one fares well.I am not venturing to compare this with Sherlock, because those two are entirely different interpretations and depictions.
