Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

01/05/2012

Movie  I just Saw

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

I had to take out the part of me that resists lengthy action films, because that’s what this one is.  In fact that’s how I got the opportunity to see Young Adult- because I stepped out to go to the bathroom on purpose and I watched it for thirty minutes

-Takes place in a cool Swedish castle with a giant water dam coming out the side of it

-Thumbs up that the actress from “The Girl from the Dragon Tattoo” plays the gypsy

-There’s a lot of slow motion fight scenes which I’m gonna steal from  my friend to say that “how can you have a mystery like Sherlock Holmes combined with Guy Ricchie competing with Mission Impossible?”

-Long, long, long.  Be prepared to yawn, forgive your dad who falls asleep next to you for twenty minutes,

-take bathroom breaks.

-Didn’t they learn from the first time not to keep Rachel McAdams in this movie?

-I walked out when I saw she was in it again, but then when I came back she was gone.  Guess they came around too and went with better instincts- dRagon tattoo girl.

-Scenery was great, made me wanna go to Sweden or wherever it was filmed.

j-Made me wanna watch David Blain again when I watched Robert Downey Jr. escape precarious circumstances

i didn't think the movie seemed long at all.
there is enough action going on throughout the movie to keep you engaged the whole time.

I like the old Sherlock Holmes movies so I wasn't a fan of the first one. I'll check this one out when it goes to Redbox.

I'm not sure if that one is on my Netflix queue but if not I'll add it. I've been getting all the black & white ones from Netflix.

Okay I'll definitely look for it. No I haven't seen that one or even heard of it.

I liked it, but I think I'm biased because I like Robert Downey Jr. I was glad Rachel McAdams didn't play a major roll in the movie.
