Good Enough for the Most Discriminating Taste
PostedDecember 27, 2009
MovieMan2001
This is the best movie I've seen since Star Trek -- and every bit as good! I invited 5 others to see it with me and we all thought it was great. The banter between Holmes and Watson was razor sharp and hilarious. The villain was very bad and very scary (and even HE was not the ULTIMATE bad guy!). Holmes' pre-fight step-by-step visualizations were fantastic. I hope this is the beginning of a new series of movies (likewise for the new Star Trek). I am recommending Sherlock Holmes to all my friends and acquaintances.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Best Re-Watchable Movie of the Year!

This sequel was so good that I went out and purchased both films on DVD so that I can watch both of them whenever I want (and I WILL want to at least once a year)!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The New Franchise Explodes Into Action...
PostedMay 12, 2009
MovieMan2001
Possibly the best Star Trek movie ever! Humor (well delivered and timed perfectly with due respect to the original show), character origins and development, fast-paced and often explosive action makes the 2 hrs 6 min pass very quickly. The whole "main" cast rocks and makes this a really fun outing. The purists will recoil at the rearranged timeline (but, thankfully, I rarely go to movies with them). Is this the beginning of something??? Star Trek: The New Original Generation? Star Trek: The Reprise Missions? Star Trek: The Next Previous Generation (Heroes' Sylar would have to develop Hiro's time travel ability to keep up with roles in both series!)? At least, are there movie sequels in the offing?
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Good, but not Great Amusement
PostedMay 12, 2009
MovieMan2001
Not the best of the X-Men series, but definitely worth watching. Learning Wolverine's history was great fun and the to-the-death sibling rivalry was intense. Family values win out once again, as brotherly love and loyalty ultimately triumph (even if they can't stand each other most of the time!) when they join forces to overcome a greater evil.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
