Overall a good film. Not the best I have seen recently however the story line was compelling and the use of humor was appropriate yet not over the top. Some scenes were dark but I credit that toward the depiction of the time period. The only real complaint I had was that some of the action scenes and camera movement was a little fast which made the scene hard to follow. I did however enjoy the slow motion thoughts of Holmes... clever! Overall, I would recommend as a "should see" not sure if it is one I will purchase down the road though.
