We went to see the midnight showing, my wife and I, and our three kids, ages13,11,and 9. Personally, I thought we were crazy, but we had all read the books and it was pretty neat doing something like that as a family. I was a little worried about how all the killing in the story would be shown, but I was pleasantly surprised at how well it was portrayed. Obviously the story has violence in it, but they did not show much gore or unnecessary violence, which made me feel better about it. It was very true to the book, which was nice also. My children all loved it and cannot wait for the next movies to come out. It is a rare event to be able to see a movie together as a family and all be entertained. I would give it the highest marks.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Excellent re-telling of classic story

The new Sherlock Holmes was incredible. Superb acting by all, expecially Jude Law. Story was fast-moving and interesting with no slow parts. Some scenes were a little intense for young kids, but, thats why it was PG-13. Cinematography was incredible too with a very real-looking London. The twists were in the classic Holmes style with his intelligence always winning. Very good movie all around.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
