It would seem that the cast had a blast making this typically action packed Guy Ritchie movie. It is assumed that we have a rudimentary backround of the classic character of the Victorian Sherlock Holmes created by Doyle. Robert Downey then shows us glimses of that Holmesian logic and deduction while literally spinning through 19th century London. It is far from the subdued Basil Rathbone, but boy is it fun...
A fast paced, well edited action movie. Now that Bond has had his revenge, He can display more of his sophistication and randiness in future episodes...
