A superior sequel

"I'm knee-deep in the single most important case of my career."

Even though it competed against Avatar during its theatrical run, 2009's Sherlock Holmes grossed in excess of $500 million at the worldwide box office, making a sequel a high priority for Warner Brothers. Arriving two years after its predecessor, 2011's Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows is a well-realised follow-up tha... read more

And here we are again, yet another sequel of a movie that did so well the first time. Guess what? It is an excellent sequel. You simply put two elements, and not necessarily two opposite elements, and the chemical reaction between them causes an enormous explosion on the BIG screen.

"With Dr Watson getting married, Sherlock Holmes has to convince him that he is needed for his latest case, tracking down the genius of Professor Moriarty. Guy Ritchie's sequel is better than the original thanks to a clever script and the growing bond between Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law, making their scenes both a delight to watch and the backbone to the film. Some great set pieces and a terrific supporting cast makes this just pure, unadulterated fun."
