Sherlock Holmes Customer Reviews:
Good story, great picture, excellent sound
Just as the title of the review suggests, good story, great picture with blu-ray, and great sound. Very enjoyable movie.
Sherlock Holmes Bluray
I was slightly disappointed with this purchase. I've purchased from you guys before and I've gotten quality products but not this time. The Bluray that was sent to me was not the original Bluray that was in the box. It was a Bluray that was a rental off of Redbox, Blockbuster or some other DVD rental location. The Bluray itself says "Rental".
Excellent Movie.
I always look for movies with a great dialouge. This definatly fits the bill.
Sherlock Holmes
Basically the same as the earlier one, but also a lot different then i had expected with better special effects and more flare, and a different story line then i have know. the earlier film showed him a lot different, also Homes. Basically a good addition to my collection.
Dull
For me, the negatives outweigh the positives of this movie, and I found it dull overall.
To start with the positives, (a) I always enjoy historical British settings and (b) Holmes' powers of hyperperception and hyperinference (as much inductive as deductive) made me wonder if I couldn't do better myself if I tried harder.
But on the negative side, (a) I found the portrayal of Holmes as slovenly and borderline disfunctional to be hard to swallow, (b) I literally found it difficult to understand what Holme's was saying much of the time, due to his rapid yet quiet mumbling, (c) the plot is fairly childish and somewhat disjointed, and (d) the pace is slow, to the extent that it felt like it took foreover to finish the movie.
The bottom line is that I can't recommend this movie and I wish I had watched something else, though I recognize that some people may be able to focus on the positives enough to enjoy the movie.
