LOVEFiLM Review Sherlock Holmes - A Game of Shadows

  • 4 stars out of 5  

    By Andy Gibbons from LOVEFiLM

    Guy Ritchie reteams with Robert Downey Jr. for his second Sherlock Holmes film, and just like the first, it packs in the fun and action with entertaining results.

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    We saw this the day after it was released in the UK and were blown away!

    This film was better than we could have possibly imagined, and from what I can remember, it is very close to the original final conflict between Holmes & Moriarty! (No spoilers here!)

    The costumes and the scenery was fantastic and Guy Ritchie surpassed himself with the direction!

    This is a must see film for every Holmes fan, if you enjoyed the first film, then you're gonna love this one!

    not quite as good as the first one but still a really great film. Downey jr will have you chuckling away just like in the previous & the action & plot are great too

  • Cartoon Holmes

    Rated - 1.5 stars  
    By ChrisYiddo (2 reviews) , 24 Apr 2013
    This is a cartoon strip Sherlock Holmes film, for anyone that doesn't want to think too hard. I personally found it shallow and formulaic. Didn't like Downey Jr as Holmes at all, which obviously inhibited my appreciation of the film. Switched it off after 30 minutes.

  • Utter Tripe

    Rated - 0.5 stars

    Painful is accurate: terrible. All silly action and no plot. Don't waste your time on this film, there are much better mysteries out there.

  • Surprisingly good

    Rated - 3.5 stars  
    By Jillpip (2 reviews) , 10 Apr 2013
    I actually liked this one better than the first. I think its because the film showed the characters more in depth and developed the story of Sherlock Holmes more. The introduction of Sherlocks Nemisis and the has he really died, means I cannot wait for he next film.
