I’ve been a Sherlock Holmes fan ever since I read Arthur Conan Doyle’s first book “A Study in Scarlet“.  Naturally, when I saw the poster for a new Sherlock Holmes movie starring Jude Law and Robert Downey Jr, I was ever eager to watch it.

Hubby brought home the DVD and we just finished watching it.  Suffice to say that it was the grossest bastardisation of characters ever.  I should have figured that something like this would have happened when I spied that Robert Downey Jr was playing Holmes.  The new Holmes is typical of the characters that we’ve come to associate him with.

After getting over the initial shock, I must say that as far as entertainment value goes, the movie serves its purpose.  As long as you can put out of your head your expectations of what Holmes and Watson are supposed to be like, you should enjoy the movie.
