When Holmes became Jackie chan

Although my favorite detective novelist is Agatha Christie, this does not prevent me from enjoying the thrilling and pleasant summer time of my youth with "Four Signatures" and "Study of Blood Letters".

"Astro Boy", "Transformers" and "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" have been remakes, and the faces in those memories have new but unfamiliar appearances. But I still went to see "The Detective Sherlock Holmes", who made him the most famous detective in the world, and the starring Jude Law is so handsome.

I tried to look at it without being critical. I tried to blend in with everyone's laughter, but I still couldn't stand the thin and gloomy British gentleman becoming a sloppy muscular man. The originally dull Watson turned into Holmes' most powerful life-saving straw. He appeared in time to deal with the aftermath, allowing him to rely on and assist him, as if he was a very good man with a sense of responsibility and doing things properly. And Holmes, who can play, is frizzy, humorous, has some quirks, is troubled and full of adventurous nature, finally turned into a big hero to save the world. There are some plausible emotional lines in it. This is like any Jackie Chan movie in its heyday. The deepest impression I leave is the kung fu that is full of joy, not the layers of reasoning. Maybe it can be called "Detective Story" or "Who is he", but no one cares, at least as a commercial film, it is much higher than our national film.

I tried to be more forgiving, and it was indeed a good film. The editing is excellent, and Gary's control of the rhythm is commendable. The 128-minute film length is intertwined, not at all dull, and it also contains all the popcorn elements, action, adventure, thriller, humor, reasoning, Love is very suitable for us to relax after a week of work. In the film, the slow process of Holmes thinking about how to defeat the opponent and the effect of fast forward and the flashback of Holmes’s reasoning process are my favorite parts. It at least reminds me of this super skillful and sometimes awkward sloppy man. A well-known detective with rigorous logic and outstanding observation ability.

This is not an adaptation of Conan Doyle’s original work. The lively and funny Sherlock Holmes no longer needs the dull Watson to support his splendor, so Watson is no longer a big green leaf under Jude Law's interpretation, but has become my favorite. The protagonist is equal to Robert Downey Jr. The sense of responsibility and meticulousness of retired military doctors is particularly noticeable in front of scruffy detectives. Perhaps I still love this traditional British style the most. And the best actor in the film is the cute dog who has been experimented as a white mouse by the detective several times. Although they all fainted, they all fainted with layers and connotations. Each time they fainted, they were unique and adorable. Praised.

Worthy of being a Warner product, Hollywood is just like that. Although there are enough people who disdain it, it can always let you see professional and sophisticated light. The Victorian England created in this film is moist and gloomy, and the Gothic temperament is permeated. The luxurious life and clothing of the nobles all make us immersed in the most legendary era. The last climax of the Broken Bridge fight was smooth and natural, which greatly increased the tension and excitement of the film.

Gayrich and Warner are the best guarantees of the quality of this film. This is definitely not a bad film, but it won't make me deeply like and remember it. I have watched it and then forgot it. This is what I will do.
