Finally I watched Sherlock Holmes, a very good movie, with good music and scenes. The two nominations for the Oscar soundtrack and art director are well deserved.
It’s said that the movie is too far away from the original. Although the overall plot has nothing to do with the original, there are many details related to the original. Gary is probably also a fan of Holmes. Reading the original is very helpful to watching the movie, similar to watching a tribute or a spoof Reminiscence the pleasure of the original movie when it comes to similar movies.
For example:
Sherlock Holmes’ action scene: It seems that Sherlock Holmes shouldn’t be an action movie, but Sherlock Holmes is very good at playing. In the list of Sherlock Holmes skills listed in "Studies of Blood", the Chinese students mentioned that Sherlock Holmes was "good at making sticks and being good at "Sword Boxing"; It is mentioned in "Returning Story" that Holmes used "Japanese wrestling" to throw Professor Moriarty to the bottom of the cliff.
Sherlock Holmes and the Underground Boxing Match: In "Four Signs", Holmes once said to the gatekeeper of the dead twins, "You don’t remember that four years ago we held a boxing match for you in the Allison field and fought you three rounds. Is that amateur boxer from here?". And the other person’s answer was: "Is it Mr. Sherlock Holmes? My God! How can I not recognize it? Instead of standing there and not saying a word, you just give me your chin. A punch, then I knew who you were!" It is not outrageous to say that Holmes often hit black punches.
Sherlock Holmes' disguise: The beggar at the beginning of the movie is obviously Sherlock Holmes. Watson's evaluation is that Sherlock Holmes's acting skills are the best in the UK. Holmes played an Italian priest in "The Last Case", an old book collector in "The Return", and an opium smoker in "The Man with Crooked Lips", but he played in "The Bohemia Scandal" Erin Adler's makeup was seen through, and Erin dressed as a man fooled Holmes.
Shooting in the house: This habit of Holmes is mentioned in the "Musgrave Ceremony": "Holmes sits in an armchair on a whim, uses his pistol and a hundred boxes of bullets, In the patriotic spirit of Queen Victoria, the opposite wall is dotted with bullet marks."
Sherlock Holmes’s living habits: The beginning of "The Musgrave Rite" may be the source of the scenes of Sherlock Holmes and Watson’s house. The original book mentions that Holmes "has a messy lifestyle", "the room is often filled with chemicals and criminal relics", "every day with the violin and books, almost motionless except from the sofa to the table." As for Watson, the original book mentions that he has a "bohemian temperament", and it's not surprising that a bohemian guy has a hobby of gambling. In addition, the original book mentions that Holmes has the habit of injecting cocaine, but if this scene is added, the rating of the movie will probably be problematic.
Heroine: The heroine is undoubtedly the combination of Irene Adler, the smartest and noble woman in the original book, and Isadora Klein, the most sinister and cunning woman. In addition, in "The Bohemia Scandal," Holmes got a picture of Irene Adler, which appeared on Holmes's table in the movie.
Gold watch: Find the pawnshop on the pocket watch to find the address of the deceased. This gold watch inference copied the research on Watson gold watch in "Four Signatures".
In addition, Watson's fiancée Mary is indeed a tutor, and Holmes does not deal with tutors once or twice. Professor Moriarty appeared at the end of the film, obviously waiting for a sequel. Professor Moriarty is a mathematician and physicist, and the author of "Asteroid Mechanics". It is completely logical for such a person to use the parts of the machine to make things. At the same time, there is reason to believe that in the sequel, Professor Moriarty’s right-hand man, Colonel Moran, Britain’s best shooter, will appear and take on the action scene. In "Empty House", Holmes and Watson worked together to subdue Colonel Moran. , This person is not an ordinary person who can fight.
