Not the great detective in my mind

In fact, no matter how I look at it, Jude Law is closer to the image of Sherlock Holmes in my mind. First of all, let’s not talk about personality traits, at least Sherlock Holmes should be such a thin, tall and smart person. I love Robert Jr., but in this film he is a little too “kind” and a little more affectionate. In my mind Sherlock Holmes has a hard time making mistakes and being fooled, and even more difficult to be manipulated (so he stays away from love). In order to create a kind of Sherlock Holmes story in the new era, the film has committed many "hard wounds", and even some subversion. But as a former Sherlock Holmes fan, I can still accept this change. The reason is very simple. I didn't take this film "seriously" at all. Robert still has a good taste, doesn't he?

    Completely stunned by the performances and lines of the two male protagonists, the witty words are in a row! This is a suspenseful detective movie that promotes science to dispel superstition. I don't know what the second part is about!
