Sherlock Homles



Absolutely loved it :) Didnt expect much though, since i didnt find the trailors to be as attractive. Nevertheless, must say, RObert Downey Jr. as Sherlock Holmes completely rocks. I have always loved him since Iron Man. Now love him even more :D

Plot:

The devil in the movie is Lord Blackwood, who is heavily into some kinda black magic and is incessantly into human sacrifice. Sherlock Holmes is called upon to stop the murders. The duo,Sherlock with Dr Watson(Jude Law) manages to put Lord Blackwood behind bars. He is goin to be hanged to deadth, before which he makes his last wish, and that is to see Sherlock for the last time. Meanwhile there is someone else who wants to trap Sherlock and sends a lady as a messenger for a contract.A new job to find out a man missing. Sherlock smells something fishy in it, and follows her to find out more.

Meanwhile, Blackwood before prosecution, warns Sherlock that there are 3 more deadth awaiting which will change the nature of the world. A few days after Blackwood's funeral, there is a news around, that Blackwood rose from his grave. Police investigate along with Sherlock to dig out from the grave, only to raise more eyebrows. Dr. Watson meanwhile plans gettin married while the case and frenship keeps him engaged.

This follows a series of chase to solve the mystery and the many difficulties they face on the way to find the truth behind all the unsolved happenings. In one of the occassions, Sherlock is taken to the father of Blackwood, where he gets some more information, and decides to take the case on his own stride. Soon after, Blackwood murders his own father and summons the court to bring forward his plans to rule over the world with his deadly magic, and persuades the people to follow his ways and get ready to witness a complete change in the ways of nature, where the control will be in his hands.

The mystery was kept so well covered, that even Sherlock cudnt decipher it untill he himself followed the rules of black magic to an extent, where he got his more detailed clues.Thenafter continues a few further chase and escape sequences ultimately solving all the mysteries with science.

I would not like to unfold all the mysteries in my blog. It definately deserves a watch and moreover smart,witty and intelligent Sherlock speaking out to you himself is any given day more fun :)

Final Verdict:

The retro look of the movie, where u can see the London Bridge in making :) Also the more than a narrator role of Dr. Watson for Sherlock Holmes, feels amazing. Completely smitten over my Robert Downey Jr. :) A must watch for the lovers of detective stories.

My Rating: 3.5/5
