Yes, a true mystery, one worthy of my getting a 30 day ban from Facebook, for posting something I found.... On Facebook, and the mystery is, how drunk was Gary Oldman when he committed himself to this pile of crap? Answers on a postcard please, I am betting they would be more enjoyable than sitting through this drivel, I thought I could watch Gary Oldman til the cows came home, last night I found a cow pat on the porch, same consistency as the movie.

We all have our favourite Sherlock Holmes, but, if you're like me, then you can appreciate what different actors bring to the role, Ian Richardson, adds an eccentric, and quite endearing performance, backed up by Denholm Elliot, Brian Blessed And Martin Shaw to name but a few, it runs at about 75% to the book by ratio, and in my humble opinion, ranks alongside both Rathbone and Cushing, as putting a very entertaining stamp on Conan Doyle's fictional Detective marks out of ten?......Ten

When i first heard of this film, i thought: "ok, give it a try" and i was glad i did, great story and characters you can get to like, great acting, and of course an underrated Oliver Platt, all add to a generel mix of fun, and escapism for a time, in short a good movie with a great cast, and a nice plot twist at the end....Brilliant
