"How often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." Sherlock Holmes


Last night my hubby and I went to see the new Sherlock Holmes movie. I really liked it. Watson (Jude Law) made a great Watson, in love and wanting to propose marriage and "move on" from his bachelorhood with Holmes. Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) character was really fleshed out too. Not only did he solve crimes but he dabbled in boxing, scientific investigation and even a bit of alcohol. And Lord Blackwell (Mark Strong) made a fantastic villian! He is willing to murder women, men, even his father in an attempt to try to takeover "the world" as he finds it. The special effects and filmography of creating an 1800's England is remarlable. Definitely a two thumbs up movie!
