Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

Sherlock Homes: A Game of Shadows, just debuted into theaters on Friday, and already it looks like it could be yet another one of those big box office disappointments that have been ever so much populating this year as a depressing little fact that people utterly tired and exhausted of sequels, remakes, reboots and other films of the sort. People are just tired of it. We want new kinds of movies. Still, it actually managed to be a fairly decent sequel to a fairly decent movie, with a much better villain, good action sequences, and a almost exhausting amount of slow-motion sequences that will give you a sure headache by the time the whole thing is done and over with, but so far, it still appears that it is going to be a very average franchise. So: The usual content is here, just like the original: Frequent and very intense action violence, some grisly images of dead bodies, one very crude scene containing brief nudity, frequent drinking, smoking and one drug reference. Also, there is a bit more profanity than the original, but it is still very infrequent so that it barely matters. So, if you liked the original, definitely check this one out if you can get the chance to do so this Christmas season, Just don't expect the third one to be a masterpiece, either.

Good Movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I watched this with my friends on December 21, 2011 and we all loved it. But that doesn't mean that movies won't have down sides to it (meaning everything has pros and cons). There are some parts where you see some bloody stains on bodys after an amazing, intense action scene. Lots of destrucion on structures and buildings. A ton of slow motion moments (even when the main hero plans out how to take out certain villan[s]). There is even a scene where a man is naked (only showing his chest, back, arms, and head gladely). If you like movies that will make you think, movies with amazing slow-motion scenes, and movies with great comedy; then watch this movie 100%.

I have found this movie to be a great rendition of the Sherlock Holmes series and how Sir Arthur Conan Doyle would've wanted his character to be like. I have seen it three times and absolutely love it. Better than the first in my opinion (and I loved the first). A true fan of the Holmes series and all things Sherlock would enjoy this movie. Especially if you are into filming. The overall shooting, acting, and special effects of this film are magnificent. Guy Ritchie (director) has done an excellent job. All of the camera angles, slow motion sequences, and everything are second to none. There are a few sequences of intense violence, that are not that graphic. Very mild language, little bit of nudity, and a bit of drugs (which is to be expected since it is Sherlock Holmes we're talking about). Plenty of humor, fun, good morals, and cleverness. Overall an excellent movie that I recommend anyone to see. It'll keep your mind enthralled and exuberated.
