He has a "keen mustache" God I love your Dad. I miss this camera set up!

[GabnDad]

@ChrisStuckmann I know, I miss it too... I just got freaked over the copyright issue, thus the less "keen" logo set we use now.

I honestly thought the movie was amazing - a bit too long- but the overall story and casting was very good :D

I really liked listening to your review on the movie, but I do have one quick question. At the end of your review, you mentioned Brad Pitt as Moriarty (I think I spelt his name wrong XD ), and I was just wondering where you heard that from?

I'm just wondering because I'm already excited and becoming impatient for the 2nd movie and I was curious who was going to be casted as Moriarty.

[GabnDad]

Thanks! I read a lot about movie news, and have read the Pitt thing mentioned by several sources. Guy Ritchie loves Pitt, and intentionally didn't reveal the Moriarty actor in #1 so that hopefully he can start using Pitt in #2! If you Google Holmes/Pitt/Moriarity/Ritchie, you should find something about it. ;)

Glad you enjoyed it guys. I thought it was a great deal of fun. You guys have great chemistry in front of the camera btw. I wish my dad would want to do that sort of thing. Bastard lol. Great review. Check out my review when you get the chance.

[GabnDad]

Of course I checked yours out, almost right away! ;) The Strong voice suits you; I'd like to try it so people will listen to me...

now I cant wait to see this movie. have you rated "The Lovely Bones" movie? I loved it.

[DarrylCross]

Excellent review. I agree with the Dad (for lack of another name to call him) that this is the Sherlock as written by Arthur Conan Doyle. It was refreshing to see more of his character fleshed out the typical two-dimensional deer stalker cap and pipe, with magnifying glass version of Holmes that is so often seen nowadays.

I absolutely loved this movie.

Great review!!!  I thought the lead characters were wrong!!

I'm a fan of the books!! lol Sherlock Holmes was a gentleman

and professional at all times and Dr. Watson was older and

a war veteran!! I'm surprised I liked the movie!! I still prefer

Basil Rathbone!! lol Keep up the great work!!

[RullyisJRM]

A rating system would be fantastic! I hope you guys somehow figure out how to implement one without it being too distracting. Maybe one similar to Roger Ebert? He uses stars -- out of 4 to be exact.

A rating system isn't necessary for you guys, I don't think, but it could be a neat idea. :) I support your choice 100%.

great review

I really enjoyed this film

it was well done

[Baronesslace]

Actor's Robert Downey Jr./HOLMES and Jude Law/WATSON done an splendidly exciting protrayal of the fame duo Crime Investigators: I like their "true" intake of the characters for the Icon writter Sir Conan Doyle Classic books finally fits to the roles that Prod/Director Guy Richie tried to stay true with. The only thing I found out of step is HOLMES Lab/I don't think his lab would be out of place/disarray...'cause everything to him must be in order. Anyway, great review GAB & DAD, your awesome!
