Young Sherlock Holmes

This movie was just plain… awesome.

In the film, we follow a young Watson and his adventures with an intelligent but misunderstood young Sherlock.

Everything, absolutely everything, you would have wanted this movie to be was present:

  • It was full of quotes, humor and campiness
  • There was plenty of complex murder mystery to be unravelled
  • There were some crazy hallucination scenes, including young Watson being sabotaged by pastries with faces
  • Had a good amount of creepiness
  • A shocking twist when the mystery villain is revealed
  • Yes, it will even be at times laughable (in a good way)
  • Heck, there’s even some entertaining action and adventure

It was also one of the first movies to use CGI, and it looks fine to this day. I also liked how this movie didn’t focus specifically on Holmes: it focused on Watson’s recollections of their adventures. Watch it. You’ll have a ton of fun.

RATING: 8/10

★★★★★★★★☆☆
