Fun to watch but nothing special
This is predictable beyond belief. As are most comic book films. A doctor has a big predicament (there's always some trouble at the beginning) and then has to become all-powerful to overcome this. Literally that's pretty much the entire storyline - it's not particularly intelligent. That being said, the graphics are pretty stunning, the scenes showing Benedict Cumberbatch running from one dimension to another is absolutely breathtaking. It feels on a higher scale than other Marvel films in terms of cinematography.

Amazing stories
Sherlock's deduction skills
The game is a foot
A very cool modern setting for the Sherlock character. This has great stories with some very talented actors. I like the way it uses technology in the show as well. Probably one of the BBC most successful shows.

CGI
Marvels consistency isn't affected by this movie
Marvel movies are becoming a bit formulaic at this point, but this one manages to do some new things and is an enjoyable watch. The cast all work well in their respective roles, the CGI is incredible and the script is decent.

The first and second seasons are my favorite. Cumberbatch and Freeman are perfect as these characters, and I love their chemistry together. All the major players are fantastic, and don't even get me started on Andrew Scott as Moriarty. The very first episode pulled me in and it never let up from there.
David McK (3232 KP) rated Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows (2011) in Movies
Jan 18, 2024
More or less direct sequel to the first Robert Downey Jr Sherlock Holmes movie, that again continues the unfortunate trend of an over-reliance of slow motion scenes, and slapstick based around Holmes being in disguise.
Better than the first, yes, but nowhere near as good as the BBC Benedict Cumberbatch adaptations, or even of NBCs Elementary.

The timestone? Yep, was essential to resolving Infinity War in Endgame
<original review below>
The film that introduced magic (and the Time Stone, which will probably be essential to resolving Infinity War in Endgame), in which Benedict Cumberbatch plays Benedict Cumberbatch as the future Sorcerer Supreme, with Tilda Swinton as the current holder of that title.
As an aside: that was actually a cause of controversy at the time: why not cast an Asian or Eastern actor in that role instead of whitewashing it? went the argument.
The plot may also seem to be a reprise of Iron Man: rich, arrogant, privileged white man suffers personal catastrophe and heads East, returning a changed man. What sets this apart, however, is the somewhat psychedelic effects that often seem to owe more than a bit to Christopher Nolan's movie Inception!

MissCagey (2652 KP) rated Patrick Melrose in TV
Jul 25, 2018
An adaptation of the novels of Edward St Aubyn. Patrick Melrose comes from a rich family but after suffering abuse from his father he is reliant on drugs and alcohol which effects his relationships with others. Benedict Cumberbatch acts his socks off and is brilliant, the support actors are brilliant too. There is a bit of toing and froing between past and present so you do need to concentrate!
