If you're in the mood for slick, action-packed entertainment with genuine wit and chemistry, absolutely watch this tonight—Downey Jr. and Law make a dynamite duo, and Moriarty as the intellectual dark mirror to Holmes is exactly the kind of worthy adversary that elevates the whole thing. Just go in knowing you're getting a bombastic, gadget-laden blockbuster rather than a faithful Conan Doyle adaptation, and you'll have a blast.

Plot

There is a new criminal mastermind at large (Professor Moriarty) and not only is he Holmes’ intellectual equal, but his capacity for evil and lack of conscience may give him an advantage over the detective.

Director: Guy Ritchie
