I love a mystery. And a mystery with Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson - even better. But what a stinker! I couldn't even make it all the way through this bomb. I have loved Robert Downey, Jr. since Heart and Souls - and while I am not a big fan of Jude Law - I was willing to take a chance on this film. I should have know that anyone with the poor sense to marry Madonna would be incapable of directing a decent detective movie. The whole setting was bleak and dirty, as I imagine London must have been in the late nineteenth century, but honestly! I wanted to give everything a good scrubbing. I watched for about an hour and fifteen minutes and gave up - boring! I'm going to try to finish it tonight.
