Sherlock Holmes Ratings & Reviews
- jkljlk11975 maart 2026"You see, but you do not observe. The distinction is clear."
- Zokkiie2 januari 2026This version of Sherlock Holmes is fast, flashy, and a lot of fun. It’s not the classic cozy mystery style, but the chemistry and energy keep it entertaining. Basil Rathbone is still my favorite Holmes, but RDJ does a good job with a more modern, rough-around-the-edges take
- Dave9 juni 2025After my 15th watch I find this movie still keeps my attention. Sherlock is very interesting and the way they show his mind working with his monologue is pretty cool.

- thomasrogers7536 oktober 2025Wait so was his plan to kill everyone with a geeb?
- Ty Leet31 december 2025Hot take Robert Downey Jr. is one of my favorite Sherlocks.
- Andrew Clout4 juli 2025Brilliant….close to exceptional.
- Richard9 november 2025Guy Ritchie grabs Conan Doyle’s detective and gives him a Victorian makeover with bare knuckle brawls, kinetic edits and Robert Downey Jr. monologuing like a caffeinated chess master. It’s not your granddad’s Holmes, it’s Holmes as a quirky action hero with a bruised intellect and a bruising right hook. Jude Law’s Watson is no bumbling sidekick, he’s sharp, loyal and ready to throw down. Rachel McAdams adds intrigue as Irene Adler and Mark Strong broods his way through occult villainy like he’s auditioning for a Hammer horror reboot. The pacing? Fast. The visuals? Grimy and gorgeous. The plot? A twisty blend of logic and thaumaturgy. It’s not textbook Holmes, but it’s fun and the chemistry between Downey and Law makes it work. You liked the new take and rightly so. It’s a reinvention that respects the source while gleefully tossing it into a steampunk blender.
- Shaydeknight21 oktober 2025It's not Sherlock Holmes in the traditional sense, but then again, neither was the BBC version with Cumberbatch and Freeman, and that worked just fine. Robert Downey Jr.'s accent never quite lands, though, it's off centre by about five degrees. If you watch this as a quirky reinterpretation of Doyle's detective rather than a faithful adaptation, it's entertaining enough. But purists will likely bristle. Even Basil Rathbone's wartime interpretations felt closer to the spirit of the books. Ritchie's trademark quick-cut style, full of whooshing transitions and kinetic edits, feels too modern for the setting. The late Victorian grime and texture are beautifully realized, but the pacing and visual energy clash with it. It was too fast with too much CGI London in the background. You get tired of all the flashbacks, it's like slogging through the same material over again. That said, the plot is clever and thematically fitting. It's steeped in the late Victorian fascination with thaumaturgy, the occult, and secret societies. The writing team deserves credit for that touch of authenticity amid the stylized chaos. So, it's a decent enough popcorn film for a rainy afternoon. But if you actually LIKE Sherlock Holmes, it might just be better to turn the TV off and read one his stories.
- Mister Arn18 mei 2025In the 2009 film Sherlock Holmes, the story departs from the traditional portrayal of the character. It leans more on action rather than logic to propel the plot, transforming Holmes into more of a superhero than a traditional detective. This intriguing twist, which may not sit well with purists, succeeds largely due to Robert Downey Jr.'s performance, which brings a new energy and charisma to the character.
