From the dreary colours that dominate the film, to the dismal settings, Sherlock Holmes is a delight for those who like it hard, like it raw. That includes me.
When you remember Jeremy Brett from the BBC Sherlock Holmes series, then Robert Downey Jr comes across as a filthy, rude and physical version of what good Sir Arthur Conan Doyle must have visualized him to be. But hats off to Guy Ritchie, I loved Sherlock the way he was in the film. I wouldn’t have minded another mano e mano fight situation where Sherlock uses his incredible genius to smash the baddy to a pulp. Yeah…
Overall I was very happy, I just think the storyline was slightly weak, but there is great potential for a sequel which weaves physical violence with a sharp typical Arthur Conan Doyle story, and delivers with devastating effect.

How can single strokes define him, he needed many lines repeated and enlarged to show his aura. He is a magnification of normal people, he is bigger than life, in fact for most Indians he is the biggest. The Big B. The picture in my head of Amitabh Bachchan is of the bell bottomed collar up tall angry young man who won the hearts of every Indian. That's who he is in this drawing. The amazing part is that even at 60+, he continues to win the hearts of every Indian.
