Sherlock Holmes and Dr.Watson join forces to bring down their fiercest adversary, Professor Moriarty.
I loved the first movie, 4 STARS of anybody's time but for some reason this isn't even though it's a romp at times, we know nearly all the characters apart from Mycroft Holmes (Stephen Fry), Sebastian Moran who is Moriarty's evil henchman (Paul Anderson) and Moriarty himself (Jared Harris, I only knew him as Dr.Ashford from Resident Evil: Apocalypse) but he's bloody well cast as the evil Professor.....
The story revolves around Moriarty's attempt to start World War 1 a lot earlier than it officially did and it's a damn good attempt, the story is fast paced (the set piece in the forest in Germany is particularly well done) but things don't get going until quite a bit into the movie, good action, good humour but the new lead actress is distracting (Noomi Rapace) but not in a good way but Holmes and Watson perform brilliantly together and it's a good ending but at times a little far fetched. Hoping for more though......
