Sherlock Holmes: Mare of the Night

Must see film to see a shattered hero at the end of his era and the past that haunts him. Creative writing and a super cool villain that you will remember! Happy to encourage family and friends to see this work of art! Congratulations to the cast and crew for their contribution to this film. Small independent films need everyone's support now more than ever so do what you can to support the industry and all the talent that works so hard to create art that they are obviously passionate about. This film will leave you thinking about other iconic heroes and what their story would be if they were real people.

Definitely, and eye opening experience into the Psychological world of Sherlock Holmes. Enjoyed every suspenseful scene. Mr. Best was at his finest. Bravo work to cast and crew that made this film. Can't wait for Chapter 2. Seriously!! This movie was so beautifully done. I TRULY feel this is nothing short of a cinematic masterpiece-a breathtaking exploration of time, memory, and the human experience. This film ingeniously intertwines various timeframes, weaving together lives and emotions in a way that feels profoundly nostalgic and universally relatable. It's a deeply sentimental journey that mirrors our own experiences, drawing parallels to the joys, struggles, and fleeting moments that define us all. Bravo work C. J. You done it again...

Growing up I was never a Sherlock fan but after seeing this movie, it definitely changed my mind. The movie captures the emotional changes one goes through after a long career as a detective. As a retired police officer and combat veteran, I definitely related to Sherlock during his darker side. I never knew how many crazy and horrific cases he worked until I researched after. The main characters that told the story did an outstanding job along with the stunt/ fight team! I don't want to spoil anything but you definitely have to get out and watch it if you're a horror, thriller or mystery fan!

CJ Goodwyn has hit his stride! His best movie to date! No matter how much you love or hate Sherlock Holmes, this is a whole new take on the classic character, a dark and thrilling vision. The acting, cinematography, and score have made this a must see. It's interesting to dive this deep into the psyche of a detective who couldn't win them all, and the depths his mind could go to. Especially when depression and addiction add to the madness. Les Best is haunting. Michelle Masker, Taylor Ann King, Benjamin Regan, Jon Rich, all the cast did a great job in bringing us to the past and making it believable. Independent cinema is still the best movie making.

I personally enjoyed the "darker" take on Sherlock Holmes. Originally envisioned a horror type setting from Sherlock after reading The Hound of Baskerville when I was younger. In addition to that, I also thought seeing vulnerability and insight into some of Holmes' personal struggles added a nice human element to the overall film. Les Best's performance was captivating as Sherlock along with Taylor King's. Thought the villain character was creative too. It's impressive that this is an indie film. I do know the director won San Antonio director of the year in 2024 and look forward to seeing more of his work in the future. Overall enjoyable film experience👍
