My favorite movie is “Sherlock Holmes”. This is a movie I watched
recently in cinema. It was a very thrilling journey through time. The film was
based on a novel, with the same name. Except the great story, the actors were
great. They really make you think it is happening. The main character wasn’t
like the one in novel, it was the complete opposite, his assistant Dr. Watson.
Who is very fat in the novel, isn’t showed like that. He is Sherlock’s
conscience, very handsome, younger man, just like Holmes. In the film, he is
trying to prove that magic doesn’t exist and that all that happened wasn’t
because of a bad magician, and he did it. The whole movie is exciting and I
didn’t want it to end. I really liked the movie and I could watch again and
again... I think that’s what makes a great movie, when it’s every time thrilling
as the first time you saw it.
