Although not in the same league as Avatar, Sherlock Holmes is still a great movie. In spite of the fact that Robert Downey Junior is an American playing a Brit, he does a pretty credible job. Having been a fan of the Holmes books since I was a boy, I know that the Holmes character is meant to be a bit of a pompous ass. A part that Downey knows how to play to a tee. Jude Law, whom I thought at first should have bee a shoe in for the Holmes role, actually does a better job at playing Holmes loyal side kick. Dr. John Watson. As for seeing Sherlock Holmes in the theater or not.. in this case I don't think its truly necessary. It will play just as well on DVD or Blu-Ray when it comes out. At the same time it wouldn't be a waste of time or money to see it at the big screen.
