EXAMPLE OF REVIEW
TEXT
 Sherlock Holmes (2009)
Robert Downey Jr. And Jude Law tried to express unforgettable images o Sherlock Holmes and Doctor
Watson in this bold new film version. In G. Ritchie’s “Sherlock Holmes” the legendary detective shows not
only his ummatched intelligence, but also considerable physical training as well.
Entangled evidence, amazing deduction of Holmes and his lively mind combine into an exciting series of
exhausting events. The director Guy Ritchie represents a fascinating adaption of one of the world’s best
detectives. Meet the new Sherlock Holmes!
The plot is follows: Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) is rather depressed because of the possibility of
Watson’s (Jude Law) marriage. His mood is also combined by the absence of interesting cases. Trying to
relax, he invents a silencer, does not go out of his room, participates in fights without ryles and plays
violin.
However, they need to complete one last task and witness an execution of a serial killer, who had created
an aura of magical mystery around himself. Lord Blackwood (Mark Strong) frightened everybody not only
with his hypnotic look, but also with awful patterns on the walls of the camera. Watson successfully
discovered the death of the hanged man, but suddenly it becomes clear that Blackwood has risen from the
dead and began to kill again. All of this looks very intimidating in the support of mysterious rituals.
Tre are many obstacles that prevent unraveling of this case. Watson is ready to leave his partner for his
beloved woman. Holmes’ girlfriend, Irene Adler (Rachel McAdams) is a criminal fraud, who appears with
a playful smile on her beautiful face, and tries to fool the genius detective. Then, it turns out that Adler is
subject to some person.
All in all, the film of Ritchie is great, full of amazing costumes and supplemented by a very pleasant
soundtrack. This movie is the medicine for all fans who are craving to taste the exciting story of Sherlock
Holmes. New Holmes and Watson are different, and it’s the most interesting movie’s feature!
