You're gonna be bothered by how cool I am.

Appropriately enough, written by a critic whose alias on Ain't It Cool News used to be that of Holmes's arch-nemesis. Moriarty, known these days as Drew McWeeny.

Here.

The heart of the matter is thus:

If you want to see the old Basil Rathbone version of Holmes, or if your loyalty lies exclusively with the Jeremy Brett interpretation, or if you want a genuine reinvention/subversion like "Murder by Decree" or "The Seven Per-cent Solution," I can understand that, and I would warn you to stay away from this one. If, on the other hand, it's the character you love and you'd like to see someone try to reclaim it from one overbearing interpretation, a la what happened with Daniel Craig and "Casino Royale," then I'd advise you to check out "Sherlock Holmes" as soon as it opens. It is an uncommonly spry thriller, both mentally and physically, and positively drunk on the work of Arthur Conan Doyle. It may not be a Holmes for everyone, but Holmes it is. Undeniably.

Good to hear. :)
