No Shit Sherlock
Another particularly short review. One word, genius. This movie is about a consulting detective named Sherlock Holmes. You might have heard his name elsewhere before but never as badass as this.
Storyline wasn't really clear and all but it's not the main focus anyway. The plot was quite awesome I'd say but there are events that are insignificant to the storyline but it does reveal more of the character and their god damn funny and it prevents the whole show from being too linear.
Characters in question, Sherlock is fucking awesome. You'll know why if you watch the movie. This is what makes him THE Sherlock, not detective Conan. I won't really reveal anything about the characters but you should be familiar if you ever read the novel series of this show.
The music was also darn awesome, it fit right into the scene. Hans Zimmer has contributed more than just a music to listen to when we're shooting russians outside the white house(Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2) It's also very noticeable even through the heat of action in the film.
This show doesn't lack humor or action and sometimes does both at the same time. It's somewhat slapstick at times and freaking ridiculous but it does get you laughing even if you seen a horse everyday in your life.
To summarize, 9/10 would be appropriate for this. There's a few subtle flaws in this show but nothing to worry about. Awesome show and most likely there will be a sequel.
