Reaction to Sherlock Holmes

This movie takes place in 1891 and well I don't believe that any of the dialogue really matches up with the period of the time, I do believe (and i'm one of the few that do) director Guy Ritchie did an actual decent job with this movie. The movie he made wasn't such a quality film that explains Sherlock Holmes in a whole but a film that showed how "B-A" Holmes was, like he was black opps or something. I actually like the way Ritchie portrayed the characters in this film, he put his own little twist on the characters kind of. A lot of critics didn't review this film well because this is really not what Arthur Conan Doyle wrote about. I enjoyed the action packed film and didn't care so much about the quality of the film.
Let's begin with Robert Downey Jr. I am one who believes his acting in this film was just as good as his acting in Iron Man. His thought process which is commonly shown to the audiance was one of the coolest things about this film. It shows how the laws physics are used to brake bones, destroy organs, and get a KO, oh yeah all that is in slow motion then it shows it all in real time and noise and is electric. Jude Laws role in this I thought was amazing. As most critics thought his part had to much action, I thought it had a perfect amount. Most critics thought Watson's part should only be a know knowledgeable detective. I like how Ritchie portrayed him as an action packed detective who happens to be a genius.
