Sherlock Holmes

My personal view on the film was it was very clever and sophisticated. Through the camera angles and techniques used throughout the film such as the music, colour and lighting its clear to tell a lot of effort was put into the making. Therefore to fully understand the concept of the film you have to sit down and concentrate it isn’t a light hearted film and at times can become confusing. Due to this it makes the film become very adventurous and interesting and kept me on my toes and in suspense. A range of different special effects where used making the film more enjoyable and added more of a thrill to the ending scenes in particular.

Sherlock Holmes is directed by Guy Ritchie, it was released on the 26^th December 2009.  It has been rewarded two Oscars and many great reviews the film was a great success. Robert Downey Jr played the role of Sherlock while Jude law played his side kick as Dr John Watson. They both played convincing roles and made the film seem more realistic.

Another original idea is that the film is set in the Victorian times which make it stand out from other films that are set in modern times. Due to it being set in olden times it becomes relatable to older generations it has a wide range of audiences as younger people would enjoy it as well. Although the downside is that because Its set in olden times the lighting can be quite dark and dull at times making it harder to see in certain scenes. Over all I would say I quite enjoyed the film considering Its not my taste. I would recommend it to people due to the fact Its an intelligent and interesting film.
