Toen ik hoorde dat ze met Kerstmis een nieuwe Sherlock Holmes-film zouden maken en dat Rupert de hoofdrol zou spelen, was ik heel opgewonden. De trailers zagen er veelbelovend uit.<br />Helaas keek ik toen naar het programma en ik was echt teleurgesteld.<br />Het verhaal was saai en het voelde gehaast. Ik was ook teleurgesteld over Everetts optreden, dat niet de vonk of energie had die Jeremy Brett had toen hij Holmes speelde in de tv-serie.<br />Helaas denk ik niet dat het zo goed was als The Hound of the Baskervilles dat vorig jaar was, met Richard Roxburgh als Holmes; hij was veel beter.
When I heard that they were making a new Sherlock Holmes to be shown at Christmas and that Rupert would be playing the lead, I was quite excited. The trailers looked promising.<br /><br />Unfortunately, then I watched the program and I was really disappointed.<br /><br />The story was dull and felt rushed. I was disappointed also with Everett's performance which lacked the spark or energy shown by Jeremy Brett when he played Holmes in the TV series.<br /><br />Alas I don't think it was anywhere as good as The Hound of The Baskervilles that was on the other year, which had Richard Roxburgh as Holmes; he was much better.
