Bait and Switch....

Wow, I watched this bore fest to the end.

The only reason I, and I suspect the majority of people who watched this was because of Sherlock Holmes.

Yet this movie had very little or nothing to do with the original stories, the original characters, etc. Putting "Sherlock Holmes" in the mix was just a way to market a movie that nobody would have watched otherwise.

I love all things Holmes, or should I say I USED to like all things Sherlock Holmes, that is no longer true after wasting my time with this film. This film managed to take a remarkable character like Holmes and inject him into a very unremarkable movie/story.

if it was any good they'd have made an American version by now - Hank Hill
