I think it's going to be a really cool movie. I don't know how the tone will compare to traditional Holmes. My mother is obsessed with this character, and so I grew up with all the different versions on my television. I have to say that I always found them to be pretty boring. What this means is that, being a Guy Ritchie fan, this is probably the best way for me to actually connect with the character. However, people like my mom will probably wonder why it's been so stylized.

I think from the trailer we can tell that Ritchie has made more of a standard adventure movie, and less of a Ritchie movie. If you have seen his movies you know how strange/unique his style is. I see from the clip that he's still going with hyper-slow punches, but I get the feeling it will still be a bit more...normal?

Looking forward to it. RDJ rarely screws up...On screen.
