Miscellaneous Movie Musings the Sequel

[Alex]

Sherlock Holmes wasn't horrible (and I'm not bothered by the buffed up Holmes as it isn't nearly so present in the movie as in the trailers; and the books do refer to Holmes being a quite accomplished pugilist in a time when there was no such thing as boxing gloves) but it was too long and not very interesting in terms of the central mystery. An awful lot of time was spent setting up the sequel.

A Single Man - I was simultaneously bored by the movie and captivated by Colin Firth's performance.
