This movies is spell binding. Lots of action some scenes especially at the end are very scary.
Deals with a bunch of smugglers that have a secret code. Many people are killed by this secret organization that uses business men and others to visit China on so called business only to be part of the smuggling gang. They smuggle ancient Chinese artifacts.
One of the killers is known to have climbing skills to get up 4 or more flights on a building. He leaves codes written in yellow paint on things in the room of the person he kills. This story is about a very expensive object that was smuggled into the country and then stolen by one of the smugglers. These smugglers and their friends are targeted by the gang that leaves a black locust on some of the dead.
This is a unique new Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. It is a modern day version, no horses, no candles.
Cars, cell phone and computers are in this movie. Sherlock and Dr Watson have a kind of humor about them which makes the story very refreshing. Benedict Cumberbatch is tall, slim but too much dark curly hair. He talks to himself a lot to figure out the clues. He is likable but too arrogant and wants to show others how smart he is. He talks to the police with no respect and tells Inspector Lestrade how much he/Sherlock is needed by them in "The Study of Pin".
This is disappointing. Other Sherlock Holmes always had respect for those they work with. Martin Freeman, Dr Watson is nice, polite and humble man. He makes up for the Holmes bad manner.
These episodes have great music with Michael Price and David Arnold. It makes the story exciting. If you get the chance watch it.
