He’s joined by strait-laced partner Dr. John Watson (Jude Law), a reluctant participant who’s just looking to settle down and get married. Their case: solving a series of murders with a Satanic motif, as well as figuring out how the lethal Lord Henry Blackwood (Mark Strong) was able to rise from the dead following his execution. Downey’s accent falters at times, but he otherwise provides an entertaining portrait of a genius who’s only happy when pushed to the limits of his ability. Law is the real star of the show, a far cry from the previous depictions of Watson as a comical bumbler. Rachel McAdams also appears as a woman from Holmes’ past, but she’s largely there to help set up the sequel. There’s way more action that you’d expect, including plenty of chances for Holmes to demonstrate his skills at the martial art known as Baritsu. Look for the sequel–and an all-out battle with Professor Moriarty–to hit theatres in December of 2011.
