Sherlock Holmes – the movie

We went to Newbury’s new Vue cinema for the second time yesterday. It was great to see the lobby full to bursting as people queued up to get into (I think) Avatar and Sherlock Holmes. We saw Sherlock HolmesĀ amongst a full house for that screen.

It’s a great film. Beautiful to look at, some superb music, action packed, fast moving, with the usual Holmes intrigue and a very exciting ending.

Robert Downey Junior is superb (and even his English accent seems convincing) and it’s great to see a shedload of brilliant performances from British actors such as Jude Law (as Watson), Mark Strong, Eddie Marsan and arch-luvvie James Fox.

"There is a refreshing frankness to the musings of Liberal Burblings which single this blog out. The ability to not mince one's words is highly prized here and, when combined with the ability to profane without insulting the reader's intelligence, is excellent. Whether pondering on the state of the Lib Dems, the country or the world at large, you can rely on Liberal Burblings to tell it like he thinks it is." - www.politics.co.uk

The stage is in darkness and clear
For raising the curtain
And no one's quite certain whose play it is

And the three men I admire most:
The father, son, and the holy ghost,
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died.
