If you love Sherlock Holmes movies, then we finally have a chance to enjoy these played by an actor that can merge the character with the action deliver required by modern audiences. My take on Sherlock Holmes is the character was created by Sir Doyle as a result of Jack the Ripper murders in White Chappel. The times required a detective that could piece the puzzle together and solve the crime; no matter how disconnected the pieces were. Now with Robert Downey playing Sherlock, let's start with my area Martial Arts. The last time I witnessed a physique like Robert Downey's was Bruce Lee. The fight scene where Sherlock is fighting in the ring is essentially Wing Chun, and Downey executed it perfectly. There is also a scene earlier in the movie where Downey maps out what is required to disable one of the bad guys; which in the real world is exactly what you do. Yes fight scenes are set up via choreography; however, Downey obviously isn't just a mindless automaton carrying out a series of clumsy boring moves with all the Hollywood magic thrown behind it. Downey obviously trained for a while which showed in this movie. The movie has plenty of action for modern audiences, yet had some thought provoking moments, as well as some hilarious scenes that make the movie a great buy for any movie goer. Enjoy!!!
