For those who don't know, the TV show Dr. House, MD (or just "House") is based on Sherlock Holmes and his friend Watson, with the characters renamed to House and Wilson.

So, having been a fan of House, the TV show, for a long time, I'm growing bored with it. It's neat that the main character can solve medical mysteries and find cleverly hidden clues in people's lives. But I've grown so tired of watching that miserable person manipulate coworkers and meddle with people's lives. Then I watch the movie Sherlock Holmes. And it's the same stuff with which I'm already bored.

So this movie had that going against it.

Then the mystery was impossible. I mean, there's no need for the audience to even try to figure out anything in the movie, because it's all far too complicated for you to solve. Kinda defeats the purpose of a mystery movie.

And then the story was haphazard. Each scene seemed to pop-up out of nowhere. There was no logical tie-in from one scene to the next. I'd bet you could take all the scenes, shuffle them in a Yatzee cup, and dump them out, letting them land where they may, and the movie would make about as much sense as it does now.

Any good story - particularly where a mystery is being "solved" - the audience should be right there with the main character, thinking ahead, knowing where we must search next. We should just barely predict the next location. But instead, it's all so random seeming.

Other than that, I admit, RDJ's body was impressive. My lady friend enjoyed that part of the movie. But even for free, I'd never sit through this movie again.
