Sherlock Holmes : A rather biased review

I believe I have just witnessed the ultimately- most 'endearing' movie of the year. I really liked the 'friendship' theme hidden beneath all those muscles and mystery. Not that i have any other thoughts of any other movies screened in 2009 (at the moment - cause im still so jaded)
Sherlock Holmes blew my mind cold! like, literally. And i'm not talking about the jokes. The movie was classically Holmes-y and very detective-y. The plot was intriguing and the characters were all total dolls(means very easy to like). I just love the way Robert's character messes with Jude's. It was a real LOL.

Watson(Jude) just risked his own life to save the seemingly oblivious and ungreatlful Holmes(Robert)

Hurrah!! to the person who decided to pair up Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law together. Their combination was rather electric!!! Robert being the (+) charge and Jude a.k.a Mr. Watson(the pharmacist!* get it?! wahahaha) as the (-) charge, i could have sworn i saw some yaoi sparks flying on screen! Ok, no la~ sorry i imagination got ahead of me. opps.
So the movie is a MUST SEE! and what i adore most in this film is the pathetic unrequited love of a man, (Holmes) to his B.F.F (Watson). Friendly love - to be more specific, dont worry guys this movie ain't a Patah Belakang Gunung its pure humorously plotted action with a supernatural twist. No pesky romance nonsense. (which was FANTASTIC, im just so sick of girl boy lame romance lol)

Even in serious scenes like this (which is totally NON HALAL) they manage to squeeze in some real LOL-ing humor!

One of the best scenes is the 'lepas geram session at the wrestling ring'. Owhh.. all those muscles~ all those yumminess.. i tell you when a man puts in so much effort to look THAT good, good girls like me can only play my part by ooogling~ and giving appropriate sound effect that demonstrates awe and wonder - when the time is right.


Not only am i a B.I.G fan of Mr.Robert (Iron Man~ Tropic Thunder~), i too am a fan of muscular-genius-very-skilled-in-ninjutsu-black-haired men.. or was it taijutsu? hmm.. Ok, so maybe this is the part where i try to sell the idea to the male population that reads my blog(despite how minute it is, it is NOT navigable).
The movie has interesting kick-ass action. The fighting scenes is something very uncommon and the director (Guy Richie - Madonna's ex hubby) managed to make it comically yeng! Other than that, the female supporting actress is one nasty-hot-tight villainess- ish (that word does not exist) She is sort of like the nice piece of mint leaf on top of the super yummy dark chocolate fudge(that would be a parable for Mr.Robert) with hazel nuts (that would be Jude Law).

Robert in Tropic Thunder - He's a man playing a man who's trying to be another man

Here he is in Iron Man. Cant wait for Iron Man II!

Although there were some downsides to the movie. Like how poorly developed the main villain is, and how redundant some characters are and the ridiculously exciting 'to be continued' ending .. NEVERTHELESS!! The rest is for you to judge~ So, GO WATCH!

hehe~ i know, i'm shameless..
