Customer Reviews of Sherlock - Case of Evil
okay Case of Evil is okay. It's not really Holmes, but it's got it's moments. I liked the cast. Holmes fans will probably be dissapointed. Non-fans of Holmes won't probably watch it. It all plays like a missed opportunity. Who knows who this was made for, but it could have been worse.
Not traditional Sherlock-but still a treat
Thought this story presents a younger Sherlock Holmes-who's character and appearance are quite different from the works of Conan Doyle (or the drawings of Arthur Paget)it is still a very good story which maintains the viewers interest throughout.
The Holmes in this story is rather sexually amoral--but the fate of the woman he loves at the hands of Moriarty-provides a plausible explanation for Holmes' later apparent disinterest in the fairer sex. In this story we are also given a reason for Holmes' original addiction to Opium.
James D'Arcy is far from my favorite Holmes-but his performance is adequate as long as one doesn't expect Jeremy Brett. The actor who portrays Watson is also adequate-though not outstanding. But, Vincent D'Onofrio is perfect as the evil Moriarty--far surpassing his performances on "Law & Order"--though a little "over the top"--his Moriarty is perfect-at least in my opinion.
Though some may dislike the revisionism--this is a very good story and well worth watching and owning!
swinging shagging sherlock
I'm amused by the reviewer's who claim this is what Doyle intended. Oh yeah, Doyle wanted Holmes to be a swinging guy engaging in threesomes. That's exactly what Sir Arthur wanted. There's nothing sterile about this Holmes! Just kidding. This is diverting, but not true to Doyle's detective. More fun perhaps, but not right. The cast here is solid for what they are given, but Matt Frewer is still the "best" in the weird Holmes category.
